Judging from the interview with Francis Matthews, where he's
shown wearing headphones round his neck it's clear that the
interviews took place at the studio during the voiceover
sessions. Don't know where the studio is though.

I must say those sepia-toned scenes of Piccadilly Circus and
Covent Garden in The Long Sleep really affect me. I wander round
those places two or three times a week, and every time I see them
in 1970 on UFO, I just long to jump into the TV and look around
the West End of London, thirty years ago.
