Started watching Fake and it opens up on the bridge just outside of Flinders st station crossing the Yarra.

  1. It makes me a bit homesick

  2. It's weird seeing places I walked daily for work in a tv show.

I'm pretty sure the train line she rides on is one of the northern lines too.

I watched Fisk just after the lockdowns ended I think but I could've sobbed watching it if I was away from Melbourne. I don't even live anywhere near North Melbourne!

I loved Fisk. Such a good show. Same with Utopia. I'll probably be bashed for this one: but utopia is better than the office

It's interesting watching prisoner and Wentworth and seeing places I know well on the tv. The outside of flinders hasn't changed a bit, so I'm pretty sure if I put a graininess effect and fucked with the colour profile on my camera I could recreate the opening scene of prisoner where they show flinders street
