Spooks and Sliding Doors
 

Since when can a station controller close the doors on a tube train?

And like the movie, upstairs was Canary Wharf and downstairs somewhere
else (Charing Cross JLE perhaps). Who stole those other sliding doors -
along the edge of the platform [and also the very wide concourse between
the platforms].

Charring Cross doesn't exist on the Jubilee line anymore. It is a disused
station, only used for filming now. They should have changed the platform
signs.

There is a button on the outside of each car that allows the doors on that
car to be closed.

Yes, but thats on each car (sic), the guard controls all door locks
but can this be overriden by the station controller
I expect they can prevent the doors opening, but I doubt they
can close them all

Gosh, I never knew that. NOT.

Gosh, so it would make a good place to have filmed... lets say...
Spooks??

From what to what?

And the station controller can press those buttons, all the way down the
train, from his little cabin on the concourse. I *am* impressed.

Where they were being closed from wasn't specified.

the control room.

Yes it was Charing Cross though JL not JLE obviously!:-)

OT I do watch Spooks as its enjoyable in a CSI fashion, though its
rather annoying that everyone pretends they're making a worthy TV
series rather than fairly airhead entertainment. BTW anyone know what
building is standing in for Thames House on the program?

Freemasons Hall, innit? They only use it for exteriors, after all.
