Production
Seasons 1 and 2 were produced by Terence Williams. From season 3, the producer changed to Jonathan Alwyn, and was script edited by Chris Boucher. Series Four, Five and Six were produced by Geraint Morris.
The fast-moving theme tune for the programme was arranged by Derek Goom, taking motifs and key changes from an original piece by Johann Sebastian Bach, The Well-Tempered Clavier, Prelude No. 2 in C Minor, BWV 847. Bob Cosford was the initial graphic designer who matched the theme tune to opening and closing graphics centred around a revolving police 'star and crown' cap badge which bore the familiar "E II R" device of English police forces, but in place of the force name around the blue circle had instead the generic words "County Constabulary".
Exterior scenes were filmed in the Lancashire towns of Colne, Bacup, Accrington, Nelson, Burnley, and in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. Other locations around east Lancashire and West Yorkshire & the Black Country (Tipton & Dudley) were also used. The series was seen by many as a replacement for the BBC's Classic Police series "Dixon of Dock Green" and Z-Cars".

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“The problem of culture is seldom grasped correctly. The goal of a culture is not the greatest possible happiness of a people, nor is it the unhindered development of all their talents; instead, culture shows itself in the correct proportion of these developments. Its aim points beyond earthly happiness: the production of great works is the aim of culture.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
“Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
