I’m curious what Mallards looks like in this adaptation. The only thing I didn’t like about the 1985 series was the pink stucco house that was supposed to be (and definitely wasn’t) Mallards.
shareIn this series they have used Lamb House which is the house Mallards was based on
shareThe house in the 1985 series was a block away from Lamb House, maybe they couldn't get permission to use the original.
shareMallards in the 1985 series was the Swan House in Watchbell Street.

Now that I've seen this I realize that in the new series, Diva's house that Mapp has for the summer is the very same Swan House on Watchbell street. A nice little surprise for the fans of the earlier version.
