The Bristol house used to film Eighties comedy The Young Ones is on the market.

​The flat has just come onto the letting market and although it may look like any other on the streets of Bishopston, it has its own interesting history.

​The house in Broadway Road was used to film scenes from the popular comedy and landlord Mike Kendall said its interesting past is definitely a big selling point.

​Mr Kendall, who runs Kendall Harper Estate Agents, has owned three of the four flats in the building for five years.

​He said: “People are definitely intrigued when they find out its history. We were offered once by the council a chance to put up a plaque to mark the spot but they wanted £400 from me to do it so we didn’t bother.

​“The Young Ones was obviously a really well-loved series, so it makes people more interested in the property. I knew when I bought the flats that the show had been filmed here and I was a big fan when it was on TV – I think everyone was at the time. It is one of those iconic comedy series.”

​Series producers used the Bishopston property for scenes where Motorhead played outside the house, and also used the entrance hall and stained glass window in filming.

​However, a lot of the internal scenes were filmed in a studio.

​The Young Ones was first broadcast in 1982, on BBC2. The main characters were four undergraduate students sharing a house: violent punk metaller Vyvyan, pompous would-be anarchist Rick, long-suffering hippie Neil, and the mysterious and diminutive Mike.

​Although the series was set in North London, many of the external scenes for the show were filmed in Bristol.

​The flat is up for rent from today at £525 per month and is unfurnished, with a double bedroom, large living room and small kitchen.
