The power station in the background where Humphrey (Graham Stark) gives his mother's gold ring to Gilda (Julia Foster) is the Lots Road Power Station with its original four chimneys, each two hundred seventy-five feet (eighty-four meters) tall. Opened in 1905 to supply power to the newly electrified Underground railways, it was converted from coal to oil in the 1970s, and due to the lower emissions from gas, the numbers of chimneys needed was reduced, so two were removed. The station stopped generating power in 2002.
