On a more serious note, the Felixstowe Dock into which Jim Brading rowed the Imp,
and which Ransome drew, is no more; it has been filled in and the dock buildings
drawn by Ransome demolished as part of the Felixstowe South reconfiguration.

I used to think that as time passed, and more and more AR locations changed beyond
all recognition, or were demolished altogether, that it would become impossible to film
the whole series.

Yet today, with CGI and digital matte techniques, becoming ubiquitous. It would be
easier than ever before to recreate the lost world of the Ss, As and Ds.

Come on BBC, let's have all the books filmed in loving detail and broadcast as a TV
series. I predict that they would be a hit in the UK and massively popular in Japan.
