Apparently, for tax reasons they decided not to film it in Philadelphia PA. With its grid system and architecture Glasgow does a pretty good impersonation, although I'm sure people who live in Philidelphia might think otherwise.

The Royal Observer Core was established in 1925 to identify hostile aircraft.
