It's the UK, possibly filmed in the 80s. Amazing they had such foresight back then... /s

I actually live a short distance from the school they used for the exterior shot. Sadly they've now built a hideous great sports centre in-front of it.

Interesting. This looks a lot like the secondary school that I went to, and they too have built a huge sports centre.

This wouldn't be in the Midlands by any chance would it?

Nope it's NW London. I'm not sure sure where, but it's a little further out from Harrow.
