The signature colour scheme says a lot here, as does the picture frame on the door and the open cupboards

Do you get the feeling here that geeks might be somewhere nearby? Batman and Superman are standing in front a nice and clean whiteboard

This is almost too easy. Let’s just say it has been running since the 1980s and features a very famous pub

This is slightly trickier but it might help if we tell you that a third season is in the pipeline – and it’s a very glamorous show…
