@ Nightingale- Recognizing the HH set pieces was really funny and weird at the same time. I turned off the movie after 30 minutes or so. I can't stomach that kind of stuff.

That's the kind of thing that made Michael Landon order the Little House on the Prairie set destroyed:

I totally forgot about that ending!

The interview linked below goes into more detail about why the LHotP set was destroyed. Landon didn't want it used in future commercials or other programs.

May have been a spectacular finish, but imagine all the pointy rusty nails littering the landscape today?

I don't know if this is the same model builder, but I remember a guy who built model replicas of television series sets. Found this link!

For me as a true Doctor Who fan, it's got to be the Tardis. In all it's forms. I visited the current one in Cardiff, Wales last year. What a treat.
