First aired Jan 1986, so filmed in 85. I bought my first new car, 2cv special in 1984 but at the time didn’t recognise it for what it was. So, at that time I assume well before any galvanised chassis’.
I suppose 2cvs were used so much was because they were light and had removable body/panels.

You may be interested in this. Mentioned earlier in the thread Number 2 of 15 Iconic Buildings filmed close up from many different angles never normally seen, and a bit of architectural history along the way.

I have just watched a very interesting program on BBC4. "The Octopus in My House". The scientist had a large aquarium with a Day Octopus who was named Heidi. He studies octopuses in the wild, but wanted to have more interaction with them. He found out quite a lot, with footage of Heidi obviously dreaming at the end of the program. There was also a section that confounds the statement that octopuses are solitary creatures; there is an area where a dozen or so octopuses are living close together in the wild, and these octopuses are obviously communicating with each other.
