As per the house rules, Steve and Joanne were allowed no guests or music after 11pm and started their day with breakfast at 6am. After one shift, Joanne packed it in and started hitchhiking back to Weatherfield, and Steve was collected by Liz a few days later - much to the manager's dismay. The hotel scenes formed part of a major location shoot at the Lake District. For the scene of the hotel exterior, the Inn on the Lake in Glenridding doubled for the Ullswater. Inside the hotel, the reception, bar, kitchen, stairwell and staff quarters were seen, although it is unclear whether these were also shot at the Inn on the Lake.
