In which city was it set? Anyone know?
Was it ever explicit?

I seem to remember it being far from explicit... the sort of thing that you were actually allowed to 'stay up late' and watch...

It was set in New York.

Can't recall exactly if it ever was explicit, though.

My research elsewhere has shown it was just a large metropolis on the east coast. Never actually specified.

So it's a bit like Gotham City.

I needed to know for work.

I always had an idea it was Chicago. Or was that St. Elsewhere?

Anyone remember the crap sitcom that ER was originally? I do. It had Elliott Gould as an ENT specialist and it got shown on C4, and it wasn't very good.

RB what kind of job have you got, because if it involves useless trivia, I'm your girl.

It was called E/R and did indeed star Elliott Gould. Strangely George Clooney was in it too.

OK, RHC, test yourself on these.

Where were the following series set:
Hawaii 5-0
The Streets of San Francisco
LA Law
NYPD Blue
Miami Vice
Dallas
Beverley Hills 90523859053759809401

If you get these right, I might sub-contract.
