where was auf wiedersehen pet series 1 filmed
Auf Wiedersehen, Pet
Wayne ( Gary Holton ) describes himself as a Jack the lad . He is a carpenter ( or `` chirpy chippy '' ) who is proud of his Cockney roots . His obsession with women often lands him and his friends in trouble . Initially without transport he relied on friends for lifts but by series 2 he has bought a red BMW 520 . At the end of the first series , Wayne marries Christa , ( played by Lysette Anthony ) , a secretary at the building site . According to his son , who knows little about his life , Wayne died of a congenital heart problem in 2000 , and his part in `` The Magnificent Seven '' was replaced by his illegitimate son Wyman . Gary Holton died in 1985 after overdosing on drugs and before the filming of the second series finished . Often , Wayne 's absence in the second series is explained in dialogue with phrases like `` He 's gone to town to look for girls '' . The series was not filmed in chronological order so he is present in the final episode yet absent during earlier Spanish indoor scenes . The last episode is dedicated to Gary Holton .
