Its a 4 part series and is on last episode at 04:03 seconds in.

Thanks for that. I thought it was quite apt as the Rover (built in 2000) was sitting in a repair garage from the picture that the actress is walking through

Looks like the headlights could do with a polish

Quite often they use cars that belong to the cast and crew on TV drama, my wife works in the industry and her cars have appeared in several shows. She got £50 for her Jetta in some Channel 4 teenage drama a decade or so ago as one of the cast got out of it in shot. Her Volvo can be seen in a dark multi-story in Being Human but she didn't get anything for that (other than free parking, near the unit base for the day!)

I thought that too. Gleaming car but shame about the headlights

Good answer I think that I was staring at her pretend bump and caught the Rover just in shot. It was only their for a few seconds,
