Well it's clearly London Marylebone, apart from the bottom right screen which seems to think it's been transplanted to Tain.

Got to be Marylebone.

The other thing that's odd about the Wick departure is that it's 24 minutes after the previous one. A gap that long doesn't happen at Marylebone, particularly not in the morning peak.

I'm guessing this is from the episode of Miranda on tonight, yes?

Correct.
Would this have not confused passengers on the day though?
The train leaving the platform also had Wick on its electronic screen.

Marylebone is the default London station for filming.
The second episode of Gavin & Stacey had Marylebone masquerading as Paddington.

Although St Pancras was used quite a lot pre-redevelopment.

If I had an All Line Rover I would cancel my plans for the day and catch that train

Wouldn't fancy a trip all the way from London to Wick on a 172
A 168 wouldn't be too bad either.

Especially one that has the cab attached at a peculiar angle. Only one platform has been announced, defo Marylebone (calling all olympic sprinters: your train will leave platform six in two minutes). And yes, I do realise how the system works there so not often possible to show any plat nos until the last min.
