Different story - same place.

Grimm's Dyke House, Stanmore and Edgewarebury Hotel, Elstree both appeared in 'The Devil Rides Out' in 1968. The Edgewarebury was used in the Avengers more than once and in Clockwork Orange. Grimm's Dyke also in the Avengers, Dr Who, and The Saint.

Fawley Power Station (on Southampton Water) has been used a bit - Star Wars: Solo and Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation being two of the more recent.

[Dr Jekyll]

RAF Bassingbourn was the base of the real Memphis Belle featured in the documentary film of the same name. Also represented a US marine barracks in Full metal jacket.

Minley Manor...




In the movie 'Mosquito Squadron', 1969.





In Agatha Christie's 'Crooked House', 2017.


IMDB also says it was in an episode of Endeavour called 'Ride', as Belborough's house, but I don't recall seeing that one.

Thank goodness they missed "The Crown and Cushion" down the road.

Slightly O/T but I suspect the Maroon Bristol (is it a 405 ?) is the same one that was seen in "Phantom Thread" and "An Education"

Nice spot.

[irocfan]

slightly O/T - more of special effect used in 2 different films

When Dekart gets into his police cruiser in Blade Runner the dashboard is, IIRC, the same as the console of the drop-ship in Aliens

Another one is the building used as Holby General Hospital used to be the undercover SHADO HQ in UFO. Not such clear pictures though. Sorry

Beat that anoraks!

Same building turned up in 'Call the Midwife' last Sunday.

The Edgewarebury Hotel was also the gentlemen's club in School for Scoundrels.

(I also did the wedding photography there for a couple once)

What was the factory building in the Endeavour episode?

It looked a bit like an old Victorian water or power station to me actually.

Yes, I agree. That or a sewage pumping station of the same era. I vaguely recognised it but cannot quite put a finger on from where.

I recognised it instantly as I used to live nearby. It's the Kempton Park Water Works, now the Kempton Steam Museum. It's not the first time it's been used and they've also filmed in other locations in the area.

Nice one. But can you can find an example of it being used elsewhere? Hence the thread.

Poirot, in an episode called 'The Murder Of Roger Ackroyd'. When the murderer is confronted by Poirot and Japp, his accomplice furnishes him with a Webley revolver from her handbag and he flees, shooting at Poirot and Japp as they pursue him. My wife was watching it just yesterday...


And in Midsomer Murders it "stars" as the biscuit factory in 'The Killings Of Copenhagen' episode...

Episodes of Red Dwarf have been filmed at Kempton Park.

Stoke Park was also used in a Timothy Dalton Bond film but I can't remember which one.

Brocket Hall in Hertfordshire was used in The Omen, Highlander and episodes of The Professionals and Morse

The lake from the title sequence of Murder She Wrote is the same one that the Apollo 13 capsule thingy landed in
