We are aware that there are films on the site that were added when the criteria for the inclusion of locations was very different from today and, as a result, there may be scenes missing from some productions. Please do not forward additional screen captures to us but bring the detail to our attention, for we do, and are, 're-addressing' these older entries as time allows.

A brief second unit or stock shot of Brighton to confirm the location of Vera’s flat.

The Upper Promenade, Brighton, viewed from opposite Queens Hotel on Grand Junction Road. On the right is Ship Street and in the centre is the Metropole Hotel on Kings Road. The Metropole lost its distinctive spire in the 1960's when two new floors were added. My first attempt at lining up this shot was taken from the left side of the promenade, but now having seen the film I realised that it should have been viewed from much nearer to the road. (SD)
