To The Devil a Daughter

Kollde (Constantine Gregory) watches as George and Eveline de Grass are ferried across to a remote convent in Bavaria. Manuel Gurtner advises that "More precisely, Kollde is waiting on the shores of the Chiemsee, the largest lake in Bavaria and often called 'the Bavarian Sea'. In the background are seen the smaller of the two main islands, called Fraueninsel, which houses a Benedictine nunnery."

Father Michael Rainer (Christopher Lee) escorts Catherine Beddows (Nastassja Kinski) from the convent. Manuel continues "They leave the nunnery, called Frauenwörth, through the northern portal towards the graveyard."

The excommunicated priest escorts the young nun to the convent's jetty. Manuel Gurtner explains that "Lee and Kinski are passing the mighty clocktower, partly seen to the right."

George (Michael Goodliffe) and Eveline de Grass (Eva Maria Meineke) arrive to take Catherine to London. "The jetty is located at the southern end of the Fraueninsel. In the background we can see the so-called Krautinsel, an uninhabited island, located between the Fraueninsel and the Herreninsel. The latter houses the splendid Herrenchiemsee Castle, built for Ludwig II of Bavaria." Location detail by Manuel Gurtner.

Catherine's foster parents greet her as Father Michael looks on. Manuel tells us that "We are still at the jetty, with the clocktower of Frauenwörth in the background."

Completing his description of the location, Manuel identifies this as being back on the mainland, where Kollde drives Catherine, George and Eveline to the airport of Munich and continues "This is Gstadt am Chiemsee and the Mercedes-Benz 250 is coming from Seeplatz as it reaches the junction with Breitbrunner Straße and Seestraße."

After Kollde and Catherine fly to London, George arrives back at his clinic to check on Margaret, a pregnant patient. This is High Canons on Buckettsland Lane, Borehamwood in Hertfordshire. Also seen in 'Murder on the Orient Express', 'The Boys in Blue', 'Digby, the Biggest Dog in the World' and 'You Must Be Joking'.

Customary re-development and parking restrictions in evidence as usual. (RL)

St Katharine Docks in London E1, also seen other productions including 'The Diplomatic Corpse', 'The Buttercup Chain', 'To Sir, with Love', 'The Trygon Factor', 'Man of Violence', 'Mrs Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter' and 'The Long Good Friday'.

Even had I been able to a little higher I don't think I would have seen a car. (RL)

The camera pulls back to reveal Tower Bridge to the left and The Tower Hotel on the right as seen from St Katharine Docks.

Tower Bridge is still visible thanks to the walkway.(RL)

To the right stands The Ivory House in St Katharine Docks E1.

Thankfully some things remain much the same. (RL)

The two make their way to John's apartment in The Ivory House.

The exact angle would just have been expensive boats. (RL)

Father Michael, George, Eveline and Margaret's demonic baby secretly arrive in England. The Temple of Music in West Wycombe Park, Buckinghamshire which is also seen in 'Give My Regards To Broad Street' and 'The Music Lovers'.

From behind the same tree. (PW)

A short pan starts as John goes in search of information about the order that Catherine belongs to.

A sort of communal garden now but that must be a new chimney: the east end of Kensal Road, W10. SJ

John arrives at a Salvation Army Hall to speak with the Major. Kensal Road W10. Also seen in 'Say Hello to Yesterday'.

The Cobden Club, with thanks to Rob Beer who found this. Was quite a hip place in its day. SJ

Catherine comes under Father Michael's power and leaves John's flat. The Ivory House, St Katharine Docks.

The name has been removed but I presume it would have been in the middle of the "house". (RL)

When she becomes aware of John's return, Catherine turns from the drawbridge. St Katharine Docks.

A few changes throughout the years, a spiral staircase for one. (RL)

After closing the retractable bridge, John dashes across. St Katherine Docks.

I waited for all the "dashing" to stop. (RL)

The author chases after Catherine. St Katharine Docks with The Ivory House to the right.

Confirming that the staircase has been replaced in favour of a spiral one. (RL)

Christopher Matheson provides this shot of Ivory House from East Smithfield into St. Katharine Docks, London E1. A wider off angle shot to make it more informative and interesting. (RL)

John finds Catherine and returns her to his flat. St Katharine's Way in St Katharine Docks, London E1.

I am sure the speed limit, sign, lights and barrier are in support of Health and Safety. (RL)

Leaving Catherine with friends David and Anna, John goes in search of a means to defeat Father Michael. The Brompton Oratory on Brompton Road, London SW7 identified by James Holmes.

Looking southwest just by Cottage Place. SJ

John Verney returns to his car. In the grounds of The Brompton Oratory with Holy Trinity Brompton to the right.

Those two trees to the left are the same as well. SJ

After killing Anna and escaping John's apartment, Catherine climbs the steps that lead up to Tower Bridge from St Katherine's Way.

I wonder if she had the same trouble with the angle as I did. (RL)

Once more under the Father's control, Catherine heads across the river. Tower Bridge with The Tower Hotel to the right.

I still don't quite understand exactly how this shot can be reproduced. (RL)

Traffic speeds past as the camera's fish eye lens sways across the bridge. This is facing north on Tower Bridge, a location seen in 'Pool of London'.

OK, so I don't have a fish eye lens! (RL)

Catherine runs on until George de Grass finds her. Looking towards Tower Bridge Approach from Tower Hill with the walls of The Tower of London to the right.

I waited for the "Blue Nun" to take this shot. (RL)

John arrives at Henry Beddows' mansion to seek help and is directed to where Father Michael has taken Catherine.

With Catherine now with him, Father Michael performs his ritual. The Dashwood Mausoleum, West Wycombe in Buckinghamshire.

Without a crane, recreating the shot would be impossible so here's an image of the approach to the Mausoleum. (PW)

George stands guard following Eveline's self sacrifice. The Dashwood Mausoleum on Church Hill, West Wycombe. The location was seen in 'Burke and Hare' from 2010.

Certainly recognisable as the same location. (PW)

As the ceremony continues, John arrives and kills George before approaching Father Michael. The Dashwood Mausoleum in Buckinghamshire.

The angle is out due to having to take the picture through bars. (PW)
