If you have any information regarding this production, the locations or, even better, some comparison shots please contact us. Images submitted must be in Landscape orientation, as would be seen on the cinema screen, not Portrait.

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.

Thompson and Andrews enjoy Manx sunshine: this is The Nunnery (I love end credits) just outside Douglas, Isle of Man, on the Old Castletown Road.

Also seen in Chromophobia and Stormbreaker. This is thanks to Wiki and will have to do until we obtain an original photograph. SJ

Dogs out of control in front of The Nunnery, once owned by Robert Sangster and now by the IoM International Business School. The building also features in 'Stiff Upper Lips'.

Not a bad matching angle, found on a google image search. Again it is hoped that an original will replace this as soon as possible. SJ

Baldwin meets Andrews while Firth appears aloof. Nice pool rather tucked away in the corner.

Baldwin is a much loved star: love the 50s look to the cameras and hats. I think these gates may be set dressing.

Baldwin and Tripplehorn by the pool.

Fans pursue Baldwin and Tripplehorn.
