Can you help:

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.

We see just this one location at various moments over a period of years.

Fortunately we know where it is. SJ

A delivery arrives at Beauclark House from Fortune & Weedon of SW1.

44 is now the Turkish embassy. SJ

During the war, a more austere mode of transport is used to make deliveries.

That's Seaford House, seen in 'The Wild Geese'. SJ

At the end of the film, Joan Heseltine drives away with Tom Gilbey.

And it's Belgrave Square, London SW1. SJ
