Along the street, Henry watches a Young Woman as she passes. Identified by Tetramesh, this is Marylebone High Street in W1 facing north with the corner of Weymouth Street in the background.

Pity about the Harley Street parking sign obscuring the top of the dome of The Prince Regent at the top left: I should have crouched another few inches. SJ

The traffic is continuous. (PW)

In flashback, Henry's Wife returns home from the shops as the narration continues. "Could you imagine if Henry would dare to be unfaithful? Of course not! But you'd be wrong, because that's exactly what the poor chap did once." The Kilburn High Road end of West End Lane NW6 recognised by Richard Bennett.

Reggie slows down as he approaches Elizabeth's apartment.

Declining the offer of a coffee, Reggie drives away after suggesting that they meet at the weekend for a flip in his aeroplane. The name above the numbers over the door is Hall Court.

Anticipating their next meeting, the fashion model watches Reggie accelerate away in his expensive car.

A few days later, Reggie and Elizabeth arrive at the airfield where his light aircraft is kept. Denham Aerodrome near Gerrard's Cross in Buckinghamshire.

Some months later, Ted pushes a pram through the park with Shirley (Louise Pajo) and Barbara. Found by Richard Bennett, this is Queen’s Park NW6, next to the Children’s Farm, looking towards Kingswood Avenue.

A new building and plant growth in the farm area has all but covered the original scene causing Richard to stand on a bench for this shot.

The odd family come to a stand before Ted breaks the fourth wall to tell the audience that "Things can work out if fate's on your side. So take a tip from me, fellas. If you've got a problem with the other woman, try introducing her to the wife." Richard Bennett identifies Queen’s Park with buildings on Summerfield Avenue in the background.

With foliage now completely obscuring the view from the park, Richard stood on the pavement outside the park for this view of the background street.
