Endless Night

The sweep of the Isle of Wight, part of Hampshire until being given county status two years after filming.

Now. RJ

A mysterious figure in the idyllic spot.

Spot the sign? Bennett on chauffeuring duty.

Yes St. James's Street, London SW1. Original still from 29-09-2008. SJ

And there's his motor.

St. James's Street looking towards Pall Mall, SW1. Also seen in The Breaking of Bumbo and Three Hats for Lisa. Original still from 29-09-2008. SJ

And here's his passenger after some successful shopping.

Economist Plaza, also seen in Blow Up, I'll Never Forget What's 'isname and Sebastian. Original still from 29-09-2008. SJ

The Rolls now parked in a humbler street when Bennett calls on his mother. Unknown yet, but in the meantime Pascal Liger directs us to his website shadow1967.weebly.com which lists the Rolls' several film and TV appearances.

An establishing shot on the Amalfi Drive, Italy... More accurately, shot in Positano from Via Guglielmo Marconi, part of the winding Strada Statale Amalfitana, towards the San Giacomo church identifiable in the background on the right. Manuel Gurtner.

Albergo San Pietro, Positano on the Amalfi Drive, Italy.

A (much) improved angle on my original first added 31/10/2008. SJ

Bennett fishes out his lunch including a bottle of wine: that's going some at midday in charge of a Roller. Reverse pov at the albergo.

Awkward taking it from the coach but this is the nice shot of ubiquitous scooters. SJ

Bennett descends to the terrace of the Albergo San Pietro.

It's still there but this is taken from the drive above. Originally added 29/09/08. SJ

Another view from the terrace... and more precision from Manuel, "To the left of Hywel Bennett, the tiny Li Galli archipelago can be seen in the distance, belonging to the municipality of Positano."

A lot of sea and coastline, east of Positano. Originally added: 04-11-2009. SJ

And again; this is where Bennett meets architect Oscarsson

An interior but an important chance meeting. The Wardens of Amsterdam Drapers' Guild aka The Syndics by Rembrandt van Rijn, 1662, in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Or perhaps a studio mock-up?

While we debate, here's the real thing taken by RJ in the Rijksmuseum.

Bennett becomes disillusioned with his client in Amsterdam. In the background can be seen Gemeente Theater, which just means community, and I'm wondering whether this is really Amsterdam. Verdi's La Forza del Destino is thought to have a "bad luck" curse.

First guessed as Grim's Dyke House. Peter Wilton correctly disagrees: no side of the house matches this picture and the style is different. Was it the house in The Collector?

South Downs? Steve Rattey says; On the Isle Of Wight just above Brighstone where Strawberry Lane meets Lynch Lane is a car park. Walking west on the lower footpath until you cross the footpath into Westover Down. This shot was taken with the tree line on the hill just behind and is facing south. Latitude 50°39'36.43"N Longitude 1°25'25.61"W.

Bennett meets Mills at Gypsy Acre.

One from RJ in roughly the same spot.

Bennett's back.

Now. RJ

An old hag warning about Gypsy's Acre in front of the house seen above.

Bennett arranges to follow Mills on his bike into town.

Tea and this is the dining room of The Edgwarebury Hotel now Laura Ashley The Manor near Elstree, a very popular filming location. Exteriors of the hotel can be seen in ‘School for Scoundrels’, ‘The Devil Rides Out’, ‘Spider’s Web’, ‘Never Too Young to Rock’, ‘Stardust’, 'Sons of the Sea', ‘The Rough and the Smooth’, ‘Stranger from Venus’, ‘My Lover My Son’, 'The Liquidator’, ‘Not Now Comrade’, ‘So Evil, So Young’, ‘Mosquito Squadron’ and ‘Night Must Fall’.

Now simply The Manor Elstree. The stained patterns in the window, where Bennett and Mills are sitting, are still there. SJ

Bennett follows Mills home into London. Lancaster Gate, London W2 also seen in 'Strip Tease Murder', 'Part Time Wife', 'The Broken', 'Murder Without Crime' and briefly in 'Scandal'.

The east side of Lancaster Gate. SJ

Bennett parks his moped.

Facing towards Hyde Park. SJ

Visit no2 to Gypsy's Acre.

This is a good match from Steve Rattey.

Bennett takes a call when Mills lets him down.

Replacing Andrew's off-angle shot from 2014 which established this as Grim's Dyke Hotel off Old Redding, Harrow Weald. SJ

Mills on way to meet Bennett on the South Bank.

Jubilee Gardens, SE1. Four Weddings and a Funeral, A Warm December et al. SJ

Bennett reading a newspaper by the wall.

Jubilee Gardens. SJ

They meet. Bennett has found out that she's an heiress.

The Millennium Eye has interfered with the now. SJ

The honeymoon in "Wales." In fact looking north from 32 King Street, Tring in Hertfordshire, towards the King's Arms. (SR)

No sheep in Tring today - just cars. (SR)

Bennett and the family lawyer Sanders.

As above. A London park with boating. Battersea? Dulwich? Kensington Gardens? Serpentine? Andrew thinks the latter but the jury is still out.

Bennett sets up an antique business.

The newly-wedded couple's house designed by Oscarsson.

A visit from aged relatives, Way and Richards.

Bennett sees policeman Davies about mysterious goings-on in the "Market Chadwell" vicinity.

A garden party.

An interesting photo ... snapped in Amsterdam. The Gemeente Theater again. Is that really Amsterdam?

An exterior shot of Grim's Dyke Hotel near Harrow. The building appears in many other productions including ‘The Cherry Picker’, ‘The Haunted House of Horror’, ‘Cry of the Banshee’, ‘Curse of the Crimson Altar’, 'Metro-Land', ‘Futtock's End’ and the Magnificent 6 and ½ children's short 'Ghosts and Ghoulies'.
