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.

An additional still provided by Will who writes, At 43 mins 24 seconds in, there's a view of Whitgift Street in Croydon. The structure is the underside of the Croydon Flyover and the NCP car park.
A temporary google view to prove Will's identification. The building on the right is new and was formerly waste ground where fake corpses were piled along with the bulldozer. (SJ)
