Another shot of the same.

Round the corner in Parliament Street, home to now to the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, but still part of the same block (seen above) known as Government Buildings, Great George Street. SJ

An unusual one of Baker Street station, London NW1. The station front is also featured in 'The Strange Case of the End of Civilization as We Know It', ‘Ring of Spies’ and 'Dial 999'.

Peter was at the location to take this ground level comparison.

Richardson arrives home at no37. Possibly a set as this is a stagy narrative on the whole.

Richardson goes for a walk. That sign may well say Sydney Road ... Sydney Road and Church Road, Teddington. The corner shop is now a house, 28 Church Road. Thank you John Scott.

Tim Wingham confirms with a comparison Church Rd Teddington looking south across the junction with Sydney Rd. (SJ)

He wanders further ... "The Park Hotel, Park Road, Teddington, TW11 0AB." John again

Park Hotel is little changed from the 1952 film, observes Tim (SJ)

  • 'Now' required

He stops and sees this scene as police search for evidence.

Richardson arrives at the police station to make a statement ... John Scott says Teddington Police station in Church Road on the corner with Luther Road. This has now been rebuilt but the distinctive properties next door remain. (RL)

Tim shows the characterful houses still standing beside the police station's rather featureless civilian replacement. Church Rd, Teddington, again, just south of its junction with Luther Rd. (SJ).

A close-up of the station.

A close-up of the police station replacement to finish up a quartet of Tim Wingham's comparisons. SJ
