Home to Danger

Barbara Cummings (Rona Anderson) is collected from the airport by Howard Wainwright (Francis Lister) after flying in from Singapore.

After watching the two drive off, Lips Leonard (Peter Jones) hurries to his car to follow. Dave W identifies this as the car park of Heathrow Airport, looking over the Bath Road and the houses between Sipson Road and Bolton Lane. The Bath Road houses have now been replaced by Axis House. (RL)

The camera pans with the Humber Pullman Mk III. Old Square in London WC2.

A greener London. (RL)

The car stops outside the offices of Mr. Bruce. Old Square, Lincoln's Inn, also seen in 'Identity Unknown' and 'Eight O'clock Walk'.

If I hadn't been so patient a white van was there most of the day. (RL)

As Leonard draws up outside the building, he is spotted by Wainright.

Now. (RL)

Wainright and Barbara enter to hear the reading of the will.

No open door policy these days. (RL)

Barbara takes a taxi to visit the Orphans & Widows charity that benefited from her father's will. Ray and Ron Glenister spot the 'oft used Queen Caroline Street in Hammersmith W6 with The Cannon public house in the left background. The location is just around the corner from Riverside Studios and can also be seen in 'Deadly Nightshade', 'The Small Voice', 'Cosh Boy', 'Mandy' and 'No Trace' among numerous productions.

Replacing Ray and Ron's earlier Google view. (RL)

Inside, Barbara advises Mr. Hughes that the charity was left £500 and the use of a wing at the family house in Sussex. Ray and Ron have also traced this to Queen Caroline Street, Hammersmith W7, in fact No. 12 Marguerite Buildings, as was . . .

. . . but now long gone as evidenced by this shot that replaces a previous Google view. (RL)

Once affairs are settled in London, Wainright and Barbara travel through countryside that she remembers from years earlier.

The car approaches Greensleeves Manor. Dee Ayo identifies the scene as looking towards Hampton Lodge at Seale near Farnham in Surrey.

Colonel Cummings' daughter is welcomed home by the staff. Facing south from the front of Hampton Lodge, located by Dee Ayo.

Willie Dougan (Stanley Baker) watches leaves the house after telling Barbara of her father's last words. Dee Ayo advises that this is the front of Hampton Lodge, a Grade II listed house dating from 1766.

Robert Irving (Guy Rolfe) and Hughes (Alan Wheatley) arrive after a shooting party is arranged by Wainwright following a phone call from a mysterious stranger. Hampton Lodge on the Hampton Estate at Seale recognised by Dee Ayo.

The three enter and Hughes is shown around the house by Irving. Found by Dee Ayo, this is Hampton Lodge on the Hampton Estate at Seale near Farnham.

Coming out of the undergrowth, Leonard calls to Wainwright. Identified by Dee is this view of Hampton Lodge which, along with the estate, appears in other productions including 'Robin Hood', 'Jack the Giant Killer', 'A Field in England' and 'AA Milne' as well as episodes for television's 'Poirot' and 'Midsomer Murders'.

Members of the shooting party fail to identify Leonard, who was shot as he tried to murder Barbara. Hampton Lodge on the Hampton Estate at Seale near Farnham in Surrey located by Dee Ayo.

Acting on the Colonel's final words, Irving employs the help of Jimmy-The-One (Dennis Harkin) to enter the offices of Cummings & Wainwright.

When drugs and a list of names are found in the company safe, Jimmy, Irving and Barbara seek out one of the addicts in Charlie's Bar.

Jimmy tricks Mick 'the Dope' O'Ryan (Philo Hauser) to make contact with his supplier. The Chancellors public house on Crisp Road, Hammersmith, W6. The street also appears in 'Love in Pawn', 'Wheel of Fate' and 'The Long Arm'.

The Chancellors now. (RL)

Mick approaches the pick up location where he is strangled by Hughes.

As a result of Ray and Ron finding Marguerite Buildings, Queen Caroline Street, Hammersmith W6 in 009 here is the scene again from a different angle, replacing Google Earth. (RL)

When they fail to learn anything from following Mick, Jimmy is dropped off at home by Irving and Barbara. Here they are passing "The Cannon", 80 Queen Caroline Street, Hammersmith, W6 which was also seen in 'No Trace' and 'Deadly Nightshade'. The location has been demolished and the area re-developed.(RL)

Re-developed indeed but I just squeezed the tower of St. Paul's Hammersmith in after all. (RL)

After breakfast at an all night cafe, Irving and Barbara return to Greensleeves. Hampton Lodge on the Hampton Estate near Farnham in Surrey identified by Dee Ayo.

Hughes visits Barbara on the pretense of finding a suitable workshop for when the orphans visit and is shown to a stable block.

Willie watches and then follows as Hughes almost runs away when the two leave the stable.

After Hughes is found to have murdered the Colonel, Barbara and Irving bump into Jimmy in town. Dave W says that this location has been baffling him for "a dozen years", 18 Embankment Place, WC2. To expand on what now could be a problematic identity for photographic purposes Dave explains, "Embankment Place where it curves left to meet the bottom end of Villiers Street opposite the rear entrance to (now) Embankment Station." I suspect that Dave has already moved on to another long outstanding puzzle. (RL)

Having established the location, Dave W provides the supporting shot and used the occasion to confirm his thoughts with regard to the following capture. (RL)

Jimmy makes a quick exit when a policeman approaches. Yes, says Dave, still Embankment Place, but further along the pavement, with the camera rotated to the right very approx 90 degrees. Perhaps a simpler explanation is to say that Embankment Underground station entrance is out of sight right of shot. (RL)

Dave did well to capture the same location from the same camera position (well, + or -) to reveal much change. (RL)
