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.

  • Capture 1
  • 'Now' required

Danny Dyer (Moff) on the way to see Emma Hall (Trixi) as he cycles down an alley way. This is one shot that I thought would never get solved but website visitor Rikki Powling cracked it! This alley way runs between Kelvin Road & Boverton Street in Cardiff, very close to Ninian Road and Roath Pleasure Gardens, CF23 5ET.

Lorraine Pilkington (Lulu), Nicola Reynolds (Nina) and Dean Davies (Lee) on their way for a night out walking under the railway bridge that seems to be along St Mary Street, Cardiff, CF10.

That part is all pedestrianised now! (the road still runs just to the left of the shot). This location is only a few streets away from the shot of the stadium in Very Annie Mary.

The full crew are assembled and heading along Westgate Street, Cardiff, CF10.

The shot was taken a little further back from the shot in the film.

Lulu is about to encounter a ticketing entry issue at 'The Asylum' club. The Asylum Club (exterior) in reality is 'Emporium' on the High Street, Cardiff CF10 Wales.

Building seems to be partly closed now.

Lulu, Koop (Shaun Parks), Nina and Moff doubt the negotiation skills of Jip on the High Street, Cardiff CF10.

The Lloyds bank has been replaced with Italian food!

Danny Dyer working on his come-down along King Edward VII Ave, Cardiff CF10.

A bit quieter today. Cardiff has of course been made a famous location for Doctor Who and Torchwood. The BBC also use the city for Casualty and also some parts of Gavin & Stacey.

Lulu and Jip (John Simm) discuss recent events along St Mary Street, Cardiff, CF10.

The clock of House of Fraser is the stand out identifier. The street has been heavily pedestrianised.

The couple embrace along St Mary Street, Cardiff CF10.

The Greggs Bakery is still on the corner. Lack of a camera crane or a selfie stick makes an exact shot match tricky.
