The camera tilts up to reveal the upper floors of the building at the corner of Belgrave Square and West Halkin Street. Other views of the square feature in 'The Teckman Mystery', 'The Million Pound Note', 'Foreign Exchange' and 'Doctor at Large'.

Philip Adams (Cary Grant) and Anna Kalman (Ingrid Bergman) leave the Players Club after missing a performance at the Royal Opera House. The Garrick Club on Garrick Street WC2.

Peter took this comparison of one of the last 'all male member' clubs in Britain.

The couple take an evening walk back to Anna's home whilst Carl the chauffeur discreetly follows in the car. The arches lead from Strand to the courtyard of Somerset House in WC2.

The same courtyard now by Peter.

Facing south-west in the courtyard of Somerset House.

Peter captured the location from the best possible angle, unless he moved all the cafe furniture!

Victoria Embankment in WC2. Also seen in 'What a Crazy World'.

A nice after dark comparison by Peter.

One of the Royal Gates in Green Park. Peter advises that this is Australia Gate which stands to the side of Spur Road in London SW1.

And here's his proof, taken on a recent evening.

The Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner in W1. The arch was seen in 'Three Hats for Lisa', '84 Charing Cross Road', 'The Sandwich Man', 'Innocent Bystanders' and 'Strange Bedfellows'.

The same location now by Peter.

The two arrive back at the apartment building and the Rolls draws quietly up alongside. West Halkin Street off Belgrave Square in SW1.
