She tries to shelter but is threatened to be moved on by museum guard . . . Manuel Gurtner spotted not Paris but London and Chiswick House.
I was lucky enough to have a nicer day of it. The south-eastern façade of Chiswick House, as approached from Burlington Lane W4. SJ

Ferris and Drake depart for the continent from St Pancras in NW1, in the days of yore. It should have been Victoria at that time, shouldn't it?
But nowadays, after a spell a lengthy spell dpearting from Waterloo, they do depart from St Pancras. Life imitating art. SJ

Ferris on the Accademia.
The Salute church in the background is on the extreme left of the film shot. The wooden railings clearly visible: this is the only wooden bridge in Venice, hence easy to spot, with thanks to Phil and Willi Gray who sent in this happy shot. (SJ)
