One That Got Away, The

Impressive row of towers, a gun site in a park. London? Hyde Park? Yes indeed, Dave W advises that this Hyde Park, looking across Park Lane with those towers of Grosvenor House providing the revealing evidence. (RL)

How could so many of us allowed this to remain unknown for so long? Dave supports his identification with the aid of Google Earth View. (RL)

Supposed to be Cockfosters, north London suburb. Looks too South Ken to me with Victorian style buildings, and walled front gardens. Cockfosters is too 1930's and only blossomed with the coming of the Underground Railway. Could it be Hornsey, with the Muswell Hill slope starting in the background of 002a?

Patrick Brown identifies this as Addison Road, London W14, between Holland Park Av and High St. Kensington and has took this shot to support whilst going down "memory lane".(RL)

Dave W returns to this film to tell us that he has found this to be the northern entrance to the 'in and out drive of 6 Addison Road, London W14, all of which has now been lost by the Woodford Square development. (RL)

Just south of the current southern drive into Woodsford Square, here's a wider view of the development with the former north gate roughly to the left of centre, now back gardens to the terrace. SJ

Northern entrance to the 'in and out drive of 6 Addison Road, London W14 - see previous capture (RL)

A closer view in a vain search for the former opening. The postbox is where the south gate to no6 was. Further south to the right and out of shot is the former no7 which appears in Face the Music and then there's Debenham House, no8, still standing. SJ

6 Addison Road, London W14 identified by Dave W - see previous captures. (RL)

About here! SJ

With new development and avoiding trespass, I settled for a shot looking southsouth-east to show the aforementioned former no7 and current no8 Addison Road to the right. SJ

Meant to represent Grizedale Hall in the Lake District, but from the photo from the site www.u-35.com, none of the windows, portico or balconies match up. IMDB suggests Trent Park mansion, part of Middlesex University in Hendon.

The site www.bbm.org.uk has stills from the film but this house is not the one on the u-35 site. Is this rumour becoming truth by repetition, perhaps?

Trent Park on Cockfosters Road, Enfield in Barnet. Until 2012 a campus of Middlesex University and also seen in 'I'll Never Forget What's 'is Name'. Location confirmed by Paul Atkinson and address verified by Dominic Cox.

Also oga004/c. Not the same angle I'm afraid, but this is the site of Grizedale Hall taken in June 2009. It is now an education centre for the forest. Some of the outbuildings and retaining walls seen in other screen grabs can be seen in the background. Picture and info by Stephen Manship.

Supposedly the gates and perhaps the back area of Grizedale Hall, perhaps leading to the road to Satterthwaite? No photo alas, says Stephen Manship, but I am 90% sure this main entrance still exists, but on the opposite side of the road to the old hall. It is now the main visitor's centre for the forest with restaurant, exhibition and gift shop. The view is taken looking east from the courtyard and the road is indeed the Satterthwaite to Hawkshead road.

Ray Glenister has found the location to be the Buttressed wall in Grizedale. (RL)

The Buttressed wall in Grizedale once again says Ray. (RL)

The Buttressed wall in Grizedale once again but now with one of the Grizedale Hall tower's clearly visible says Ray. (RL)

Can this be Satterthwaite?

No, Grizedale in the Lake District. Image copyright Google Streetview.

Manoeuvres in Grizedale, here Ray advises, marching south on the road to Satterthwaite, the group would pass Grizedale Hall on the left, just 50m from the intersection. (RL)

The prisoners are halted for a rest in 'the usual place'. The entrance to Bowkerstead Farm, Satterthwaite in Cumbria, Located by Andy.

Andy sent this image of the same location.

Franz von Werra lies on the stone wall as his fellow prisoners conceal him.

A re-enaction from Andy.

A horse and cart approaches as von Werra prepares to drop over the wall. A reverse shot from image oga005d of the road running south from Satterthwaite in Cumbria.

Another comparison from Andy.

Satterthwaite?

Yes, it is Satterthwaite. Sorry the picture is not the right angle, but you can make out the church tower to the left centre of the image. Taken by Stephen Manship.

The road to Satterthwaite?

Before leaving Grizedale, Ray tells us that this is same intersection with the truck as Capture 16 heading south along the road to Satterthwaite. Grizedale Hall is some 40m on the left. (RL)

A house on the moors, Lake District?

Jeff Stone advises that "This the Travellers Rest public house on the Birker Fell road from Ulpha in the Duddon valley, Cumbria. The single storey building in front to the right of centre is The Browfoot Room (Ulpha Village Hall) and the property at the junction is Browfoot Cottage".

Avoiding trees and other obstructions, Chris Mcgugan took this shot from across the field seen left in the screen capture adding that the former Travellers Rest hasn't changed much but is now in use as holiday accommodation while the Browfoot Rooms are still used for events.

This is The Travellers Rest public house seen from further up the hill. Location found by Jeff Stone.

A railway station, two road bridges passing overhead in the distance. Jonathan Horswell is a bit of an expert on stations and has identified the location as Gerrards Cross station in Buckinghamshire with the nearest bridge carrying Packhorse Road.

Packhorse Road bridge was controversially rebuilt as a covered way to accommodate a new supermarket. (PW)

More of Gerrards Cross station at the end of Station Approach off Packhorse Road in Gerrards Cross, a location that also features in 'Easy Money'.

Due to redesign of the platform fixtures and fittings, this is the best angle possible now. (PW)

Jonathan further advises that the station is in a cutting and, although it has been considerably altered, once had four tracks passing through.

Rationalisation in the 1960s saw two main lines removed from between the platforms and this platform widened to meet the realigned line towards London. (PW)

County Garage can be made out on the advertisement on the stairs. Jonathan Horswell explains "The long gone garage was once located at the junction of Packhorse Road and Station Road near to the station".

No advertisements now. (PW)

No locations here but an aircraft recognition chart on the wall, a Stuka, German dive bomber. Hundreds more of these cards and posters are in stock on www.soldierssoldiers.com

Chris Doyle tells us "This looks like the old guardroom of RAF Northolt on West End Road in Ruislip which was demolished in 2009. The houses in the right background are still there and, behind the sandbags on the left, is Bridgewater Road. Steve Pendlebury tells us that the surviving houses are RAF Northolt's married quarters and remain in place but screened by trees. When John Tunstill was stationed at Northolt, in about 1960, the entrance was off Western Avenue and Chris Doyle confirms that there was another entrance on Western Avenue.

Antony Blair provides this comparison taken from where the original entrance stood on West End Road with houses on Portal Close opposite.

Could be very good sets or really Canada . . . but, in fact, this is a matte. Christopher Matheson draws to our attention an extract from the 'Liverpool Echo' Friday 22 March 1957 that says "...Hardy Kruger went off to Cumberland for 'The One Who Got Away' after location scenes in Sweden." Accordingly this may be Sweden. See also the Header Section above. (RL)
