Beefsteak 305 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Found this and thought I'd share it with you all http://www.ciaranbrown.com/snasmlocations.html follow other links on there for more info on the film Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,580 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I'd come across it before, but it's a good site to have a look at. Pity he doesn't do a "then and now" with the location which generated a lot of discussion in this thread http://nottstalgia.c...topic=228&st=60 starting at about post #75. It's the closing scene of the film where the two actors are looking out across a housing estate in Wembley, North London, pretending to be Nottingham. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
letsavagoo 972 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I thought when when Arthur and Doreen came out the pictures (cinema), it was the Capitol on Churchfield Lane but the picture of the Savoy on the linked website is very convincing. I'll dig out my DVD and have a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,580 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Twas indeed The Savoy. From the Evening Post at the time it was all happening...... look at the 6th paragraph down http://www.lentontim...960_04_04_d.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mudgie49 401 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 On the last shot,looking over the new houses, isn't there a sign that reads, Simms son & Cooke? I always thought that was Top valley or some where close. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littlebro 234 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 On the last shot,looking over the new houses, isn't there a sign that reads, Simms son & Cooke? I always thought that was Top valley or some where close. The final scene was shot in the Fryent Country Park overlooking Beverley Gardens, Wembley, London. The Simms Son & Cooke sign was a prop.
