the itv film Flood was all filmed in greenwich and charlton with robert Carlisle, the four feathers with Heath Ledger (rip) was filmed on the cutty sark. Londons burning was all local ie woolwich charlton, the dramatic scene in eastenders when andy got pushed of the bridge was the bridge over the a2 linking westcombe park to charlton. John simm filmed a new feature in woolwich last year just down from the town hall, think its gone straight to dvd but would be worth a look.0

mate the yanks get pissed off when they see real history the actual Magna Carta, the log book of the Victory opened to read "and Nelson died".
They should use The British Librarys News paper archive at Collingdale it holds all the news papers mags etc for the Uk and Ireland going back to the year Ff**k Knows When . The reading rooms look like Dickens should be at the reading desks.

Love Greenwich. Best place in London and like me, so many of us probably take it for granted.[/quote]

There's an 70's film, some of it done in Woolwich, starts off with a young girl getting off a routemaster bus by the ferry with a pram, then walking towards a football ground (they used QPR for these shots for some reason) and then a crowd of "yoofs" in flares throw a milk bottle shouting "we want a f****** riot" and then it all kicks off, pram turned over baby killed etc.
Does this ring bells with anyone, if so whats the film called?0 -
even tho i was born in 1980 i think i have seen this sometime trying to look it up now, but youre right about the ferry and stuff cant think why the used QPR alltho if memory serves me right wernt it a night shot at loftus road?0

The shock news in this thread is surely that Curb_it has never been in the Richard 1 before!
She's absolutely spot on though - it's a cracking pub, especially when the suns out and you sit in the garden!0 -
As has been said London's Burning was filmed around Woolwich. During one shoot in the old Arsenal behind Belmarsh, they needed to create a large explosion.
The crew spent several days preparing for it.
When everything went bang as expected. But they didn't warn anybody. The prison went into lock down as everybody thought an escape was going on. Needless to say the LFB and Police were sent in large numbers. The crew had to do some real grovelling!
Also filmed around Greenwich/Woolwich was a medical series called Golden hour. It was filmed on the Glyndon estate and Plumstead common. I lost count how many times the car would drive past the same buildings on route to a call (A bit like Tom and Jerry).
Another tv programme was the Bill.0 -

I used to work at the British Library - the last four years it was in Bloomsbury as part of the BM, and the first four years it was in St. Pancras. Christ I could tell you some stories about the old place that would make your toes curl! The new place is an absolute soulless ****hole0 -
Nice one Guinness0
