There are many issues with this, however I will not rule it out.

Any further discussion on this topic requires its own thread.

Good grief, I have been researching locations in 4.9 and not getting very far. I have though come across the house in 8.1
Spoiler: show
where Harry was helicoptered in and shot dead sort of
I dont take credit for this though as it was on Wikipedia. Its called Hedsor House and it's in Taplow, Buckinghamshire. Not one for the Grand Spooks Tour 2010 (GST10). Its been used in lots of TV shows though. A photo is below.

Getting back to 4.9 I have found the place where Adam and Ruth go to look at the cash machine and Ruth smiles when Adam gets a phone call. Its Paternoster Square, near St Pauls, in the City. That one wasnt so difficult.

My main difficulty is trying to find Harry's house. After watching the clips of him leaving his house in slow-mo I managed to spot two places, a dental surgery with a phone number on the window 0207 928 5964 and a delicatessen called Prima. Well I found the dentist on the corner of Kennington Road and Cosser Street. Just up from that is the mini mart that Harry and Scarlet went into. Its called Xtra Save. I thought Harry's house would be off one of these streets but no joy. The area facing towards Westminster from there is Lambeth, and seems to be flats. Harry's house has an area of communal gardens to the front, and looking down the road you can either see the Palace of Westminster or its possibly Lambeth Palace, and a railway arch. I will try again at a later time. If anyone else wants to have a look, feel free.

Well done! Hedsor House is a bit far for our GST10 (I like the name Smile it sounds great), yes.

It seems to be a detective work to find some locations!! But it's just wonderful when you find a difficult one!! Big Grin

Yes, but infuriating when you can't! Well done!

A (poor quality mobile phone) photo of H/R Catch restaurant from when I went there for dinner, from 5.3. Best I could do. Sorry.

ooh!! That's great!! Thanks for the picture! Although you didn't enjoy, at least you had dinner where HR did... Tongue

RE: Spooks Locations - almh - 02-12-2009 07:39 PM

Oooh, wow! Sneaky camera skills there Wink (BTW Beatriz, utterly unrelated, I love your icon. Big Grin)

RE: Spooks Locations - Beatriz - 02-12-2009 07:49 PM

That woman on the left could be Ruth Big Grin (sorry for that, my imagination sometimes drifts away)

RE: Spooks Locations - almh - 02-12-2009 07:51 PM

Could be, but what's happened to Harry? LOL
