Hi Paul and everyone else interested in caches at film locations, here are a few from "Princess Bride"

 

GC1EVZ8 Robin Hoods Stride

GCQ0J5 Your nicked

GCJGED Cave dale cache

GC1973H angel beside me

GCZKJ9 Brimham Rocks

GC19X1P Malham Cove

 

There are probaby quite a few more as most of the outdoor scenes were filmed in Derbyshire a couple in Yorkshire and also SW Ireland, I'm not sure exacly where in Ireland as I had nothing to do with those scenes, but the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher are definates.

 

Sorry if I'm giving you locations that you already know.

I never knew you had such a list, perhaps you can add He/She who Dares GC18V4J which the start location was featured in the Davinci Code.

Added- thanks HH.

norsch, can you tell me which scenes were shot at which locations? None of those spots mean anything to me I'm afraid.

Ragley becomes star of BBC

Ragley became a star of the small screen on Tuesday 12th January featuring in the hit BBC 1 show Survivors. Filming took place in July last year when a host of stars, including Max Beesley spent three days at Ragley. The Great Hall was tansformed into a dilapidated Hotel where the characters sought refuge.

 

Recognised some of the scenery, but haven't done any of the caches on the estate set by Wrighty (WWW4-Ragley Estate) so don't know how close they are to the filming.

One scene had a shot of a derelict barn, of a style only used on the estate! (Barn style, not derelict style ) which made it obvious to me where it was filmed!

 

The road to the south of this cache Scott of the Antarctic was used as the scene of a crash, and an orchard nearby was used... (If you watched, it's where Roger Lloyd-Pack -of Trigger fame!- was tied up to the tree.)

Wothorpe Towers was used as a Doctor Who backdrop for an episode back in the late 80's. It's now the location of GC1DD1P, The Sign of Four

 

Cheers,

The location of Under Iron has been in many films, TV programmes, documentaries and adverts, but the most famous is probably when Richard Hanney evades the police in the 39 Steps.

Which also includes the location forA Nautical Mystery, There are many more for the 39 steps, but I don't have the time to hunt them all down.
