Location, Location, Location - Thurs 5th Sept - East Dulwich


Recommended Posts

Thought we'd let you know that our beloved East Dulwich is being featured on Kirsty and Phil's LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION on Thursday the 5th September, 8pm, channel 4


We had the pleasure of having some filming done in the pub so fingers crossed we will make the final cut.


A heads up, we will be running a competition on twitter on Friday 6th for those that tune in and have an eagle eye paired with an impeccable memory......or bbc iplayer!


The prize will be a bottomless Saturday brunch for two with unlimited hot drinks, a top notch brunch and as much toast and brunch cocktails as you fancy.


With love and excitement


The Great Exhibition

I hope they don't show Sydenham as an affordable alternative. The less people looking to buy here the slower the prices will go up, and I need them to not go up too much between now and next year.


That and the fact I don't want people who's target was East Dulwich to be my neighbours!

I think it may feature what was my home.


The lovely Kirsty was trying to film a closing shot on the corner of Marmora & Scutari with the Shard in the background as I was arriving home. Belatedly recognising her, and as she was standing almost under our "for sale" sign I asked if she would find us a buyer. That didn't happen but I did invite her and the crew to film from our roof terrace where the view of the Shard was better.

I've always thought it seemed like an incredibly pointless show... especially at the moment when there is so little to choose from on the market. And the way prices have been going, the last thing we need is extra publicity! Still, I suppose it's fun to see your area on TV.

Giving it some thought - WhickerMan perhaps to reflect the new West Country location

I'm not anti East Dulwich at all, I'm from there.


I am anti stupid TV Shows like this telling the world "if you can't afford East Dulwich, try these surrounding areas". I'm from East Dulwich, and I can't afford to live there. Fine, I accept that's the way the world works. I am hoping however to buy somewhere next year, and I have really fallen for Sydenham (been here 6 years now). A show like this can start a rush for the area for those who can't manage ED Prices (who the Hell can), and I don't want that.


I have nothing against the average Joe who lives in ED. If I won the lottery this weekend though, I'd buy in Sydenham not ED. More for my money and nicer housing stock.


Having said all that, if they're looking for the types of houses on Marmora Road, they're way out of the sort of price range I'd be looking at anyway. Those houses are beautiful!

Hey Marmora Man,


Have looked longingly at the roof terraces as per your soon to be 'ex-home' ...any chance of getting a look see at the view from your terrace before you depart???


I'm no celeb, but love living on Marmora Road, would be interesting to see it from a different perspective other than my garden flat view!!

Seconded! I currently have a view of speeding 63 buses and my garden. Go on, please?

    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
    • Hello, I'm looking for an entertainer for my 9 year old son's birthday party. Looking for someone who can organise some games for the kids as my son and his friends are quite active. Regards, Sue
