Film Crew on Peckham Rye (East Dulwich side)...

[Rowanofski]

Morning Chaps/esses.

Just seen a big old film crew setting up shop a few doors down from me in one of the big grandiose Victorian houses overlooking the Rye (just down from The Gardens/The Clockhouse). I was in my usual manic rush for the bus so didn't get to ask what they were filming for. Does anyone know?

[jimbo1964]

They were filming Ashes to Ashes in Burgess Park last week.. Keep your eyes peeled for 70s motors.

[AllforNun]

They are filming an insert for the new bond film. They need to re-film a scene that was originally set in one of the failed baltic states, its a fight scene set in a dilapidated children's playground. Instead of flying everyone back out there at great expense they are doing the re-shoots in the playground in Peckham Rye Park, the location scouts reckon it has a similar feel to it. x

[PeckhamRose]

Oooooooh how exciting.

Was there a catering van?

Always good food on films sets.

Just make out you're an extra and grab a plate of grub.

You might get away with it!

I can see this being one of the great trivia questions in years to come.

As well as that, filum buffs will be trying to spot the joins, and then there'll be James Bond people going to the playground in order to mate.

[Perkulator]

Mate as in Coitus?

[AllforNun]

no as in cell.

[dulwichmum]

OHMYGOD! Was King Daniel there? Dont tell me that I have missed out on seeing his manly form in the "flesh" so to speak? *Swoon*

[andypandy]

Is East Dulwich twinned with Vilnius? And if we are comparable to a failed baltic state why are my mortgage repayments so high?

Peckham Rye actually, wish it was in ED then the Lib Dems may have upgraded it far quicker than they have. I also think you may find that Vilnius is far from failed city, power house of art actually.

I'n hugely impressed you've used an upper case 'c' in 'Coitus'.

Most people these days don't give a f@ck about that sort of thing.

[Marmora Man]

Can this really be the case - the new Bond film opens in 14 days time, surely by now it's all edited and finished with copies being run off for distribution?

[AllforNun]

er.....i meant the new advert for the tea...........you know brook bond.

[Moos]

AFN, your wit appears to have fallen among thorns. I laughed, anyway.

[tibby]

it was advert for bold washing powder

not completely implausable a friend of mine worked on the special effects for King Kong, went on holiday Bangkok and got offered a copy of the DVD, problem was that at that point he hadn't even finished the effects on the film

I'm very worried about you DM. You're having a turn; get someone to put your head between your knees and it will pass. Then have a nice cup of tea.

Just what I was thinking :)

[AllforNun]

right now i get it, 1356 hits a rising : if i link politics with showbiz then it really does pull in the punters, no wonder Gordon brought back Mandy !

[PeckhamRose]

According to my Peckham Rye Park Tshirt, it's in SE15!

And in my latest version of the Oxford English Dictionary they've gone and omitted the word "gullible".

[AllforNun]

It has been happily neglected in SE15 for many many years, however now that it is really being used by the folk in SE22 things are starting to change. No doubt they will be shifting all the amenities towards the SE22 side ! The moment you walk past Cafe and up though the trees you will suddenly notice, rusty lamposts, a rusty fence, broken signs and a barely functioning Zebra crossing. And lets not forget the derelict splash pool soon to be filled in moved......

[PeckhamRose]

Eh?

"and a barely functioning Zebra crossing"

Works perfectly! I use it all the time!

[AllforNun]

Ok then rosy take 2 photos of each crossing and post them on this blog, no words just the photos - include the stripes and the lights - start a new thread.

Ps. glad you are still breathing
