Just driven past, judging by the fleet of winnies parked up at their unit base it's definitely a feature with some cash behind it and their aren't too many of them filming on location in London at the moment, apart from the St Trinians remake.


Also the location signs all say 'STT Location' so I'd wager it is the crazy girls school caper. Gosh, you may glimpse Mssrs Everett, Fry, Firth and E.Grant, even Girls Aloud :-S and other such acting luminaries around Dulwich this week.

Found this about the St Trinians films on the "Independent" web site:-


"Meanwhile, the famous "gym-slip" uniform worn by pupils in both the Searle cartoons and later films was based on that of James Allen's Girls School in Dulwich, south London, an independent school where Searle sent his daughter, Kate."

"Richard E Grant "


What is the bloke for ?


Why isnt he "resting" more ? I would turn around and march home should I have to misfortune to arrive at the cinema and find that Richard E Grant was starring in a film I had tickets for . What a one duinemsional waste of space - he seems to crop up once a bleeding month on some minor chat show or other and invariably bleat on about his lastest straight to DVD rubbish project and then invariably regale us with tales of his childhood in African and amuse us with some Swahili speech.Very droll Mr Grant.


Just like Tony parsons whines on about what a great time he had in the '70s when he was at ( what he reckons was ) the cutting edge of journalism and that his dad was a paratrooper, Richard E Grant can be relied upon for a few minutes plug and filler somewhere or other.


Even Withnail & I - maybe the best thing hes ever done - is now about 45 years old - actually, can you think of anything else hes done since then ?


no, me neither.


bah.


This will be a rubbish filum. mark my words

Like George Lucas, I think you have to forgive REG on the basis that the world would be a slightly poorer place without the one thing he has given us. (no, not Argos)


Tony Parsons, on the other hand, really is a total arse. Every time I see him moaning away with his arm casually slung over the back of the interviewee sofa (usual on 'This Week') I just want to leap through the screen and pour hot tar over his genitals.

Why does THE CAMBERWELL CARROT scene always get all the limelight? I know it's a big spliff (tee-hee!) and therefore mildly amusing, but it's hardly the defining moment of a film with too many good bits to mention.


W&I is a one-off.. just great from start to finish.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
