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.

      I-watch found

      By Yan52 · Posted

      I was sitting on the park bench yesterday opposite north Dulwich station and found an Apple Watch hanging off the corner. I have brought it home and charged it hoping that someone might use ‘find my’ to locate it. Equally happy to be contacted this way to return it to the rightful lender / they just need to say what colour/kind of strap it has. If you can think of a better way to return it / find its owner then please advise. And/or feel free to share on other local fora.

      Up the reform

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      Precisely DR it’s entirely understandable to conclude one is so disillusioned by Labour for Tories, it must be time for someone else  That  is an entirely reasonable position But if the next step is to then transfer your vote to a party full of charlatans, snake oil salespeople and racists? Then  you stop being reasonable and start being thick and/or racist i understood why Tories took power in 2010. I feared it was an error but I wasn’t castigating people who voted for them tories (then, not now) and Labour are hamstrung not by civil service or EU but by a weird media and a weird voting system in an age of social media.  The answers don’t seem to be coming from them yet but voting reform will only damage the country internationally and internally  the Tories may yet regain power but are currently led by a madwoman, with a madman positioning himself to take over. Will take years for them to sort themselves out labour are making errors all over the shop but are at least in the ballpark of sane governanc.  In no way should this give them a free pass but in 2025 there genuinely isn’t anyone better  (and current polling for reform is meaningless - in any general election be it 4 years or 4 months their lack of accountability and standards will become all too clear)

      Cox's Walk new bridge damaged!

      > Or else it's a relatively thin trunk? Or a rather thick old trunk, covered in leaf growth?  Look at the damage caused to the end and right hand railings.  NewWave, any chance  of loading your neighbour's photo here?   Or anyone else with some good focused photos, from various viewpoints if possible?
