London Film Location Guide

Are you curious as to whether your London post code was the film setting for where Bill Nighy got attacked by zombies in the 2004 film Shaun of the Dead, or that scenes from three of the Harry Potter blockbuster movies were filmed at a site near you? London is one of the most vibrant and versatile film locations in the world and has provided some of the most stunning settings in film history. This fascinating guide covers the whole of the London metropolis area by area, so you'll be able to find streets where you live, work or play, whether in Chelsea, Greenwich or Whitechapel.

With 'then' and 'now photographs, actual scene grabs from films, and a comprehensive film and street index covering over 750 films and 1500 London streets, this is a delight for both film buffs and London enthusiasts.
