sorry !!! but wasnt only fools and horse's filmed in bristol ???

Nelson Mandela House is the tower block right next door to Ashton Gate, home of Bristol's less discerning football followers.

The ground even appeared in one or two shots, which was odd because there isn't any medium sized football ground in Peckham afaik :D

The batman and robin sequence on their way to the fancy dress party was filmed in Broadmead
 
'Peckham High Street' (Broadmead at junction with Horsefair/Penn Street)



'Peckham Town Hall' (Coroner's Court, Backfields, St. Paul's)



Leaving the scene of the attempted mugging outside 'Peckham Town Hall' (running onto Upper York Street, St. Paul's; Lakota nightclub just out of sight to the left)

 
Pursuit of bag-snatcher from 'Peckham Market' (running up Hill Avenue from Almorah Road, Windmill Hill)



Taking a breather from chasing the bag-snatcher (Victoria Park, Windmill Hill in background)



Pursuit nearly at a close (convenience store on St. John's Lane(?), Totterdown)

'I Saw You', a romcom-style TV drama with Fay Ripley, filmed in part in Victoria Park, Windmill Hill
 
One of my friends was paid £150 to let C4 set up lights in her garden - as they were filmer Teachers next door!
From my old office we always used to see Casualty being filmer...all the ambulances said Holby City on - a very exciting distraction from work :D

Wasn't that at the back of the VOSA (was Vechicle Insprectorate) buildings on Croydon St. just off Lawrence Hill R-a-B?

Yep. Squeezed between the back of VOSA and the First Bus depot. I think that's where a lot of the external hospital shots of the hospital car park/entrance to A&E are filmed.

AFAIK, they film most of the indoor scenes in a warehouse set on the Kingsland Trading Estate near Old Market. You'll know it if you pass it, 'cos whenever they're filming, there are catering vans parked outside. ;)

The number of times in Bristol I've seen what I thought must be a real accident ahead, only to read Holby City on the side of the ambulance... :eek: :D
