St.Georges walk used to be used a lot due to the empty units & classic 60s architecture.
A scene from 'made in Dagenham' 0ff top of my head & only about 3-4 years ago a terrorist type film, where theyy actually made it look like a souk !
big tower block in west cronx, main road used regulary for outside the flat shoots in 'peep show'
My old house in central croydon was used for a short film many years ago(never got a penny for it!)
'The Bill' used to love filming around Duppas & under the flyover.

 


Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Yeah, the bill was filmed in Croydon and merton, studio was in merton abbey, used to be down the surrey st market a lot, the peep show flat was next door to cinatras, nearly bought a flat in there back in the day, 28k about 25 years ago, those were the days!

american assasin, was the souk scene film i was thinking of, worth a look just to see St.georges transformation.
1 of the bourne identity films also, although ive no idea what scenes?

The dark knight rises, the joker blows up Gotham hospital... actually the old BT building facing the duel carriageway.

A scene in American Assassin was shot in St Georges Walk made to look like Istanbul.

Croydon also used for an Aunt Bessie's ad.

Apparently, some of The Durrells TV series was filmed in Hurst Way and The Royal Russell School in October 2015.

I once saw Brad Pitt filming a scene for The Devil's Own in Times Square, New York. Our daughter, who was with us, swooned. But I'm sure this is of absolutely no interest whatsoever to anyone!

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
