Why 1989? Why that year? I want to know

Because that's when I was born.

We've all gone off-topic here.

Please get back on topic from here on out.

Erm, I'd say you would be a bit tight - tfl says on the tube/walking it will take 20 minutes to get there. Any particular reason why?

[JHyde]

Just because they're the two locations in 7.8

Spoiler: show

that the Russians have to ferry the nuclear bomb between.

Are there any locations in London/England that people would like to see used that haven't been yet? I'd enjoy an Oxford/Cambridge one just so we could look at all the nice buildings. But I don't know what terrorists might be hiding out there!

Don't know about terrorists, but I'd think there are many ops from foreign intelligence services in the area if indeed the UK secret services recruit heavily in these schools. Perfect place for unfriendly countries to try to get double agents into MI5, MI6, GCHQ, etc. Could make a great ep.

That's true. I'd also really love them to use that fantastic balcony above the House of Commons that they used in House Of Cards. Spectacular view second only to the Tower of London by all accounts. Maybe Harry and the Home Sec could meet somewhere other than the Home Sec's office?

That was a great location.

Here's a challenge:

Location of the posh house in S8E3, the one where the Bendorf group meet?

[Beatriz]

Difficult challenge, Nitrus, but I'll try

Meanwhile, some Locations from 8.04:

Spoiler: show

A very easy one, who doesn't know about Piccadilly Circus and Eros
26:49, Lucas writes his address in a postcard to Oleg.


15:04, Harry meets Samuel Walker (CIA) near Hammersmith Bridge (at first I thought it was Albert Bridge, but wrong bridge)


I am trying to figure out where Harry and Ruth sat

[almh]

Got it Beatriz! (Sorry, I recognised the place )

Spoiler: show

the place where Ruth and Harry sat is opposite that Queen's House, Greenwich - I did the Thames Walk past there.
