RE: Spooks Locations
I think that the offices in 7.5, 24:31 are in the glass building next to the London assembly, anyone know what this building is called?

DANNY - Placements all over the shop. Back up vehicles, chopper support if we need it. Bomb disposal with a signal jammer for Mary’s trademark remote control blasts. And Tom here’s doing the catering. Mate. You are so covered.

New location Big Grin 7.5 1:26
Spoiler: show
Ros driving along a road (Bet you all want to go see this location Tongue)
Aspen Way. Precisely (because it is quite a long road and I pinpointed the exact point Tongue) 51.509223,-0.003605

You would have a photo uploaded but atm this hates me - if you want a photo of the road/view from googlemaps then PM me...

I look at Aspen Way from my desk at work. I don't want to look at it here too! And most of the time, it's jammed up because of a broken-down vehicle in Blackwall Tunnel... Confused

EDIT - I've just Multi-mapped that reference - it is right outside my office! Do the Birds Eye view & you can probably see my car in the car park!

RE: Spooks Locations
I'm going to attempt to upload a photo to pinpoint where the Radisson Edwardian Hotel is on the map. It is at the water's edge, where the A102 label is.

RE: Spooks Locations
Oh dear, you've got me well & truly hooked on this. I've got all my dvds out & started from Series 1.

I've got a couple of locations for you from 1.1:

9 mins in - Tom drives across Waterloo Bridge, with the London Eye in the background. (Toughie that one!)

50:15 mins in -
Spoiler: show
the scene where they catch Mary with the bomb
is at Borough Market, London SE1. The pub in the background of the first shot is the Market Porter. Afraid I can't do screenshots.

RE: Spooks Locations
Ep 1.2 56:05 Car enters Limehouse Tunnel from Westferry Road entrance, London E14 (note - this is not the main tunnel entrance, which is on Aspen Way)

I'm afraid I don't recognise the park in 8.8, sorry.

Prior to this shot, you see Ros in her apartment. That is at New Providence, the horseshoe shaped development just west of the Radisson Edwardian Hotel (although if you look at the satellite view on Google Maps, the hotel won't be there).

With regard to the driving scene, your map reference is spot on. She is passing my office, which is just out of view to the left, as are the Radisson & New Providence. She is driving the wrong way though - if she had just left NP & wanted to head into the city (which she is doing - I can see the Ibis in front of her), she would join Aspen Way at the next roundabout. To get where she is, she must have gone the wrong way first then doubled-back! Big Grin
