One of the FRANK drugs ads was filmed by the pond. Some TV series with Lenny Henry as a headmaster(?) was filmed in Church Road, Watford, for the bits outside his house.

 

Murphys mob.

 

I also recall a scene from one of the Superman film's, Superman IV I think, where Superman picks up Lex Luther's car, was filmed on the M25 at Bricket Wood.

Also filmed in Bricket Wood was an episode of Poldark and also this was Peartree Woods from A Clockwork Orange.

 

Part of the video to guns don't kill people rappers do in the carpark was filmed in Watford I believe

 

An episode of The Professionals was filmed at Benskins brewery and an episode of The Persuaders was filmed at The Vic.

 

Midsummer Murders is filmed in the surrounding villages and is being filmed today and probably all week in Chorleywood Bottom.
