My Week With Marilyn

[Merton Park]

There is a scene in the film where Marilyn goes skinny dipping with the young co star. It looks very much like the same spot where James Bond moored his canoe with Eunice Gayson in Dr No. Can anyone confirm and where that was shot?

I think the boat scene with Eunice Gayson is in "From Russia with Love".

I had a week with Marilyn. Sadly not Monroe. . .

In reply to Cassidy:

Eunice Gayson was definitely in Dr No.

Just noticed she was in Dr No and From Russia With Love, didn't realise that before. I thought it was Dr No, you may well be right about FRWL. Does anyone know where the scene was filmed?

The clip you are thinking of is in From Russia With Love, Eunice Gayson was also in Dr No, her character is Sylvia Trench, in Dr No, Bond encounters her at the card table and then he finds her in his room practising her swing with a golf putter, she is wearing his shirt and not much else in this scene. He hooks up with her for a second date in From Russia From Love, this time for a picnic by a lake and I would say 100% that it is the lake in Black Park which is right next to Pinewood studios.
