Can anyone point me in the direction of Pelham's house in this excellent film. It looks a little like Ham Common or Kew Green to me ?

Certainly - it's Hadley Green Road, Barnet, EN5. The name of the house in the film (Fairholt) is actually it's real name. If you PM me your e-mail address I can send you some recent photos.

Thanks for the pics. It is indeed a great film with some fantastic old faces. One of Roger Moore's favourite roles apparently.

Bit daft of him to use the M4 to get home then, wasn't it ! Always wondered where this was. Thanks Mariocki.

That's the wonderful geography of films where every trip anywhere near London has to go past the Houses of Parliament and London Bridge (often in the same shot) and, in more recent films, the London Eye as well.

Geography in films doesn't often have much in common with geography as we know it

Brannigan anybody ? Mind you, the title sequence for TMWHH is otherwise pretty good for continuity - it's just the destination that's in the wrong place.
