For reasons too complicated to go into, I need to find out which of the top box-office grossing British films were actually made in the UK (either on location or at a studio). By tomorrow.

I'm talking mainly in the UK here (so Calendar Girls was 75% in the UK, although there are afew scenes in Los Angeles - so I class this as in the UK).

Here are the top films for 2004 and 2005 - I've indicated those which I know, or at laest think I know. Glad if someone could fill in the gaps and/or corrct any errors.

Many thanks.

2005
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (UK)
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (UK)
Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (UK)
Nanny McPhee (UK)

Corpse Bride (UK)
Sahara (I assume Tunisia)
The Wedding Date (UK)

Check the Internet Movie Database (IMDb).
That has much of what you want, especially for such recent films.

For each title, click on the filming locations link on the left hand side of the page.
That will list locations and studios for most of them.

It won't tell you what percentage of the film was made in each location, but it will give you some clues.
