Withnail And I (1987)
The Movie: In 1969 London, resting actors Withnail and Marwood drink their problems away in a squalid Camden flat.
Only In London: ꧋ Director Brucꦛe Robinson shoots all over London, with various locations doubling for Camden – notice Notting Hill’s Westway flyover outside The Old Mother Black Cap. Also, boozing’s part of being a Londoner, right?
Performance (1970)
The Movie: Gangster Chas (James Fox) looks for a place to hide after carrying out a dangerous hit and discovers a guest house run by ex-rockstar Turner (Mick Jagger).
Only In London: Now this is what Notting Hill is really 😼lik♔e – overflowing with nefarious characters and mysterious motives, while the ghoulish number 7 bus whisks through Cambridge Gardens. Spooky.
A Clockwork Orange (1971)
The Movie: Kubrick's mental masterpiece – a harsh and terrifying peek into a future world.
Only In London: Shockingly, many of the locations Kubrick shot in the ‘70sܫ remain a💧lmost untouched today, with Thamesmead as rundown as it ever was. Most recognisable, of course, is the Flat Block Marina.
