 Possibly Fort Amherst?  I haven't found the view in the GTP photo on Google Earth but it looks very similar.

A movie that I really enjoy.  Good fun identifying the locations as they drive from London to Margate.  Like a continuous GTP.   ;D


It is a good movie Johnwalker, I picked up a copy at a local charity shop a few years ago, however I tend to associate the Margate harbour arm with the 'Jolly Boy Outing' episode in 'Only Fools & Horses' which also shows Margate as I remember it in the 1980s.


For the next in my occasional forays into the GTP have a go at this one. I'm off he the Bluebell railway today but will try and monitor if I can get a phone signal!

Margate harbour arm?


You have it Stewie. Its a still from the great movie 'Last Orders'. From left to right Bob Hoskins, Ray Winston, David Hemmings, and Tom Courtenay. With Michael Caine playing the ashes.  :D   
American road movies have Route 66, but we have the A2! With stop-offs at  Rochester, Chatham and Canterbury along the way. Well worth a watch.
Over to you.

Isn't that from a TV program about 4 blokes dealing with the ashes of a friend?  Still have no idea who or where though!
