[edit] The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
With regard to Gwernol's deletion of this film, having checked, it seems that a street scene has been shot using a builing in Prague dressed to look like "Strand" station, but this is what is now Charing Cross, not Aldwych. Nick Cooper (talk) 23:45, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
- I am sure, though, that interior scenes of an Underground station had "Strand" signs that looked authentic to the 1940s along the walls. Either the station was "impersonated" with a very well constructed set, or else they did use at least one of the platforms for the scenes in which they are whisked into and back out of Narnia. Should we acknowledge that at this point, or wait for confirmation that it was the station itself (though why they'd build a set to mimic this station when it's clearly in use as a set already is beyond me).

- No, the platform tunnel seen in the film is a set. The most obvious way to tell is that the patterned tiling appears on both sides of the tunnel, while at Aldwych and other similarly decorated stations it appears only on the platform side and not the track side of the tunnel. Also, the tunnel seen in the film is straight, while Aldwych is curved. It's an impressive set, but a set nonetheless. Nick Cooper (talk) 12:37, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Broken wikilink
The "Old Proposals" section has a broken wikilink and I can't figure out how to fix it. M.nelson (talk) 03:42, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
