Greenwich on the silver screen (& the small screen)

It is often used as Washington DC, USA & other locations.

TV:
ITV: 'Beadles About' made extensive use of a shop located in a small parade of shops where South St. and the High St. meet, opposite Greenwich Station & Prince of Orange pub.
The 'humour' was that a new employee would be left alone in the shop, and a clumsy family would come in and knock everything over.
Channel 4: 'Prospects' about 5 years ago, used Greenwich Park and often had shots of Greenwich taken from the Island of Dogs.
If you know of any films, etc. please let us know.
Thank you for visiting!
