Plenty of narrow roads through the arches though, or where would they
film all the car chases in The Bill?


Selsey?


Watching repeats of "The Sweeney" I've seen at least one scene that was
obviously in St Albans, which has often impersonated other locations,
from "Softly Softly" to "Morse".


Are these all produced at Elstree Studios by any chance? St. Albans
would be quite conveniently close for location shots if it's got
somewhere that looks right,

As for "The Bill", it is shot in every
part of London and adjacent areas except for the East End, where the
script is set.


They quite often used to film in Croydon for that, but I haven't seen
any crews working recently. Quite a few other things have also been
filmed in Croydon, and it was also quite a major centre of film
production in the early years of the industry, pre-WW1.
