Ten years ago today on the ‘Shaun’ shoot, our movie became an Ealing Comedy by default. Ealing Studios in West London had been the home to classic 40′s and 50′s comedies like ‘Kind Hearts And Coronets’ and ‘The Ladykillers’. Now we were hoping some of that magic would rub off.
Ealing is a great little studio and for all its classic film history, it had a lot TV shows shot on the premises, such as the classic ‘Porridge’. In 2001 we shot the second series of ‘Spaced’ here.
As you can see by the page count above, this is also the part of the shoot where we have to cover a lot of ground a day. It got tough shooting on this stage sometimes but we’ll get to that later.
For now enjoy Shaun having a pint at the Winchester and waiting for this to all blow over.
