When in Aberystwyth I took my family around many of the sights from Hinterland including the police station
Portmeirion.
Also I’ve been through Goathland, the not even really a village on the way to Whitby which Heartbeat took over. And I was at End Of The Road when they filmed the festival scene in the forgotten Tamara Drewe film. Do the establishing town centre shots in Welcome To Wrexham count?

They were filming Superman outside my office yesterday so there.
They filmed an episode of Doctors at my old office
Ooh saw them actually filming Mobius on Oldham Street and go to the pub they filmed some of the Full Monty tv series (and then promptly shut for a refurb that over ran into the beginning of the season)
when this place opened in Manchester i was invited to the opening night coz my mate worked there. it was interesting, they had like a demonstration of motion capture technology and a talk from Peter Saville. we were having a few drinks after and my mate went ooh hey come and have a look in here! youre not really supposed to go in but its fine. so we went through this door and it was a sound stage set up with the house from Fresh Meat. very surreal, just this full student house built inside a big empty room in a warehouse.
also used to work in an office in the northern quarter and walked down Dale St when it was set up to film the first Captain America. had no clue what was going on and why everything looked different, there was a big board at one end of the street and weird posters on the walls and stuff. saw this video later that day

I have been to Casa Loma in Toronto where they’ve filmed loads of stuff, most notably the Evil Ex no.2 scene in Scott Pilgrim.

Had my photo taken in Wayne’s basement at Paramount King’s Dominion (and sat in the Mirthmobile).
Have walked down the Goodnight Sweetheart alley hundreds of times (next to The Royal Oak on Columbia Road).

The estate I grew up on has been in a few films and TV shows, occasionally had to dodge camera crews when out walking the dog
More glamorously, I walked around Dubrovnik shouting WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS?! at the height of Game of Thrones fever.

I was at the pier they filmed the climax to Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa" yesterday.
I also have an annual membership to Chatham Dockyard as it is just down the road from me and they film some of the outside shots in “Call The Midwife” there. They also have this building there:
Which has been in a number of movies and TV shows including the Loki series.
