	Wanted to visit our sons grave this week as it is the week he died, 9yrs ago. The only days we were able to get ther, 6miles away, Dr who was being filmed in the church and the village hall. We didnt want to get mixed up in that, so will have to go next week. Any one else been affected by this kind of problem?

	That's a shame, Jean. They filmed a few scenes of the Da Vinci Code in Winchester Cathedral, which meant no-one could get in for a day or two,

	I work in Fitzroy Square in London and in the square there is a house which is frequently used for filming period dramas. I normally travel up there by motorbike, but when filming takes place the motorcycle bay is one of the parking places given over to the production company's vehicles so, having driven 40 miles up there in the morning you find there is nowhere to park and have to tour the area to find a space.
