stations used in movies

yes but thier were other stations used aswell

Before your time dstock, but what about 'An American Werewolf In London' (1979)? I think that station is Green Park - the long passageway from the Vic to the Picc where the businessman is being chased.
Death Line was, of course, filmed in Aldwych during 1973.
The 1958 film 'Gideon's Day' was filmed at Aldwych (briefly) and it's colour.
In the 1949 film 'The Blue Lamp', you see Dirk Bogarde being chased accross the Central Line west of White City.
I've not got 'Creep', must have a look sometime!

Some of it was shot at Tottenham Court Road. I have a lasting image in my head of the 'Werewolf' strolling across the booking hall just before the last train one night. I know that there were some rather nice shots taken of its distorted image in the overhead reflective panels in the lower circulating area - I cannot remember whether or not they were used in the final cut.

So what about the harry potter when they were suppose to be on platform 9 3/4 wa sthat as kings cross.

lol, i onli go as far as late 70's lol, but i alsways look carefully when movies feature underground to see if i recognise any

A film called Green Street has a station called Bank in it. However, a 95ts rushed into shot and it was a surface station, so it couldn't of been.

In-fact, it looked like East Finchley, which would be good for filming a shot like that, using platforms 2+3 and having the train come from the depot. But this is un-confirmed!

"Love Actually" (one of my fav films ) featured the Canary Wharf escalators. And "Bend it like Beckham" featured a very extensive shot of the two main characters traveling from Hounslow Central to Piccadilly Circus, I think it was. The stations looked real and the 73ts was in motion, so its probably the most genuine piece of filming on the tube, to actually be used in a film!

As for Platform 9 3/4, it doesn't exist. At Kings Cross between the long distance service platforms, and First Capital Connect local service platforms, they have a plaque and half a trolley stuck onto the wall. But Kings Cross looks nothing like the film, so I imagine it wasn't filmed there!

You are right about Charing Cross (Jubilee) and Aldwych, and that is confirmed. I have no idea about the third one though!

As for the 1972MK1 train, I *think* it is, or its a un-refurbished 1973ts. But looking at it, I'd say a 72mk1!

I've managed to find a list of films that have used or are at least, set somewhere on the tube!

Bulldog Jack used British Museum


3000th post in the section

'Bulldog Jack' (1935) was, like most films of it's day, studio based.

The 1968 cinema version of 'Quatermass and the pit' just goes to show the lengths set-builders would go to for a realistic Underground station (Hobb's End in this instance).

I have Creep on DVD and have just checked it out.
It is an un refurbished 1972 MkI.
I believe this is stabled on the Aldwych branch but I stand corrected if wrong.

sliding doors is set somewhere on the drain where gwen paltrows character is wrestling with the doors. i have been shown platform 5 at holborn which was for the aldwych branch, it has a lot of hoarding now and is dusty but it looks familiar, i think it may have been the setting for vauxhall cross in die another day, i think it may have featured in a couple of music vidoes such as suede's 'saturday night' and aquas 'turn back time'
btw, am i the only person who saw creep and thought 'no that'd never happen coz of x & y!'?

Again I stand corrected if I'm wrong but I believe it was mostly done at Bank station.



Nope, your not the only person.
