frontlefthamster. There is something in shot that should narrow it down ?

Keith.

A 'Bernard (bootiful) Maffews' resort perhaps? ie turkey rather than chicken, but then it could be Wing.

Thank you Keith!

That would be the fascinating dome at Langham, recently used for an interesting sound installation by Nick Franglen...

Friends of Langham Dome

Open house if I'm right please!

I do hope that interest in this thread is not waning. Wonder if THIS one will last longer than five minutes!

Has it been used in an advert recently....

Duckbutt 13th Dec 2011 09:49

Sorry, I've no idea. I would say that the general locality is photogenic though.

xtypeman 13th Dec 2011 09:52

I was thinking of the Avios advert. Don't know where it is and wont Google as I believe that is not in the spirit of this thread.

Duckbutt 13th Dec 2011 10:44

I HAVE googled the advert and with the proviso that if I understand it correctly, the filming was done in a different country.

Duckbutt 14th Dec 2011 08:42

Another view in the opposite direction:

Is this in New Zealand?

Duckbutt 14th Dec 2011 13:32

No, Northern Hemisphere.

If I had been here in 1976 or 1998 my knees would have been knocking both figuratively and literally. Probably also between 1915 and 1917 but not for quite the same reasons. Still very uncomfortable though!

MReyn24050 14th Dec 2011 14:19

Bovec, Slovenia perhaps?

Duckbutt 14th Dec 2011 14:52

Bovec Slovenia it is. Extensive fighting in the area between Italians and Austrian forces in 1915 to 1917, earthquakes in 1976 and 1998.

MReyn has control.

MReyn24050 14th Dec 2011 17:30

Thanks Duckbutt. It will have to be Open House I am afraid.

seacue 15th Dec 2011 09:54

I should like to submit this airport as a challenge.

Airport name and city?

For extra credit, which major TV personality flew out of this airport early in his career?

MReyn24050 15th Dec 2011 14:00

Name of the airport is Congressional Airport, Rockville, MD near Washington DC. The TV personality was Arthur Godfrey

seacue 15th Dec 2011 14:07

Very good MReyn.

The airport is now the Congressional Plaza shopping area ... at least the name lives on.

Arthur Godfrey was a longtime radio personality in the Washington, DC, area (starting around 1930).

MReyn has control again.

MReyn24050 15th Dec 2011 14:14

Thanks, seacue. It is over 4 years since you started this thread and it is still as popular as ever.
Here is the next:-

I try, but I'm very poor at recognizing the fields .. and when I do, someone beats me to it.
