Germany Locations

All of our German photographs have been kindly sent to us from Edward York.

Here we look at the locations that were used during the ten day shoot in Germany, both as they were then and what they now look like today. Although set in Düsseldorf, most of the filming was done in Hamburg. One clue to this is that most of the vehicles have Hamburg registrations, (HH).

Our first collection of photos show the Police station that Neville was held in in 'The Accused'. As you can see it has been painted magnolia since filming, but ,mostly it remains as we all remember it. It can be found at 16 Großneumarket, Hamburg

Here is the sex cinema from 'Suspicion.' Although it is now two shops, and the facade has slightly changed, when you compare the two photographs, you can see that little else has been altered. Sex World, 26 Steindamm Hamburg, near Hauptbahnhof.

Also from suspicion. Here is the row of shop where Wayne bought a bracelet for Ingrid. The jewellers is now the carpet shop on the far left of the new photo. The address is 56 Colonnaden Hamburg.

Here we have the intercontinental hotel Hamburg, which played the part of the Inter-Conti Düsseldorf. It has changed very little. Visitors may also like to note that this is where the cast and crew stayed during the ten day film shoot in Germany.

Here we have a wonderful picture of the pub where Magowan started the riot at the end of the first season. It is called the Uerige and is on the corner of Flingerstrasse and Bergerstrasse in the Altstadt in Dussledorf. And our Overseas locations manager Ed York reccommends it!.

Here we have the Fernsehturm in Düsseldorf, the TV tower that forms part of the opening titles.

Here is the tram station we saw Neville at in 'Suspicion'. It is Luegplatz station in Düsseldorf, near on of the bridges that crosses the Rhine.

Here is the Rathausufer Pegeluhr (water guage clock on Rathausufer (Rathausufer means town hall river bank)). This was where Wayne and Barry were having a beer in 'The Alien' when Dennis turns up with Neville's plectrum. This is a stretch of river bank on the Rhine between the two main bridges in Düsseldorf just by the Altstadt. Edward informs me that it's fabulous in the summer.

This is where Barry and Wayne parked the motorbike in 'Private lives' as they are discussing the Wolves season ticket. The church in the background is the St. Michaelis (most famous in Hamburg) and the photo is taken from Grossneumarkt Hamburg.

This is a view of the Fernsehturm (TV tower) taken along Grindelhof in Hamburg. This is where Dagmar waited for Dennis after being spotted at the swimming pool by Oz, Barry & Neville. The giveaway is the cinema on the left called the Abaton. The sign is clearly visible on the video.

Same location again, but Bornstrasse, the street along which Dennis' taxi appears, to see Barry talking to Dagmar.

Back to Grossneumarkt. This is a shot from outside Thämer's bar, where Barry and Wayne were having a beer as Barry invites two attractive Frauleins 'back to our hut'. Check the arches in the background and compare on screen.  Second is the view from Barry and Wayne's table.

Here is a lengthways shot of the Rathausufer. If you watch the sequence closely,you can see that this location was also used when Dennis told Dagmar he was going back to England in the last episode.
