What about the park at the end
That bus to Hastings got lost - it was filmed on Beachy Head Road heading towards Belle Tout lighthouse past Eastbourne! :-D
Been searching and I believe it was Cobtree Manor Park in Maidstone, about 50 miles away and nowhere near the sea (perhaps the seagulls heard must have been brought in on that bus to Hastings!)
I've been trying to work that out. Hearing the seagulls it must have been close to the sea. I wonder if it was a location in Worthing, but I've never been there. Incidentally, a bus from Margate to Hastings would have taken all day to get there ... no such regular service would have been run by East Kent buses!
What about the scene where Stephen and girlfriend saw Hilary? Was that not Broadstairs?
Yes that was in Victoria park in Broadstairs. I walked from Ramsgate to Margate the day they filmed that scene.
Yes, Viking Bay looking towards Bleak House
