Southfork, DallasHome of the Ewings, a family of Oil Barons whose blackmail, lust, greed and even murder, made Dallas essential viewing for 360 million people worldwide.
Portmeirion, Wales‘I’m not a number, I’m a free man’ shouted Patrick MacGoohan as every week in the late 1960s his character No6 tries to escape from The Village.
The Village is in fact the stunning Italianate Portmeirion resort which regularly attracts over 250,000 visitors every year.
Blenheim Palace, OxfordshireThe classic TV show Inspector Morse was filmed all over Oxfordshire, but arguably the grandest backdrop for one of his murder investigations was Blenheim Palace - birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. When a dead body turned up in its Walled Gardens, Morse was soon getting to grips to plenty of clues to track down the killer. Years later Lewis pursued his own enquiries relating to a dead body in the maze.
