If they are then they needn’t think that parking on the pavement invalidates the double yellow lines. Quick poll – who here has had their photo taken on that crossing? [Holds up hand]
To be fair, I don’t think there’s a tremendous amount to see there unless you want to make a pilgrimage to stand outside the studio. There are some nice cafes and restaurants (it’s a very well-to-do neighbourhood) but nothing apart from Abbey Road worth a special trip. We only went out of Afterwordy nerdiness, and because we combined it with a day in London leading up to an evening gig.
From that black cab bearing down on them, looks like they used one of the last two or three shots, since that Capaldi fellow was continually looking at the camera for all the others…
The number plate of the Beetle is “DWW 29IF”, which is, as any fule kno, one more than the Abbey Road Beetle (“LMV 28IF”). The character of Clara Oswald would be 29 on November 2015.

Its even got a white beetle – great foto.
DogFacedBoy says
I wondered if that was photo-shopped in or has someone just permanently parked one there

DogFacedBoy says
I haven’t, I’ve actually never been there. Maybe a Massive visit with appropriate photo is in order
Oh you can see the Beetle in the clip so it is there physically.

I’m sure everyone knows there is a 24 live cam you can access online, but just in case…

Click on the “Wall of Fame” button and scroll along to the 19/9 pic to see what it looked like from the other end of the street.

Kid Dynamite says
should we read anything into the actress we know is leaving this series being barefoot?
PAUL IS DEAD.
Sewer Robot says
Small world, eh? The only two good bits in the Minions movie involved a time traveller and the Abbey Road pedestrian crossing..

The Mail Online said
“The brunette beauty was inexplicably bare foot as she walked across the zebra crossing for the picture…”
Inexplicably? Journalists eh?

I’ll get me cloak.
BaldySlaphead says
Apologies: that should be “LMW 28IF”.
I hereby hand back the cloak.
