Episode 8 – They keep killing Suzie!
By John
Bond-Winstone (The Doctor)
Well I hope you are all
having a fantastic Christmas, Holiday etc. and that the food has been good and
the alcohol even better. As you know
this episode, Suzie makes a comeback. I
will not spoil the episode description in this just in case Jack feeds me to
Joshua. Also this episode was mostly
filmed in the studio and only one location was used, so this article will be
short and sweet.
Barry Docks, Barry, South Wales
This location is used as
Hedley Quay. This is for the scenes of
Gwen being carried by Suzie down along the pier and then Jack shooting
Suzie. The pier used is actually not for
public access so you cannot get onto it and from doing a lot of research and thanks
to the site Doctor Who Locations for sharing this information.
The nearest point from which
to get a decent view of the pier is from Nells Point. So here are the directions to get there.
Directions
Catch a Train to Barry Island
from Platform 7 in Cardiff Central Station (this will take you 30 mins)
Get off the train at Barry
Island and come out of the station and head North toward Plymouth Road
Turn Left onto Plymouth Road
and then take the first Right onto Archer Road
Walk to the top of Archer
Road and turn Right onto Clive Road
Walk along Clive Road until
you have a turning on the Right call Barry Island Pathway.
Walk along Barry Island
Pathway and Turn Right onto Charles Darwin Way.
From here you can see the
Piers.
