We spent almost five days in Alnwick, a little village north of Newcastle. Propably well-known for Alnwick Castle and Alnwick Garden. We actually stayed at the castle, beacuse my girlfriend, which I traveled with, knew the director of a group of american students. The Saint Cloud State University in Minnesota sends students to the castle each semester. It was really cool. I'll try to get some pics

Yes. The flying scene in the first movie, and some other scenes as well.
