Hi everyone, it’s been a long time since my last update, however I have been busy looking for some of the remaining locations, which are a little more difficult to find. The lack of background detail and Google Street View locations is forcing me to use other avenues of research – namely Facebook. I joinedContinue reading “Help from the locals”

It is with a heavy heart that I write this latest blog post – Jack Hedley, the principal actor in Who Pays the Ferryman?, has passed away, aged 92, after a short illness. He brought a wonderful depth of character to the role of Alan Haldane, and played him beautifully. His talent will live onContinue reading “RIP Jack Hedley, 28/10/1929 – 11/12/2021”

Shortly after finding the funeral procession road, I found the village of Dafnai nearby. I was on the right track by checking the general area, but I also had to really delve deep into every scene there was in the episode, no matter how brief or how little detail was shown. The mountains in theContinue reading “Dafnai found!”

I have been looking for this location thinking it was near to the cemetery that was used at the end of episode 4. The tree-lined road leading up to the cemetery certainly looked the same. However, none of the mountains in the background matched. At the same time, nothing in Fourni seems to match theContinue reading “Funeral procession route found”

Throughout the series, there are occasions when Greek is spoken, without subtitles. For those of you that may be wondering what has been said, I have translated (or attempted to translate where possible) those particular conversations. These are in the ‘Dialogue’ page in the top menu. At the bottom of that page, I have alsoContinue reading “Translations and title captions added”

I noticed recently that the end credits are also filmed sequences, with the credit text overlaid. These are also locations that can be documented and Google pinned on the site. I have gone through and added the ones I hadn’t already done (episodes 6 and 8 from memory). Episodes 1 and 7 are the same.Continue reading “Credits added”

Hello everyone, I’ve now also added a Google Map page. This will eventually show all locations on one map, with a ‘pin’ for each location. Click on the pin and there is a short description of that location. I have started with the main ones, and will populate where time allows. Click on the ‘Map’Continue reading “Map added”

I have finally found the village of Meligala. It is actually the village of Roussapidia and lies in the mountains south of Neapoli (where else?). You can find more information and Google Street Views and Maps on the Episode 6 page.

I have finished documenting every exterior location in the whole series. What this means is that for every exterior scene or location, I have grabbed at least one screen capture and put it on the site, along with text describing the whole story. So now the story is comprehensively told through text and screen capturesContinue reading “All location screen captures & full list of all outstanding locations completed”

I had a quick email conversation with Andrew Morgan, Production Assistant and stand-in Director for some episodes, about which studio was used for the interior sets. You could tell which scenes were shot in a studio, and which were on location. The studio scenes were a lot more crisp visually and the lighting a lotContinue reading “Pebble Mill Studios”
