Of course there’s platform 9¾ at King’s Cross Station, but you already know that.
Harry Potter Photo: you’re potty about Potter, London is full of magical places for you to visit.
If that is the case though, make sure you do it in true Love Actually style! 2. And of course you could visit Heathrow airport where the famous opening and closing scenes are filmed, but a trip to Heathrow isn’t recommended unless you actually have a plane to catch, or somebody to go and meet.
You can also visit Selfridges on Bond Street, where Alan Rickman tries to buy a necklace from Rowan Atkinson. That hot pink house is the very one used for filming the now-contentious scene. Andrew Lincoln declaring his love for Keira Knightley via oversized flash cards may not have aged well – NOT OK ANDREW – but nevertheless, if you want to stand in the same place, head to St Luke’s Mews. Photo: in Notting Hill (we’ll get to that particular film later), you’ll find the location of one of the film’s most iconic moments. Though the scene isn’t totally accurate (they ‘moved’ St Paul’s Cathedral to make it appear nearer), it’s still a perfect place to go and sit if you’re feeling agonisingly in love with someone who doesn’t even know your name (it happens to the best of us, Sam).
Of course we had to start with this one! If you head to Gabriel’s Wharf and sit on the bench directly in front of The Wharf restaurant, you’ll be sat in the exact same spot as Daniel and Sam when they talk about the ‘total agony of being in love’.
