I spotted a box near the end of the film during a car chase scene.

I can't seem to upload a picture though unfortunately.

Can you reduce the dimensions ( anything wider than 955 pixels get scaled down ) or re-save as jpeg with a higher compression ?

Needs to be less than 500 Kbytes

The film can be viewed on Amazon (Free if you have Prime) (Approx 51 mins)

I thought it was the same box featured in Mr Denning Drives North? (S6)
but it may also be a box on the A217

Thanks for posting peterjohn.

Think it could be V49

Looks like sign could be A307

This film was shot in this area.

First picture I've seen of this box.

Would still like to see BFG1981's picture if possible.

I'm unable to view this film so can't verify junction as well...

My picture is near identical to the one posted by Peterjohn.

The film is shown on TalkingPictures TV quite often, so more chance of seeing the immediate area when the car chase is on.

Thanks bfg1981. peterjohn has sent me a clip ( thanks peterjohn ) he filmed of his monitor.

I'll do some processing on the video but I still think V49 is the most likely ( not W5 )

I still think its V49 as parts of the film were shot at the top of this road and it seems to fit.

A217 box W5 doesn't seem to fit.

Thanks again to peterjohn for the clip and bfg1981 for finding this and another 'not seen box'
knocked off the list.
