Scene was shot on the King's Crass station. The station was constructed by the Midland Railway in 1868 as the terminus of their only line into London. It was designed by William Henry Barlow with a single-span iron roof, the largest such roof at the time spanning 245 feet. In the early 2000s the platforms were extended with a new train shed to allow the station to accommodate the longer Eurostar trains coming in through the Chunnel. As soon as the station was complete, construction began on a hotel at the front of the station designed by architect George Gilbert Scott in a Italian gothic style with polychromatic brick materials. The hotel operated until 1935 when it was converted into offices, but it was eventually renovated and converted back into a hotel in 2011.
