A new bus tour to film locations from the film Atonement has just been launched. Wwe’ll follow in the footsteps of Briony Tallis, her older sister Cecilia and Robbie Turner.
Your journey will start with a visit to some of the locations in central London before heading off on a three and a half hour journey to the heart of England at Stokesay Court. You’ll be guided through the actual rooms used in the dramatic opening scenes of the movie at the Tallis family home.
You will be able to lunch in the same dining room as the Tallis family from the movie. Lunch will also be included in the tour.
You’ll learn about how the film was made, watch the DVD clips as we pass some of the actual sites used in the film, see some of the props used in the film, discuss the best selling novel by Ian McEwan and get trivia about the stars of this film.
At the end of the tour we’ll also send you a souvenir group picture by email.
Tour highlights include:
-Drive through the same wartime street where Cecilia bids Robbie farewell from a London bus
-See the church that hosted the wedding between Lola (Juno Temple) and Paul (Benedict Cumberbatch) (external only)
-Spot the tube station where the scenes of the 1940s Balham tube tragedy were shot (external only)
-Get a guided tour of the property used as the Tallis family home, by the current owner of the house
-Enter the room where Robbie (James McAvoy) and Cecilia (Keira Knightley) are caught in a moment of passion
-Look out the same window where the young Briony (Saoirse Ronan) witnesses the scene between Robbie and Cecilia next to the fountain
-Stand next to the actual fountain where the broken vase was retrieved
