2. Machu Picchu, Peru: In the footsteps of Tintin
Like one of the movie’s key inspirations, Hergé’s Tintin adventure ‘Prisoners of the Sun’, Inca ruins feature strongly in the story – and the most famous of the lot backdrops one helter-skelter sequence. ‘Our lost Inca ruin was filmed at Machu Picchu, although it’s not Machu Picchu in the film,’ says Alison. ‘Dougal spent two months recceing and went right into Amazonia and to Machu Picchu twice.’

3. Huayna Picchu, Peru: A nod to ‘Aguirre’
The other ‘Picchu’, Huayna Picchu, a soaring peak that rises above the Lost City of the Incas, is another Peruvian icon to feature in Paddington in Peru. Here, director Dougal Wilson and his team followed in Werner Herzog’s footsteps. ‘Aguirre, the Wrath of God was an inspiration,’ says Alison, ‘the opening shot of this troop of people climbing down Huayna Picchu is where we filmed as well. We have a little homage to the conquistador craziness.’

4. Prado, Colombia: the Indiana Jones-style rope bridge
Peru’s neighbour, Colombia, was also used widely for background photography. One key location there was Prado, a small town in the centre of the country. ‘That’s where you see Antonio chopping a rope bridge,’ says Alison.

5. Chilcot Crescent, London: Paddington and the Browns’ home
Primrose Hill’s picturebox crescent is back for the third film – albeit briefly. ‘We did one day there to do the exteriors and we did the interiors in the studio,’ says Alison. ‘I keep reading articles about the [residents] complaining. To be honest, I think plenty of them really like it, but some don’t and it’s always thus when you’re filming.’

6. Berrybushes Farm, Hertfordshire: The Peruvian bears’ home in the English Countryside
Paddington in Peru’s secret weapon is a patch of farmland just off the M25 northwest of London. ‘We had a sign as you arrived saying “Welcome to Peru”,’ says Alison of the location where the cast filmed the Peruvian scenes. ‘We built The Home For Retired Bears in inside a wood augmented with actual rainforest trees.’ Filming took place at Berrybushes in 2023. ‘The market town with the boat and the river was at Berrybushes as well, and the Inca ruin too.’
7. Black Park, Buckinghamshire: From Harry Potter to Peruvian rainforests
Another of the film’s UK locations, nearby Black Park, already has a stack of IMDb credits to its name. ‘It gets used for lots of films: Harry Potter, Star Wars,’ says Alison. ‘[We filmed] some more rainforest [scenes] there. It’s got some great trees where you’re not sure where you are.

8. The Shard, London: Mr Brown’s Office
London is more of a bystander in Paddington 3, but one city landmark does feature. ‘We have a couple of terrific scenes in Henry Brown’s office in the Shard,’ says Alison. Those interior scenes – and the life-sized doll’s house used in Paddington 1 and 2 – were filmed at Sky Studios Elstree.

Does Paddington Station feature in the new movie?
No. The station that gave Paddington his name features strongly in Paddington (2014) and Paddington 2 (2017) but sits this one.

Where were Paddington 1 and 2 filmed?
The first two movies were filmed mostly in west london, with Paddington Station, Marylebone Station, Maida Vale tube station, Portobello Road, Little Venice, Primrose Hill and the Natural History Museum all key locations, along with the Shard, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Reform Club in Pall Mall. Locations outside of London include Hatfield House, Somerset’s Shepton Mallet Prison and Dublin’s Kilmainham Gaol Museum.
