Lyme Regis

Lyme Regis and The Cobb are going to play a large part in the music video. The Cobb at Lyme Regis have had the likes of Meryl Streep standing on it, filming 'The French Lieutenants Woman', the BBC's version of 'Persuasion' and of course, Thomas Hardy's work was mostly written in the same area.
The Cobb is initially a sea wall to protect the harbour and the coastline.

By using the Cobb as one of our locations, it means that we can inter-textual reference it to other media filmed there, such as listed above.

The Cobb is a spectacular location to film at and hopefully the footage we film will compliment the Cobb.

  1. Any shots you can get from the film "The French Lieutenant's Woman" (google images there's loads which would mirror what you are trying to achieve in your music video) a film made from John Fowles' novel of the same name would strengthen. Also John Fowles was curator of Lyme Regis museum. I've just forwarded you and Alex an email with link and images.
