Xoanon’s correspondent is right, some of the backdrops to pictures on the official website look to be taken around Canterbury, New Zealand, as are some of the pictures in our ‘Speculative Locations’.The area is as he describes, a region of broad plains and great rivers bordered by the mighty Southern Alps. Quite unlike Canterbury, England; I don’t think cathedrals will be a large feature of the film. So, UK fans, sorry.
My money’s on Canterbury, New Zealand.
