James Bond at Amberley
Organised by : Amberley Museum
Did you know that Amberley Museum was one of the main filming locations for the 1985 James Bond Film A View to a Kill?
In September 1984 locations across Amberley Museums old Chalk Pits and Quarry Tunnel were transformed into the fictional Main Strike Mine. Items from the Museums collection took on starring roles in the film (and they left a few behind!)
We will be running regular guided tours delving into the detail of how the old Amberley chalk pits were transformed into a filming location nearly 40 years ago.
Speakers from the Shaken not Stirred Fan Club will be joining us to give an overview of all things James Bond, along with special guests to answer all your questions.
During the day we will be running the Zorin locomotive and wagons used in the original filming, including the chance to take iconic photos. Make the most of the opportunity to drive one of the locomotives from the film.
We are also pleased to be welcoming the Aston Martin Club, who will put on a display of some impressive cars throughout the day together with some visiting Rolls Royces and Jaguars. There will be a chance to enjoy live themed music over a glass of something refreshing on the Limeburners terrace.
To find out more join us for a day celebrating the Museums role in the production of a A View to a Kill.
Please pre-book tickets to avoid disappointment.
