1951 with Richard Greene and Barbara Hale, what the flip is Greene doing climbing YOSEMITE FALLS in Californ-eye-ay in a story set in Devon in merry ye olde England?!
Anyone here think of other great location blunders? Please don't count such films as Scorsese's KUNDUN, set in Tibet, which used Moroccan and South American locations for obvious political reasons.

Timmer, I actually understand what this post is all about now after re-reading it!!
How about "Snowdonia" standing in for the Khyber Pass in "Carry on Up the Khyber"?

Yeah, funny how the countryside looks very English in Carry On Cowboy too...but then, this IS 'Carry On' films were talking!

Mike Myers makes an observation like that in the second Austin Powers movie."Isn't is strange that England in no way looks like California." (Or something like that).
