Oh my I really have raised your hopes it is near me but when I looked at the map I was thinking of a different place which is a village about half an hour from me, Llanberris where the quarry is actually 3 and half hour drive from me through the mountains a bit to far for my terrible driving. thanks for all your advice though I wish it was closer I would have gone to look but I am a bit shy, to have chatted up any security   or to have shouted or god forbid stalked anyone. I am really sorry for getting your hopes up if I hear of any local news I will post anything that I hear for sure. Funnily enough by chance I don't know if anyone in the uk saw it tonight but songs of praise where doing a programme from north wales and the presenter was at the slate quarry if you want to watch here's the link.http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00l94s9/Songs_of_Praise_Wales/ I must admit I don't usually watch this programme but when i watched it I thought wow clash of the titans is gonna look spectacular the quarry bit is at 5.35 if you don't want to watch the whole show.  |

@virg hey at least it isn't Hugh Dancy this time... (  ) "clash" seems to be getting more steam at the moment at least! lolly -- it would've been fun if you had gotten to take a look, but hey -- we'll all be seeing it as we are meant to in 9 short months! |

When I clicked on the first link Virgil my initial reaction was wow. And your right, that is a fantastic location. I can really see why it was chosen!

That rules me out as well. I don't think the make up artists would appreciate having to cover over my tattoos with make up, only to have it washed off by cold water swimming!  |

Love the pictures of the locations, it looks like it's going to be a great film.

I hate swimming in cold water, BRR Generally I would agree with you on this Lynette. But taking into account all the hot weather the UK has had recently, cold water swimming suddenly becomes quite appealing! |

This is also a rarity. The weather is crazy. |
