    You missed a location but it would be hard to film around a school. I went to school where the kid met Superman, same class room, same seat, looking out the same window. Sir Frank Markham School, I don't think it's called that now tho. I could prob spot it on google maps, it's over looking a field. Great video! Thanks for the memories guys !

    I seem to remember seeing an early cinema trailer for Superman lV where he is in the London Underground and a train has Cockfosters as its destination? I think this was later changed to represent metropolis. Am I just imagining this? Age plays tricks on your memory 😊

      The train has 4th Street on it. It was filmed at Holborn station on platform 5 which is now.closed to the public.

    My late Mother in law Violet was the head cleaning supervisor at the CBX building (where the winter gardens are) when they filmed there. She met Christopher Reeve and got my husband who was 16 at the time a signed photo. We still live in MK.
    Great tour thank you, enjoyed watching it 😊

    Great video - live nearby to Milton Keynes and go there regularly, especially the train station - so weird to think that Chris Reeve, Margot Kidder etc were on that very spot.

    Great video lads, I really enjoyed learning of the location for a film I have fond memories of.
    I saw Quest for Piece at the Cinema. I also saw Superman 3 at the cinema too.
    I definitely revert to childhood when I watch the Christopher Reeves 4 films as Superman.
    He'll never be out done in the role.
    I've visited locations for my UA-cam channel too. I have 2 Robin Hood Prince Of Thieves locations down the road from me. The tree house village and the lake scene. Both locations also became Harry Potter locations, Star Wars and James Bond too.
    I worked at Pinewood Studios for 7 years for a tenant company. Nothing to do with film making sadly. Still it was a magical place to work every day.
    If you fancy doing a joint video, give me a shout.

    Woooooooooooooooooooow!!! Did you know that the newspaper editorial in part 1 was in England pinewood studios? Are you assuming yes they are like that in part 4 with the ice cave & all? They probably took all the scenes, the newspaper ice cave & England's Muse all in one?

    The Kent farm was another location recreated in the UK, to save the expense of travel to the original film's location in Alberta, Canada, but unlike some of the "Metropolis" locations, the farm was a convincing substitution.

    Apparently, the film suffered from substantial cost cutting, so that might explain why numerous scenes were filmed in Milton Keynes rather than somewhere more expensive "across the pond".

    All of the Superman films, 'Superman:The Movie', 'Superman II', 'Superman III' and 'Superman IV: The Quest For Peace' were all filmed in England.
    How is that a shock? Don't you people watch the credits of films? Every one of those Superman films mentioned above has 'Filmed on location and at Pinewood/Shepperton Studios, London, England' in its end credits.
    The quarry where Superman finds Lana Lang's diamond and he drops of Gus Gorman is actually round the corner from me here in Battersea, south London.
    They were filmed in England (as was the original Star Wars trilogy) because according to directors George Lucas and Richard Donner, we have the best special effects teams for films like those, best in the world. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
