Yes, the family holiday home. The dilapidated caravan in “Holidays on the Costa Plonka.”
They didn’t go to a dump. They used a real farm in Mere, Wiltshire. It’s called Pedros Farm.
That scene where Del accidentally parks it over a ditch? Filmed right there. The farmer was paid in cash and a crate of beer.
Today? The caravan is long gone. But locals say you can still find bits of broken green plastic in the mud. Dodgy.
Don’t forget the “posh” bits.
When Del tries to go uptown, things get fancy. The Marina Del Ray nightclub? That’s the Green Man pub in Seven Sisters.
The country club where Del tries to sell fake rolexes? That’s the Burghley Park Golf Club in Stamford, Lincolnshire.
And the famous “Baton Twirling” competition? Woking Leisure Centre. Honestly. It’s a bargain.
