There is a Harribo advert where various commuters are waiting on a platform, on what I believe is somewhere on the SWT network.
Does anyone know where this was filmed?

I think it's Woking. That seems to be the place where they do adverts, there was a Ladbrokes (I think) one there too a little while ago.

Youd think that Haribo would use PonteCarlo Tanshelf, what with it only being a stone's throw from their UK headquarters... wouldn't have had the same effect though with a bunch of tracksuited chavs talking in baby voices before boarding a 142 to Kirkgate without tickets!

Yes, I know that very few businesses actually make their commercials in-house...

... or Monkhill if they wanted a castle behind.

I think they use the southern counties probably because they look a little better off than some unstaffed ruin in the Yorkshire countryside.
I can say that as I'm from Yorkshire.

If Nestle used a railway station then it's very likely that they'd use East Croydon which is where the admin ofices are, the main factory is York.

Then about a few years back, the extremely poor and expensive dating site Match* used a Southern livered railway station in one of their ads.







* A mate of mine used Match for about six months without finding someone as most of the women on there wanted someone who was at least six foot and someone who was at least 90 or older than them, in other words the womans idea of so called "Mr Perfect" before Mr Perfect starts assulting them.

Back on topic.

As per HarleyDavidson, looks like Woking P1, only thing that's confusing me is at 0:09 there's a sign saying to Platforms 1-4 whilst on P1; it would be to P2-6?

Definitely not Surbiton, its footbridge crosses over 3 tracks with the down through line not having a platform face.

Yes, that sign is odd - it's certainly filmed on p1, so did the filming people add the sign for some reason? Very strange detail to change if so.
