Places per Wikipedia's Filming section

Wikipedia’s Filming section names 2 places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it was shot there

3 places whose own Wikipedia article names this series as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this series’s own article does not say so either.

Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.
