Left off on purpose. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Manchester Metropolitan University in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The sentence the atlas read is about a scholar, not a shoot: it says that a 2021 article by Amy C. Chambers of Manchester Metropolitan University makes an observation about the film’s medical scenes. Nothing was filmed in Manchester. Source.

Filming locations

Also per Wikipedia's article

The article names 14 more 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

5 places whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.
