Places whose own article says it was shot there
2 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.

“Keira Knightley returned to Hayes to co-star with Benedict Cumberbatch in The Imitation Game (2014), filmed at the town's West London Film Studios.” Wikipedia

“In the 2013 movie The Imitation Game, about World War II code breaker Alan Turing, Joyce Grove was used for exterior shots of Bletchley Park.” Wikipedia
Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this film as shot in Oxfordshire, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable (a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote), so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
