Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Swanage
2 productions shot at 2 places inside Swanage, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Swanage itself.

Named here by Swanage’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Swanage, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
