Is this UVic?  Remember the A&W guy was here recently?  Another part of the full commercial (not online) shows the van driving along what could be King George Terrace or Beach Drive.

One of they VicFoodGuys got on a local A & W commercial. Not sure if the filming was at UVic though.

Handmaids Tale won a crapload of Emmys tonight.  And it's not even on US TV, it's on Hulu.

 

Broadcast TV is getting closer to dead.

Looks like it. Looks like the Clearihue in the background (clock tower at the left).

 

As close as I could get in Google Maps' street view:

Here is the 1980 movie The Changeling, filmed partly at Hatley Castle.  It's a pretty decent movie if you'd like to have a watch.  But I've cued it up to the Hatley part.

I don't think George C. Scott is going to get his damage deposit back on that house he rented.

Zimmer should win it Hans down.

[Freedom57]

Another Hallmark Film production (Once Upon A Prince) being filmed at Government House starting on Feb. 5th.

[Matt R.]

Zimmer should win it Hans down.

Sounds like a slam Dunkirk.

Matt.

Those that think he has a Zim chance of winning might be proven wrong.

Took in 12 Strong tonight; thought it was a solid flick. Fans of the genre including Lone Survivor, Zero Dark Thirty or Blackhawk Down will enjoy this outing which chronicles the true story of an elite US Special Forces/CIA paramilitary operation to interdict Taliban/Al Qaeda control of a strategic corridor in Afghanistan soon after 9/11. Provides some interesting background info on the behind the scenes dynamics and tensions between the various factions of the Afghan Northern Alliance, along with the obligatory and very intense battle scenes.

Excellent ASE I might go see before the Super Bowl. I think we’ve only disagreed one one movie in the past.

[Matt R.]

Those that think he has a Zim chance of winning might be proven wrong.

I think he should win, it’s well derserved. The score was the best part of that film, Hans down.

Matt.

Filming the movie "Digger" in the early early 90's in Fernwood.

 

Leslie Nielsen is featured.  What you see in the background is where the wine bar now operates.
