The above posts are talking about the beach at Bognor, which is not private property. And the the whole original article stressed 'the British seaside'.

Looks like there may be no clapper board picture today; the daily 007 Twitter update has instead informed us that it's the birthday of Alan Cumming and Marc Forster.

On January 20 - last Friday - the feed posted the photo and did an "On this day ..." post about the start of second-unit photography on GOLDFINGER. They did the same thing two weeks ago, with a picture and another "On this day ..." post (sinking a model of Atlantis), and again on January 7 with the funeral shot and "On this day ..." (the 007 Stage was re-opened for filming AVTAK after the 1984 fire).

Although in all three cases, the picture was posted before the "On this day ..." - and since it has been more than a day since those pictures and posts were uploaded, I can't tell how long passed between each being added.

Sometimes there are more than one Twitter post in a day. Fingers crossed - we still might get something frustratingly ambiguous before midnight.

EDIT: Captain, we seem to have said similar things at the same time.

You say that like it's only ten minutes away.

Well, midnight is ten minutes away - here in Australia. By my count, there's still eleven hours before Friday becomes Saturday in the UK.

Australia! Now I get the Location:noitacoL thing :-) Love it!

[Captain Tightpants]

"Location:noitacoL" has nothing to do with my being Australian. We're not backwards, for God's sake. No, it has more to do with my warped sense of humour and not wnting to give away my actual location.

Oh no, please don´t get me wrong. There was no offence. I don´t think Australians are backwards. I thought it was a graphical "upside down" joke, you know, a hint that you are from "Down Under".

Sorry, mate!

Don´t get me wrong, but if it was a reference to "down under" "upside down" "other side of the world", it would be quite ingenious Brilliant even. Good show anyway Cap.

Ah, my mistake. Thanks for the clarification CT.

So, no clapper then. How strange.

Edit: Scrap that, still too early right?

Comprehensively beaten to it this time!

Scene 63 is one before the Chinese office building type shots - looks like some sort of factory here perhaps?

Does anyone know the significance, if any, of the letter V before the scene number?

[DominicGreene]

Am I the only one who's getting annoyed of these pictures?

[DamnCoffee]

You know, I'm loving everything to do with Skyfall and stuff. But this clapperboard nonsense is really beginning to annoy me. I'm just not feeling anything. Wish they would just hurry up and release some stills.

You said it brother, It was cute for a while. Time to move on!

[Tuxedo]

Elevators perhaps?

[The Dove]

I think we've had MORE than enough teaser pics with clapperboards...though I do kind of like how the pics keep us guessing and speculating. It's time though for some official pics and maybe more of a detailed plot synopsis. We've seen NOTHING of Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes' characters..would be nice to see them on set.

Agreed.

[MattofSteel]

I was just thinking the exact same, funny enough. In the span of one week, I've gone from pleasantly teased by these clapperboards to intensely annoyed. It's time for a teaser poster, at the very least. C'mon Sony.

[Chief of SIS]

just curious but any smart film person here know what the v before the scene number stands for?

Same here.

Maybe it's some kind of decorative style, like the dilapidated building that hosted the in QUANTUM OF SOLACE. This is scene 63, and the martini bar is scene 65. I doubt a lot is going to happen between the two.

I wouldn't expect a teaser poster until March at the earliest.

[Pussfeller]

If not early summer. But I can't imagine the current level of secrety will be maintained once they're into the swing of things. In the heat of production, we're bound to get some proper leaked photos, definite information about characters and plot, etc.

We've got quite a few shots from scenes close together now, I think. This is what I've totted up:
#53 - underground office/bunker?
#59 - cocktail bar
#63 - factory/decorative building? (today's picture)
#64 - neon Chinese office?

[DamnCoffee]

I assumed it meant 'version', maybe they're filming a few different versions of a scene. I'm probably wrong but yeah.

[Captain Tightpants]

I'd say #63 is the mezzanine outside the office.

Is it annoying? Doesn't bother me.
