Queen's Walk, Hopton Street, Southwark SE1

Match Point, SouthwarkAt this spot, beneath the southern end of Blackfriars Bridge, Chris Wilton (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) throws a clutch of stolen items into the Thames in Woody Allen's Match Point. The Banksy graffiti image of a little girl carrying a red balloon has since vanished.

Trivia: A work of warning to any felon attempting to dispose of incriminating evidence. Don't try this during the Thames Festival. What looks in the film like a discreetly secluded corner is likely to be mobbed with crowds from the Tate Modern sampling ethnic food, face painting and craft stalls.
