Newman Arms, 23 Rathbone Place, W1

The newsagent, where apparently respectable gent Miles Malleson (who also played the Caliph in Powell’s classic The Thief of Baghdad) buys The Times and The Telegraph – plus a selection of adult photographs for five shillings each – and above which Mark Lewis (Carl Boehm) has his studio in Michael Powell’s Peeping Tom, is now a restaurant, Caffe V, 29 Rathbone Place at the southwest corner of Percy Street. At the opening of the film, Boehm picks up prostitute Brenda Bruce in Newman’s Court, off Rathbone Place, and follows her up to a room above the Newman Arms, where the unbalanced photographer films her murder.
