Mr Bean Filming Locations
When Mr Bean heads to the beach...the steps he can be seen walking down are those at Friars Bay, Peacehaven, East Sussex - not to be confused with those you first come to as you walk along Peacehaven's promenade from the slope down towards the front. The Friars Bay steps are about half a mile further along. Click here to see when I visited this location! The Beach also in this scene is from where Mr Bean comes down the steps, the first set of steps down to the shingle below.

The lamppost in the background is still there as is the writing in yellow on the wall on the top right of Mr Bean's car. The photo shows the exact place of which Mr Bean and his Mini were parked and where the postbox was.

Episode 10: Mind The Baby Mr Bean - All of this episode is filmed around the town of Southsea, Nr Portsmouth, Hampshire.
When Mr Bean is looking for the funfair, he is walking along the beach at Southsea, on the stretch of shingle just to the left of the 'South Parade Pier'. Below is an album of where the scenes were in this first part of the episode and what they look like now.
The Funfair Mr Bean goes to is still there today and is called 'Clarence Pier'. Majority of the rides featured in this episode have now un-surprisingly gone, however the rollercoaster called 'Skyways' which Mr Bean rode looking very unenthusiastic is still there to this very day. The Album below on the top row shows photo's of Clarence pier from the 90's when the episode was filmed, the middle row shows the photos that are shown above in the episode and photos of the fairground now are shown along the bottom row.
Episode 11: Back To School Mr Bean - The scenes in the grounds of the school were filmed at Richmond Park Academy, Richmond, London. It was formerly called the 'Shene School'.
Episode 12: Tee Off Mr Bean - Towards the end of the episode when Mr Bean is riding a tandem this whole scene is filmed around Jubilee Road, Littlewick Green, Maidenhead. The houses in the background are still there and the whole entire location looks very much the same today as it did in that very episode.

Episode 13: Goodnight Mr Bean - At the start of the episode, an ambulance can be seen going along Robert Street into the arches of what was once Temperance Hospital, Hampstead Road, London. The hospital is still standing but is in a derelict state and the arches of the entrance are all boarded up. The Photo on the left shows the hospital entrance In Mr Bean, the centre photo shows the view just infront of the arches - looking at the same view on the left photo and the photograph on the right shows what it looks like now (as if you was driving towards it)
