Five friends return to their hometown to reattempt a pub crawl they failed 23-years earlier, only to discover the town is in the midst of an alien invasion
This apocalyptic comedy sci-fi has a scene near the beginning that was shot at High Wycombe railway station……playing the part of High Wycombe. Chiltern Class 165 Turbo DMU No.165032 graces us with its presence in the opening shot. For added interest, The Hole in the Wall pub that features as part of the pub crawl was in fact Letchworth Garden City railway station! However, we only get to see one very brief glimpse of its frontage.
