Yellow Emanuelle - Chai Lee (1977) - Guildford Road, The Peak

The following scene was shot at the junction of Guildford Road and Peak Road as the car drives up Guildford Road towards the give way line. The car stops at the line and holds up the traffic when they have a snog. But in image 3 we can see that the presence of the buildings in the background (the Mansfield Road Govt Quarters - demolished 2022) means that this particular shot was filmed back down the road away from the junction. This also explains the close upon the traffic pagoda in the bottom image which was taken from the same location. If the car was at the junction, looking at the pagoda we would see the view to the west, but instead we are looking east. I can only guess that they had to park the car on the pavement to get these shots so the traffic wouldn't be held up in real life.
