Filming Locations

  • Aylesbury

    Some scenes were filmed at Friars Square Shopping Centre.

  • Brunel University

    Lecture Centre E in the Audio Visual Dept was used for the scenes of Alex strapped to the chair being brainwashed. The scene where Alex is transferred to the reception desk of the Ludivico Institute was shot in the entrance to the Maths/Computer Centre. The scene where Alex is given an injection in his bedroom was filmed in one of the bedrooms in E block halls of residence (rooms E31-35 were block booked by the film company for this scene).

  • Southmere Lake

    The lakeside at Southmere in Thamesmead appears as the 'Flat Block Marina', where Alex reasserts his dominance over his droogs by slashing Dim's hand and throwing him into the water at Binsey Walk on the lake's western shore.

  • Tavy Bridge Shopping Centre

    The brutalist Tavy Bridge Centre in Thamesmead South was used as the exterior of Alex's grim home, the 'Municipal Flat Block', in the film's early sequences.
