Trivia
In the series 4 episode 8 "High Noon" we see Whitbury Newtown Leisure Centre explode behind the church. However, looking at the map used to trace Helen's steps after she loses the children 4 episodes earlier in "The Christening", the leisure centre backs onto houses, the Church backs onto the A31 and fields. This is because the map is of Ringwood, where the show was filmed. The route Helen seemingly took would have taken 3 - 4 hours on foot and encompasses an almost impossible route!
