If you move left from the dome, past the car park, before you get to the river there is a white round building with a line running vertically just cutting through the right of it with a few circles either side. If I remember rightly, this is the Greenwich Meridian indicator line.

If you scroll south eastwards of the Dome, you can see The Valley (Charlton Athletic’s football ground).

The big chimney in the south-west of the Dome is actually an exhaust vent for the Blackwall Tunnel, which goes underneath the site. The crescent-shaped building to the south is North Greenwich bus station, which is connected to North Greenwich tube. The whole area is designed to be as car-free as possible.

It was indeed in The World Is Not Enough, Bond had a pretty cool rocket-boat chase around London, ending at the Dome.

If I remember rightly we see the usual stuff- Houses Of Parliament, Tower Bridge- and also the MI6 building, here:

Now there’s so much more hi-res stuff, there must be shed loads more Bond locations to find. In fact, two have already been posted here, the Eiffel Tower and The Rock of Gibraltar.

What's queuing?

Just Kidding... to the uniformed Yanks it means as in lining up. As in, the line for movie tickets was too long, so we went home.

Wasn't this in a Bond Movie?
