Battersea Park is London's most popular film location.

It has knocked the London Eye off top spot in a list compiled by Film London, which supports movie-makers in the capital.

The park was used in the Simon Pegg comedy Run, Fat Boy, Run, pictured, Bollywood musical Salaam-E-Ishq and a Magic Numbers pop video.

Also in the top 10 is the Millennium Bridge - used in Bollywood movie I See You and the new Woody Allen film, Cassandra's Dream.

Regent's Park, Hyde Park and Richmond Park are also listed.
