I guess you just need to keep you eyes open. Bizarre but true: a year and a bit back I was wandering through central London and tried out a new shortcut across what seemed to be a quiet university campus. Didn't see anyone around or any signs to tell me I shouldn't be there, but next thing I knew, I was walking past some American style cop cars with GCPD on them. It wasn't till a few minutes later, after I'd walked out through a gate with a security guy on it (who didn't bother me, as I was going out) and saw all the starvans and make-up trailers, that I realised I'd unwittingly walked on and off of a location shot for Batman Begins, and had been passing the building that was used for Gotham's Police Department.
