You could report it to the COL Filming office, they might then be more strict on future requests. I think there should be someone from the COL on site whenever there is a big filming project happening.

Linda,  I so know how you feel.  We, in Crescent House, have had similar issues, where, without notice, film groups and photographers, and 'tourists' have appeared on our landing, taking over.  I totally agree that's its an invasion of our privacy.  What I find hypocritical is that these groups have used our plant displays as backgrounds for their project, which no doubt the City gets a payment for, yet they cruelly forcibly removed my 'garden' that had been safely there for 20 years, and used as a backdrop for filming, and used by guest flat users, thus making it a working garden.  The Estate Office are not affected by this, and considering they are meant to be there for the residents' interests, there response is not good enough.

All payments for any filing on the Golden Lane Estate should be allocated in FULL to the Golden Lane Esate Residents Association, for community use.

Further the CoL licensing committee should have ensured that PUMA gave a voucher to each and every child on the estate allowing them a free pair to the value of £200.00!

Any further filming or photo shoots, should be approved by the GLERA, with users paying a financial payment to the Residents Association.

Residents should be allowed free filming, photo shoots etc...
