Filming is continuing at the Cardiff Royal Infirmary today, and is also expected to film at the AJ's Coffee Shop on City Road later in the day.

There are a couple of reports on site from AJ's, and a couple of photos from yesterday's filming from Alun Vega.

Filming for Torchwood has returned to one of both its and Doctor Who's old haunts, the Cardiff Royal Infirmary. The interior has been used for hospital wards and like many times (most recently seen as outside the Royal Hope in Turn Left). As filming is inside, however, reports seem unlikely this time around.

This is South Wales has reported on the upcoming Open House weekend in Swansea on 13th-14th September, and mentions a Doctor Who tour that will will form a part of it. Says the article: "TIME-TRAVELLING saviour of mankind Doctor Who and the South Wales Evening Post may not appear to have much in common at first glance. But they will both be featuring in this year's Swansea Open House event, which gives people the chance of a behind-the-scenes glimpse at buildings not usually accessible to the public. Fans of Doctor Who will be able to take a tour of locations used in filming the TV series as part of the through-the-keyhole event, which takes place on the weekend of September 13 and 14."

There is also a more detailed PDF available for the weekend, which elaborates that the tour will run half-hourly from 10:30-3:30pm, commencing at the Guildhall.

Filming is continuing down at Cardiff Bay today, though this time it is all indoors at the The Coal Exchange, previously seen in Combat and Voyage of the Damned. Says I.C.: "there were quite a few (what look like) supporting artists going into the building at around 9:55am, dressed in smart clothes (suits basically). Now The Coal Exchange is currently closed. There is no business going on there, so putting two and two together I would guess that those people in the suits are involved with the filming!"

Filming is expected to remain inside the location for the rest of the week.

Filming has formally begun (well first publicly seen!) this morning for Torchwood down in Cardiff Bay, utilising an old haunt of Mount Stuart Square, previously seen in last season's opener Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. A brief report and clips are available from Scott Frankton, I.C., and The Brigade Leader.

Urgh! Well it had to happen, Cardiff Buses have changed the urls pointing to their bus maps. We are in the process of updating location links to reflect to new (much better looking!) maps, so apologies if any map link isn't working when you try it (if this is still the case by the end of the weekend please let us know!).

Torchwood Magazine reports that principal photography (filming to us) for the new series of Torchwood is due to start next week, from Monday 18th August. Time to get your SUV-detectors on maximum!

This month sees not one but two locations guides released!

The latest edition of Torchwood Magazine features an article on locations used in the show so far, broken down into Cardiff and South Wales areas for each of the two series. As one might expect from a wider interest magazine it doesn't go into greater detail such as filming dates and so forth like our own episode listings do (streets ahoy!).

Panini's latest guide the Series Four Companion, however, provides the same level of intricate production details that we've come to expect from these specialist volumes, with some 148 pages delving into each story from the last year (including the Children in Need special "Time Crash"), covering pre-production through to broadcast publicity. For us locationers there is of course plenty of detail on where the show was made!

Filming is currently taking place in Llantwit Major for the second season of The Sarah Jane Adventures, and is expected to continue until tomorrow (Tuesday).
