More Prague locations revealed as local residents complain about traffic and noise

Casino Royale - 04-02-06
Ananova reports on the new James Bond film turning Prague residents lives into a misery due to the extra traffic and noise.

"James Bond has become public enemy number one in Prague after filming started on the new 007 movie.

Residents living around the studio where Casino Royale is being filmed complained their lives are being made a misery by the noise and traffic. They say high performance cars constantly speed down the roads, weaving between stretch limos carrying the stars and huge lorries carrying stage props.

Less than a week after filming started, a petition was handed to officials at the town hall by angry residents demanding they take action to stop the noise.

Officials at the local council also admitted that the phones have been ringing non-stop from people complaining about the racket.

And after sending experts to the studio the council has now backed the residents, and ordered controls on the comings and goings around the Modrany film studio, a former industrial site in the east of the capital.

Filming at Modrany is due to continue for the next 10 days. It will then be shot at Strahov monastery before the crews move to the Bahamas.

In early March they will return to Prague and work at the Barrandov film studio, the city's main studio.

Production company Stillking insists all noise and traffic levels are within the agreed limits but has pledged to take more care in future to avoid upsetting locals."

Thanks to `David C` for the alert.
