Sorry, you're wrong. This was shot at Blackhall Colliery, a few miles south of Easington. I know, because I was there watching them filming this!

@odiloglobocnik Hi. The buckets take stone and other waste material (slag) from the nearby colliery (coal mine) out to sea. The coalminers themselves actually worked under the sea - the coalface was about 3-4 miles out. You're right the beaches round there and the sea were always too dirty for swimming etc but in recent years they're trying to reclaim them.

this is just why a British film industry is vitally important. We can look at films from yesteryear and see how street scenes, industry, and to some extent everyday life, was before they were all swept away. We can`t get that from Hollywood.
Revenge belongs to God alone, not to the people as is written in the Bible!

@franciszek8D
right, you have your point of view based upon the Bible.
in most countries, the rule of law is decided by the jury, judge, or court.

As a kid I used to play near those coal slag buckets on that beach (Blackhall). I remember them filming (all the fuss locally) tho I didn't see it.

Just returned from the UK, it's the Blackhall colliery beach. I used the Get Carter Tour site to find it. I actually stayed at a caravan park nearby and mentioned it to a local, he pointed me right to the spot. The overhead towers have been demolished, but a few bits of twisted metal remain. A small concrete channel running down the hill marks the spot. Beach still stinks of rotten old coal, and there's litter everywhere. Goodbye Eric!
