The most jaw-dropping scene—the car collection inside the castle—wasn’t a set. It was real. Filmed at Penshurst Place in Kent, England. The same medieval manor has hosted royalty, but nothing compares to seeing it stuffed with toy cars and a flying automobile.
Fun fact: The crew used the actual Great Hall. They hauled in forty vintage cars just for that one scene. Imagine the insurance bill!
That grand staircase? That’s the real staircase where Lord Scrumptious stomped down. You can visit it today. Just don’t expect Dick Van Dyke to pop out.
