Timothy Combe (production assistant): "I travelled miles trying to find those poplar trees. I had a hell of a job! Every now and then you'd find some poplars, but in the time of the French Revolution you couldn't have them going along a road. So I managed to find some located alongside a track adn we shot the Doctor walking along." (src :On Location © Richard Bignell)
