Though doing a swimwear shoot poolside may be obvious, we really want this as its the idea of a mega-glamorous lady poolside at a council lido with tacky water toys, preferably weathered and as unchanged as possible. Its a bit similar to the idea behind my RSA.
All five of the above Lidos have issues around why they have been hard to get, ranging from high charges for filming to difficult opening hours to not picking up the phone. Also with some of the genuine council places, they require public liability insurance. Waiting on contacts at all five of these places to call me back!
Current favourite has to be Ealing... its private, which could be a blessing, and it is the genuine 1940s article, grade 3 listed and 100% untouched save the deck chairs and the chlorine.

Also one up near me at Hampstead heath, maybe worth checking out?
