The current AA advert (You've got a friend) was shot in the Lake District
(and Manchester), according to the advertising agency. Can someone identify
the lake ant the pointy hill that appears towards the end. I should be able
to but haven't had the time yet. View the advert at
No I am not in league with the AA, a friend asked what the hill was!

The Fell is Yewbarrow, and the lake is Wastwater . . . .
The road is was filmed on is the Santon bridge to Wasdale Head road . .

No doubt about the hill & lack. However a 'screaming kid' alert would
have been nice - I could have muted the sound before my ears were
assailed!

The giveaway is the scree on the far side of the lake and that small island
a few feet from the bank. The mountain - I immediately said Yewbarrow, then
the second time I watched it, had a small doubt, but the narrow road soon
nodded my head back to my original view.
