When they shot
Doctor Who - The Talons of Weng Chiang,
they had to find a London street that still looked Victorian-era for a night shoot. They found one, and then had to ensure no one parked their car there. They let all the residents know and put up signs warning people not to park.
When they turned up for the shot, they discovered that there was a residents' car slap bang in the middle of the shot - and its owners had gone on vacation for the weekend. Doctor Who didn't have a massive budget, so the shoot had to go ahead. Cue frantic discussion by the set people, trying to work out how to get a five-door hatchback to blend into Victorian London.
Thus it was that when the episode aired, the entire car was buried beneath a massive pile of manure.
‘Captain America’ Opens Massively with $10.2 Million at Latenight U.S. Shows.
The figure came in well above comparable Thursday night figures for similar tentpoles, such as $9 million for “Man of Steel,” $8.8 million for “The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug,” $7.1 million for ‘Thor: The Dark World” and $4.9 million for “Divergent.”

I WAS GONNA GO TONIGHT BUT VERMIN INTERFERED! WOES.
Saw it. Loved it.
I think the thing that shocked/upset me most was
Sitwell being a Hydra agent.
Also, they did a good job of making me
feel very sorry for Bucky while still making the Winter Soldier seem very, very dangerous. I LOVED that we got flashbacks to the 1940s, complete with Skinny!Steve.
I thought Evans and Johanssen had excellent chemistry - they played really well off each other. I also thought Evans and Mackie had great chemistry, and I will be VERY DISAPPOINTED if the fic writers do not take immediate and copious advantage of this.
