I’ve been really loving the Apple TV+ show Bad Sisters (written by Sharon Horgan and starring a heap of fine Irish talent) and trying to figure out all the locations where they’ve filmed things. Obviously they’ve twisted the geography of Dublin a bit, because TV, but most of the places are recognisable.
Can you help me fill in the gaps? I’m obsessive like that.
**Places I know:**
* Place where Becka is often seen walking: [Malahide Marina](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4544359,-6.1540377,3a,60y,32.8h,85.12t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sNJCEqJYZ1gJWCV398dStBw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)
* Spot where the Claffin brothers are usually shot driving about: [Malahide Estuary](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4632811,-6.2008278,3a,75y,61.1h,88.23t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sLqc2xR90lkIPl6WYHB-oFQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)

* Promenade where Ursula is often walking/is supposed to work in a hospital near: [Clontarf Promenade](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.357695,-6.1931428,2a,89y,258.94h,94.72t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sb1yqIEylbgK9tEkGOVnG0A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)
* Where JP first catches Ursula and Ben: [Clanwilliam Terrace](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.3399966,-6.239393,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sA-dnp09pCqEWbpu5SX_cLA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)
* Where Matthew “meets” Becka: this is somewhere along Sutton coast road, I think?
* Eva’s house: [somewhere on Howth Head](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Barrow+St,+Dublin,+Ireland/@53.3684623,-6.0759103,1922m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x48670eeb7282cd47:0x44099d1673a54bb6!8m2!3d53.339997!4d-6.2364792)
* Matthew and Becka have dates on [Dollymount Strand](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Barrow+St,+Dublin,+Ireland/@53.3545063,-6.165353,211m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x48670eeb7282cd47:0x44099d1673a54bb6!8m2!3d53.339997!4d-6.2364792) and [New St in Malahide (Pedestrianised version)](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4521167,-6.1539481,3a,39.4y,168.95h,91.17t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sFfXJ9OEi4befZYttn2VgvA!2e0!5s20210701T000000!7i16384!8i8192)
* [This bit of Howth](https://www.google.com/maps/@53.387765,-6.0670024,3a,75y,25.78h,83.21t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s45v9D6LRrs7AEKHLufrMpw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) popped up in Episode 7 where JP briefly meets Grace
* The golf course in Episode 7 is [Deer Park golf course in Howth](https://maps.app.goo.gl/J8VH4FoN55BTGXGJ8)
**Places I don’t know:**
* Marina where JP has his boat — it looks kind of like it’s outside Co Dublin to me, but I’m not certain
* The cobbled street that the Claffin Brothers office is on
* Hospital Ursula works at
* Eva’s office—there was some filming in London, this feels like something from there?
I might be overlooking some other obvious locations too, if you can remember them!

The golf course I thought was deer Park in howth
Such a great show with a great sense of humour too! Think your spot on with what you have. I’d just add the Pub scenes are typically Gibneys or Wrights in Malahide. I thought Matt & Becks crash was around the corner from Santa Sabina in Sutton and any chance the Claffins office is in Belfast as I think they did some filming there. The Gleasons grew up in Malahide and I think the Bono’s were around Howth so some connections for the cast there.
There was filming in Warrenpoint in the North. I know the house well, and I was there when it was being filmed. I cannot for the life of me think of which character’s house it is. Potentially Eva.
JP’s boat is in [Glenarm Marina](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rrcqqkG1TeHK8ztx5)
