Shot in Fulking
No, it is not a still from a remake of Gone With The Wind. But it was “filmed on location in Fulking and Birling Gap in Sussex”, apparently. ‘Shot in Fulking’ would be an appropriate epitaph for whichever local resident facilitated the production.

Boring for Borwick
The Mid Sussex Times writes:
Jonathan Bore, who began public scrutiny of Mid Sussex District Council’s planning framework on Tuesday, previously worked for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. There he worked with Lady Borwick, now MP for the area, when she was a councillor and met her husband Lord Borwick, a director of Mayfield Market Towns, which is looking to build 10,000 new homes near Sayers Common. Speaking at the start of the hearing on Tuesday, Mr Bore said: “I occasionally saw Lord Borwick at formal occasions, but I never discussed planning issues with him. None of this has any bearing on my impartiality.”
