Production

Scenes for Prince Caspian were filmed at Arley railway station, Hawkstone Park and Pembroke Castle.

The parts of the series used in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader were filmed in Wales throughout summer 1989. The majority of the four Dawn Treader episodes were shot on location in Milford Haven, including scenes filmed aboard the Dawn Treader and for scenes set on Dragon Island. The cast and crew travelled to Tresco, Isles of Scilly for scenes taking place on fictional Doorn Island. Tresco Abbey Gardens and Plas Newydd stood in for Narrowhaven and Dufflepud Island respectively. The rest of the series was shot in Ealing Studios, including some scenes taking place on the deck of the Dawn Treader.

Warwick Davis portrayed the martial mouse Reepicheep in the production and would later go on to play the character of Nikabrik in the 2008 film Prince Caspian. According to Samuel West who played King Caspian, he stole one of Warwick Davis' latex prop noses and kept it after production ended. Despite having naturally curly hair, West also wore a wig during production.
