Anthony Daniels, best knowned as C-3PO in all the Star Wars films, told Great Britain's The Big Breakfast show in an interview, that filmmakers will begin shooting pickup scenes for Star Wars: Episode II in that country, according to a report on the Dark Horizons Web site. To avoid curious onlookers and movie set stalkers, the location is obviously being kept secret. And it won't be at either the Elstree or Leavesden Studios.

Daniels also revealed that his character will appear in its classic gold plating. The film's Australian crew gave Daniels a 12-inch model of his new metal plates costume. And Daniels also reportedly said that Episode II marked the first Star Wars production in which the R2-D2 droid operated trouble-free.
