Paris 1908 (Passion for Life)

First Aired: 6/19/93

Directed by: Rene Manzor

Like most episodes set in Europe, this one featured a few shots of landmarks in Paris but the majority was filmed in and around Prague, Czech Republic.

An excerpt from George Lucas: The Creative Impulse:

“After using Prague for some scenes, production moved to Paris with fifty extras with a small 6 person crew, & shot footage around Louvre for authenticity.”

During bridging scenes, we see a highly digitally altered stock footage shot of the oldest-surviving Greek cable laying ship Thalis o Milisios, docked at the Aegian Maritime Museum at Flisvos Marina near Athens.

During transitional scenes, there is a passing shot of Waddesdon Manor in Aylesbury, UK. 

We see the Joneses arrive to Paris at Luton Hoo Hotel, a popular filming site in the UK.
