Cénarèt

I have split Cénarèt into two pages  1. episode 63 The Silver Rider and 2. episode 62 The Bridge.

This page is about episode 63 The Silver Rider and some short extra's of episode 62 The Bridge to compare it.

Cenaret is situated in Lozere.

A shot of a tower

Left you see a tower. This must be elsewhere, we think not in Cenaret. Unknown location.                                                       

William is a little lower. 1988                                                                                  C. Petit made this photo in the summer of  2020

                                                              The camp                                                                                       Thank to C. Petit for this map.

To compare

  Episode Silver Rider 63 Tell is thrown off the rock       Episode 62 intro of episode Bridge, the cameraman just turned the angle a bit      Cenaret 2015                             

Tell falls twice, one time in the grey gravel and one time from the rock (a tree breaks his fall), in fact the stuntdouble's fall.

Below a photo from C. Petit, Summer 2020

Cenaret gravel fields

The fall from the gravel hills 1988                                                                          2017                  

To compare: This gravel field they also recorded the intro of episode The Magician. Tell saddles off his horse and lets it go free (below). Shot is taken low in the gray gravelfield. 2018

I assumed this was Ispagnac, close to the bridge of Quezac, but it was Mr. Petit who pointed at Cenaret.

I think we can conclude that these gambling addicts are quite merciless to Tell...time after time ;)

    On the plateau

Episode 62 The Bridge is also filmed on this plateau. I think it was Horst's camp.

Seen from the plateau, the scene of the camp of these gamblers, is a little bit lower shot.  

                         Shot from Crossbow 1988                                                                            2018                                               

Brothers in arms

After the Silver rider attacks Tell finds out there is another man helmed. They start to operate together. 

At the camp

2018         Scene: They manage to reach the camp of the gamblers.                  1988
