Cornwall is a better* film location! For example, Charlestown has featured in innumerable productions, and the surf beaches around Newquay doubled for North Korea in the (otherwise risible) 007 film Die Another Day.
*If you ignore the existence of Highlander, Braveheart, Whisky Galore etc. etc. Obviously.
This website lists 191 films shot (partly) in Scotland.

Yes, but ‘Flash Gordon’ is on that list.
Enough said.
