There has been further filming going on in Oxford. Townie on the forums says: “They were filming in Ship Street, between the Turl (where Exeter/Jordan is) and Cornmarket. There were lots of people in nice costumes and a fair few dons and riff-raffy looking people and some little street urchins. There was a real live cat and they were getting it to jump up on its hind legs using a clicking thing, then they got it to jump over what looked like trip wire close to the ground. I'm taking it to be somebody's dæmon.”

There have also been reports that there has been filming of scenes within “our” world. This would suggest that New Line may be taking the film away from the plot of the Golden Compass as we know it.

More exciting, Kirusato from the forums, managed to shoot some film on his mobile phone of the filming. You can watch it here.
