===Television=== [[John Betjeman]] is shown standing in the Stadium in his 1973 BBC film ''[[Metro-Land (1973 film)|Metroland]]'', though, as John Bale has pointed out in ''Anti-Sport Sentiments in Literature: Batting for the Opposition'' (Routledge, 2007), he shows no real interest in Wembley's sporting connections, either here or elsewhere.<ref>{{cite book|title=Anti-Sport Sentiments in Literature: Batting for the Opposition|last=Bale|first=John|publisher=Routledge|year=2007|isbn=978-0415596251|pages=91}}</ref> In [[Nigel Kneale]]'s 1979 ''[[Quatermass (TV serial and film)|Quatermass]]'', in which ancient stone circles turn out to be locations designed by aliens to harvest young humans, the Stadium is said to have been built on the site of a stone circle ("the Sacred Turf they call it", says [[Bernard Quatermass|Professor Quatermass]], "I wonder what's underneath?")
