This interview with Duncan MacKay is good, awaiting the book for a more precise location though:

Regarding the Chilterns:
1, The choreographing of the British approach has to be very constrained to get an advance into the place it would need to be for the scenarios presented.
2, There seems no way to contain/protect the flanks of a Roman force in the valley.
3, No really credible way to protect the rear of the Roman force in the scenarios.
The recent exchange underlined how much control over the British mob there would need to be to make the British forces act as a column for any distance. I just don't think that in the real world the forces or campaign could be controlled in such a way, it is only the terrain that can deliver and funnel the British to the point and killing ground Paulinus has chosen. The Chiltern candidate terrains are not good for this. (Mancetter, Bicester and Little Brickhill are even worse IMHO).
