      I have come across three: when you go to find the power rod on the clock face, on the side opposite the door, when Rory is fixing the EMP and when Amy is looking for a distraction at the the end. But I have played it twice and they were not in the same place bth times.

      Right where guy fawkes is standing theres an open door. go through that door, down the stairs, turn left to a barrel. push the barrel and then go down the trap door. you will come under the bridge. go to the 2 stumps and loosen the ropes. this then moves the platform so you can get to the other side. the fuse wire is near some boxes on the floor away from the bridge. hope this helps.
