I do not really see in which scene this should happen.

It might make some sense in a White Council scene... however, you always have the issue of who is telling what to whom.
I found it rather ridiculous Faramir would point around on a map like this to one of his highest rangers - the guy surely knows where Rohan and Gondor lie, it is not like Faramir is describing any micro-movements of armies in Ithilien, but the overall situation of the war, which should be pretty clear to everybody.
So, it wouldn't make sense to have Gandalf pointing around on a map, showing the other WC members where they will go, and where the company might go or be.
Maybe he could show the company in Beorn's house where to go while he is away, or Bilbo could get a glimpse of a map in Thranduil's Halls while looking for an escape possibility (and then realizing that the river will lead them directly to Esgaroth). That Bilbo option might actually work the best...
However, I do not find it that essential... people not knowing the Middle-earth map will still have some troubles following such a scene, imho, and since Bilbo probably does not really know where he is right now either, it is simply part of an adevnture somewhere in the wilderness.

Bilbo looking on a map would be logical
