    Smile Filming on location.




    It looks like this new film 'Belgravia', due out this month , was partly filmed in Leamington Spa, as you can see a quick clip at the beginning.


    Delve into the scandalous lives of London’s grandest neighbourhood. From the producers of Downton Abbey, get ready for new drama #Belgravia ��
    Coming this March to ITV.

    I'm not into this sort of TV myself, but it costs a lot of money to make so I hope it's a success.
    Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.

    I don't have TV, but bits of Leamington Spa features in many films/or sitcoms, such as Keeping up Appearances, Upstairs Downstairs, and Pride and Prejudice, or such. I love the white buildings against the blue sky.

    Keeping up appearances was filmed around the corner from me when I was married. I also grew up quite close to where Onslo's place was and to where they filmed The Italian Job. - In fact I remember those sewers going in, we used to creep into them and play before they were used.

    Yes, I remember that being mentioned Keeping up Appearances was mainly filmed in Coventry.

    Loved that comedy.
