The 10 movies and TV shows filmed in Richmond in recent years

By The Editor 13th Feb 2021

Did you know Richmond has been the backdrop for some of the biggest award-winning productions of recent years, from Fleabag to Bridgerton?

Richmond Council has worked to ensure the borough's "huge" popularity is put to good use by asking production companies who film in the borough to contribute to local good causes.

Over the past three years (2018-2020) these donations have raised in excess of £85,000 for local charities and groups.

During this same period Richmond upon Thames has seen a combined total of 830 days of filming.

The borough has been used for numerous films and TV dramas, including:

  • Finding Alice (ITV)
  • Bridgerton (Netflix)
  • Ted Lasso (Apple TV+)
  • The Thames: Britain's Great River with Tony Robinson (Channel 5)
  • Gangs of London (Sky Atlantic)
  • The Bodyguard (BBC)
  • Fleabag (BBC Three/Amazon Studios)
  • Unforgotten (ITV)
  • The Great (All4)
  • Peter Rabbit 2 (Columbia Pictures/Sony Pictures Animation).

"Richmond upon Thames has become a hugely popular location for production companies to use due to the borough's stunning historical architecture and amazing natural spaces."
