'The natural beauty found all around the Forest of Dean has caught the eye of filmmakers who want to catch more magical shorts. 'The 2001 hit ‘Bridget Jones’ Diary’ was filmed in Snowshill while just 13.5 miles away at the former RAF Little Rissington base, scenes from ‘Die Another Day’ were filmed the following year. 'Some of the biggest hits, such as the Harry Potter films, have brought in a lot of tourism for Gloucester and the Cathedral over the years and we already have some big hits in the pipeline for the coming years.'Ī city council spokesperson said 'Gloucester Cathedral has played a big role in being one of the filming locations for a total of eight hit films and TV shows included within the map, such as the ‘Harry Potter’, ‘Sherlock’ and ‘Mary Queen of Scots’, while Berkeley Castle has also been home to both ‘Johnny English Strikes Again’ and ‘Poldark’.
“Over the years, we’ve seen so many great films and TV shows use Gloucestershire as a hub for one or more filming locations, and they really do help to showcase our beautiful part of the world.
