Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, red phone boxes and double-decker buses – this city is incredibly photogenic and has a special charm! If you haven’t had a chance to visit London yet, start by watching a selection of films from our selection and you will get to know the British capital.
“The Adventures of Paddington” and “The Adventures of Paddington 2”.
The first film will introduce you to a kind bear who comes to England to learn good manners and become a true gentleman. Everything in this story is beautiful: the charming main character, whose name resonates with the railway station of the same name, London as a postcard, and, of course, the incomparable Nicole Kidman.
In the second part, the events only gain momentum and even acquire a shade of thriller. If you find yourself in London and want to visit Paddington, you will not find Windsor Gardens, 32 in Notting Hill, because this place does not really exist. Writer Michael Bond, whose books are based on films, invented it by “mixing” the address of his parents’ Winser Drive with his own – Arundel Gardens. Watch The Adventures of Paddington right now
007 James Bond ‘Skyfall.
it’s hard not to fall in love here! Daniel Craig as James Bond enchanted the audience so much that after the film was released, he was even paired with Queen Elizabeth II at the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. They were shown walking towards the helicopter, which then flew along the River Thames to the stadium, where stuntmen and Bond jumped down from the helicopter to the music from the film. Remarkably, this video was the Queen’s first acting experience. Watch Skyfall right now

“Notting Hill”
And again on Hugh Grant’s screen, but this time with the beautiful Julia Roberts. He is a humble bookstore owner and she is a popular movie star. They will meet in one of London’s most beautiful neighbor hoods, and their love story begin. The house where Hugh Grant’s character lives used to belong to film scriptwriter Richard Curtis. And the park bench that was used to shoot the film left London and now “lives” in the beautiful Queens Gardens in Perth – just as the main characters of the film had dreamed. The most difficult task for the creators of the film was to obtain permission to shoot in the various locations of Notting Hill, but they handled it elegantly: each local resident was promised that the studio of their choice would transfer funds to charity. As a result, over two hundred different charities and societies received the money. Watch Notting Hill right now
