Since the beginnings of the cinema, filmmakers have explored the cities, towns, villages, open countryside, mainland and islands of Britain, both as the backdrop to their stories and as subjects in themselves.

In this section you can browse films according to their locations (but please note that, for fiction films, the place a film is set is not necessarily the place it was filmed).
