A spike in filming in Wandsworth in the last year has seen almost £200,000 raised in revenue for the council's coffers.

Close to one tenth of all filming in London now takes place in the borough, according to the latest figures.

Wandsworth Council's film office has been working with a host of different film-makers over the past year to arrange television and film shoots.

According to research by Film London, Wandsworth has leapt to number three in the top 10 London boroughs for filming, and now accounts for 8.7 per cent of all filming in the capital.

In recent weeks, eagle-eyed residents may have spotted film stars Eric Bana, Rebecca Hall, Ciaran Hinds and Jim Broadbent filming an as yet untitled suspense thriller in the borough.

Meanwhile, the cast of BBC show New Tricks - Dennis Waterman, Amanda Redman, Alun Armstrong and James Bolam - have been busy filming series nine in Wandsworth.

Scenes from the Iron Lady and music videos for pop band One Direction have also been filmed in the borough.
