This small 'chocolate box' village is not quite as understated as it seems. Due to its closeness in proximity to Elstree Studio, it has been featured in quite the array of televisions and films.

Whilst it's probably best known internationally for its appearances in The Dirty Dozen and Bridget Jone's Diary, it's also featured in British gems such as Midsomer Murders, Inspector Morse and The Avengers.
