Killing Eve was here…

St Matthias Church has many fine reasons to feel proud: magnificent acoustic, quirky stained glass, long tradition of worship and singing, bright and beautiful interior. And now it joins the glamorous list of international locations where they filmed award-winning spy-thriller Killing Eve.

Summer 2021 saw all our St Matthias spaces besieged by the crew of Sid Gentle Films and stars of the BBC’s gripping catch-the-killer-drama, where two women become obsessed with each other, and the hunter becomes the hunted.

• St Matthias Church is where psychopathic assassin Villanelle makes new friends …….(watch episode 1)
• St Matthias vicarage is the location where Villanelle….(watch episode 1)
• St Matthias Hall was the breakfast room, for cast and crew, and waiting areas for actors due to go on set
• St Matthias School was transformed into dressing rooms, medical and and covid testing.

Said supervising location manager Adam Betterton: “It was a pleasure to film at St Matthias so thank you for all your help. Hopefully you would have us back again one day.”
