Set at the end of the eighteenth century, The Duchess is the story of the beautiful and glamorous Georgiana Spencer, the most fascinating woman of her age.

Holkham was one of the country house locations selected for this film, which opens in cinemas across the country on September 5th.

Shooting in some of England's most spectacular country houses helped the cast. Stepping into centuries of history gave them a valuable sense of their character's backgrounds. The lead role of Georgiana was played by Keira Knightley and the Duke of Devonshire was played by Ralph Fiennes who explains: "I think to shoot in real locations and to have the actual fabric of the times around is fantastic."

Gaby Tana, one of the producers said: "We shot in these incredible mansions throughout England and you felt as if you really re-creating and re-living something."

Holkham Hall and Kedleston Hall in Derbyshire were used to recreate the interiors of Devonshire House, the London residence of the Duke of Devonshire - a building which no longer exists.

Now you have a chance to enjoy the film and to visit Holkham to see exactly where the scenes shown above were filmed.
