Movie cameras spotted in Hitchin with more filming planned

Crews were seen in the car park at Hitchin Swimming Centre yesterday (September 10), with North Herts Council confirming scenes were being shot at the outdoor pool.

"I can confirm that there was filming at Hitchin Lido yesterday, but unfortunately we are not able to release any further information at this early stage," a spokesperson told The Comet.

Rumours have been circulating that the footage is set to be used in an unconfirmed movie.

It won't be the last of the filming, as cameras are set to return to Hertfordshire on Thursday, with Luton Road and Hollybush Hill in Great Offley closed for filming between 9am and 3pm.

Hitchin's outdoor pool has featured in a film before, with the town whipped into a frenzy when Harry Styles was spotted taking a dip for scenes which appeared in My Policeman.

The town has been on both the big and small screen plenty of times before in fact, with the new Beetlejuice Beetlejuice movie including scenes filmed at the former Princess Helena College.

The BBC have also come to Hitchin a few times, capturing shots for Doctor Foster and on Windmill Hill for a currently in use ident.
