Given that Petworth is most famous for its vast collection of art, it was the perfect location to shoot the art-gallery scenes in season two of "Bridgerton." Following the failed wedding of Edwina and Anthony, the Bridgerton and Sharma families try to keep up appearances with their trip to the gallery, while Anthony aims to get some alone time with Kate.
Filming of the show took place in the North Gallery, with the UK National Trust needing to move a number of collection items to accommodate the film crews. Sue Rhodes, visitor experience manager, said of the filming, "It was as though the people in the paintings had stepped out of their canvases — you got a real glimpse of what Petworth would have been like during its golden age."
As well as its art, the property has a 700-acre Deer Park, and Ionic Rotunda, and Doric Temple.
