Sherborne Town Council | A German production company called Florianfilm, are currently working on a cultural documentary called King of Spies in co-operation with the European film channels ZDF and ARTE, which will be focusing on the life and works of John le Carré, as well
as the espionage genre he influenced so much. The film will be released in November of this year simultaneous with the release of the author’s latest novel. Click here for more information.
King of Spies will contain a lot of historical archive material and feature film clips, interviews with eye-witnesses, protagonists who will be both criticising and complementing his work and genre. And of course we will follow the author himself to the most important locations of his novels. We plan to film on location in Sherborne, as David Cornwell a.k.a. John le Carré used to go to school here, on Wednesday the 21th of May 2008. The footage will be used in a documentary there will also be no actors involved and we will neither need any of the locations to be sealed off nor do we have the intention to disrupt any ongoings on the day. The footage is supposed to purely create an atmosphere and visually depict the town and its sights.

Sherborne Castle | SHERBORNE CASTLE stars in ITV’s new documentary TV series “A TALE OF TWO CASTLES”. On Sunday evenings on ITV1 south west regions from Sunday 13th April at 6.00pm for six weeks. New ITV series “A TALE OF TWO CASTLES” looks at two families and their day-to-day life as the keepers, for nearly 400 years, of two castles – Sherborne Castle in Dorset and St. Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. Filmed over ten months, this lively observation documentary series is a colourful behind the scenes portrait of 21st Century life at the two castles, following the present day activities of two very traditional homes. Alongside some special events, the series skips between the lives of the two families and their castle and estate staff as they go about their work, and at times become part of the spectacle themselves! A “Tale of Two Castles” shows how Sherborne Castle and its grounds are kept in immaculate condition as a renowned historic property, with a team of dedicated staff to run the castle and
surrounding estate. Click here for more details.
