A stunning country house bordering Wiltshire is one of the primary settings in Guy Ritchie's new series, 'The Gentlemen'.

The Gentlemen spins off from Ritchie's acclaimed 2019 comedy-thriller ‘The Gentlemen’, which starred Hugh Grant, Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunham and Colin Farrell.

It is a new eight-part Netflix series which tells tales of aristocrats slumming it with society’s violent and undesirable.

Theo James plays Eddie Horniman, an aristocratic heir drawn into a world of gangsters headed up by former ‘Skins' actor Kaya Scodelario’s steadfast Susie Glass.

The ultimate cockney gangster, Ray Winstone, plays her menacing but incarcerated dad, Bobby.

The Gentlemen also reunites Ritchie with his old ‘Lock, Stock’ star Vinnie Jones.

Badminton House, Gloucestershire (bordering Wiltshire)

Halstead Manor, the ancestral seat inherited by James’s Eddie Halstead, was filmed at Gloucestershire’s Badminton House, actually the ancestral home of the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort – as well as the venue for the Badminton Horse Trials.

"Badminton felt immediately right for Halstead, because it’s a proper, lived-in home, rather than a National Trust museum," location manager Iggy Ellis explained to Time Out.

"There’d be walking sticks by the door or a few shotgun rounds from where they’d been out shooting. There were cracks and tired bits, as you’d get in every family home. But there were also oil paintings and history and majesty. It felt perfect for our story."
