The new series of a popular Disney+ show filmed in Wiltshire airs today (May 15).
Series two of Disney’s Rivals, a star-studded adaptation of Jilly Cooper’s popular 1980s novel, is available to stream from Friday, May 15.
The show, featuring major celebrities like David Tennant, Alex Hassell, Aidan Turner, Danny Dyer, and Emily Atack, was partly filmed in Wiltshire over the last few years.
Corsham could be set to feature heavily in the new series, after appearing in series one, with extensive filming taking place in the town centre over the last 12 months.
In June 2025, David Tennant, who plays Lord Tony Baddingham, and his on-screen wife Claire Rushbrook were both seen on the High Street while shooting for the new season was taking place.

In October, camera crews returned to the town centre alongside Alex Hassell, who plays Rupert Campbell Black, Aidan Turner, who plays Declan O’Hara, and Nafessa Williams, who plays Cameron Cook.
Finally, in February, more scenes were shot inside The Royal Oak pub in the town centre.
During these filming sessions, different buildings around the town centre were transformed to depict the fictional 1980s county of Rutshire.
The main characters from series one of the show are expected to return alongside guest stars Hayley Atwell and Rupert Everett.
