A few more behind-the-scenes moments from the filming of I Need a Minute at The Guv’nor 🎬

From cameras rolling to the incredible cast and crew bringing the space to life, it was exciting to watch our historic upstairs setting become part of the story. Seeing the atmosphere of The Guv’nor captured on screen was something truly special.

We’re grateful to have hosted such a talented team and can’t wait to see the final result.
