Hollywood stardom awaits for a Beaconsfield pub after a movie filmed at the medieval building won big at the Golden Globe awards last night.
Last year, makers of Stephen Hawking biopic The Theory of Everything used the Royal Standard Of England in Forty Green to film scenes depicting the scientist's college years.
And in a glitzy bash in Beverley Hills, British star Eddie Redmayne picked up the gong for Best Actor in a Drama for his role as the revered physicist and thinker, who suffers from motor neurone disease.
The pub was transported back in time to 1963 for the filming, with Redmayne acting out scenes from the award-winning scientist’s Cambridge University days.
The Theory of Everything focuses on a period in Hawking’s life when he was forced to come to terms with being diagnosed with the degenerative condition.
It also scooped the Golden Globe for Best Original Score.
