Two Dakotas , G-ANAF and N473DC are reported to have flown into White Waltham today, where a large film set has been constructed. There are suggestions that the film is called SAS, though that may be a be a ‘working’ title.

The timing doesn’t seem to fit that well. The hyperlinked report dates from 2019; the series was supposed to be broadcast in 2020; and we are now in 2021. Or maybe that’s just the protracted way in which the BBC operates these days!
Addendum: wikipedia says that: ‘It was announced in March 2021 that filming had begun on the six part miniseries [SAS: Rogue Heroes]’.

That looks a good prospect – thanks
There is a DH Rapide on the set as well, not sure if part of this production.

It’s the two Aerolegends aircraft – they passed over Maidstone yesterday morning and Shoot Aviation have posted photos on their social media of the two aircraft at White Waltham.
