Twickenham Film Studios is a film studio in St Margarets, in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, that is used by various motion picture and television companies. It was established in 1913 by Ralph Jupp on the site of a former ice rink. At the time of its original construction, it was the largest film studio in the United Kingdom.[1]
In February 2012, it was announced that due to the studio going into administration, it would close before June, just a year before its centenary.[2][3] The studio was subsequently saved from closure, with a new owner acquiring the studio in August 2012.[4]
The studios were acquired in February 2020 by The Creative District Improvement Co. with backing from British Airways Pension Fund and TIME + SPACE Studios as operator on a long lease to run the studios.[5]
