Filming starts on new series of ITV drama Sanditon featuring Brean beach
Filming has started on a new series of ITV costume drama Sanditon, with several scenes set to be filmed at Brean over the coming months.
Sanditon was cancelled by ITV back in 2019 but an exhaustive fan campaign to save the show has secured another two seasons, which will be co-produced by BritBox UK and PBS Masterpiece.
“Fans who are craving romance and escape will find them in abundance in the new season of Sanditon, with its intriguing characters and captivating storylines,” says executive producer Susanne Simpson.
“Our partners at Red Planet Pictures have done a brilliant job capturing the magic that won viewers’ hearts in season one.”

Sanditon, the Jane Austen drama cancelled by ITV after one series, is to be revived after a campaign by fans.
ITV announced at the end of 2019 that the costume drama, based on Austen’s unfinished novel, would not return because its ratings were poor.
Fans were bereft and a group of women calling themselves the Sanditon Sisterhood began a campaign to keep the show alive.
