Beaconsfield Film Studios is a British TV and film studio in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire. The studios were operational as a production site for films from the 1922 and continued producing films - and, later, TV shows - until the 1960s. Britain's first talking movie was recorded there, as were films starring British actors Peter Sellers and John Mills. From 1971 onwards it has been the home of an internationally recognised postgraduate school for film and TV production, famous as the birthplace of animated characters Wallace and Gromit.
