Have a look at the new EastEnders set as filming begins
1 year ago
A first look of the new EastEnders set has been released as filming begins on the soap.
The former Albert Square set was built in 1984 with an intention to be used for two years and was no longer “fit for purpose,” the BBC has said.
On Tuesday, filming commenced on the new and improved set, including in the famous Queen Vic, with scenes due to air in Spring 2022.
The investment in the BBC’s longest-running TV serial drama and wider BBC Elstree Centre will enable improved high definition for Walford fans.

It has also enhanced filming options, with EastEnders production now able to explore new areas on screen.
As a result, the soap’s writers, producers and directors will have greater freedom to drive further creativity.
It’s a big day at BBC Elstree today as filming starts on the new EastEnders set. The ‘new’ Walford allows production to explore new areas on screen giving us greater freedom to drive further creativity. We can’t wait to see it on our screens in the next few months! #EastEnders pic.twitter.com/cYNI5UVosE
