Keira Knightley and Hannah Waddingham joined their co-stars as filming continued this week on Netflix’s The Woman in Cabin 10 at Spencer Mathews’ Glen Affric family estate in Scotland.

Keira, 39, looked sensational in a maroon backless dress for the scenes as the characters attended a chic dinner in a huge glass marquee.

Meanwhile, Hannah, 50, donned a little black dress which she teamed with a sparkling pink blazer and dazzling diamond necklace.

Co-star Guy Pearce, 57, was also on set and cut a dapper figure in a classic tuxedo as he and Keira took to the stage during a tense scene.

The 60-mile-wide Glen Affric estate offers incredible Highland views and luxury accommodation from £12,000 a night, where Spencer, 36, wife Vogue, 39, and three children chose to spend their Christmas last year.

The filming took place in a huge glass marquee overlooking a beautiful lake

It is located 15 miles from Loch Ness and was purchased in 2018 by Spencer’s businessman father David.

Based on Ruth Ware’s bestseller of the same name, the film stars Keira as a travel journalist on a cruise who witnesses a murder, but no one believes her.

Last month while filming in the coastal town of Portland Harbour, Dorset, the production left residents ‘terrified’ after setting off fireworks from a superyacht.

Although a warning had been issued to residents ahead of the series of five-minute fireworks displays, many locals were left furious by the noise which stretched over three hours.

Many complained that the show was incredibly loud and disturbed sleeping children and frightened pets and some even said it sounded like a war had started.

One resident said: ‘It would have been good if I had been warned. Our windows rattled at the first blow and our young dog was petrified… Doesn’t anyone think about the animals?’.

While another explained that she had a dog that collapsed and a herd of scared horses.

And a third said: ‘Listening and past my bedtime, just when I thought they were done it started again.’

Some said the explosions “rattled my windows” and said, “I thought we were being bombed” and “I thought the Russians were coming.”

But one resident said: ‘It’s time for all the haters to get a grip on their lives. This has brought thousands of pounds into the local area. Announcements have been made.

‘If this was a ‘normal’ fireworks display on Weymouth seafront everyone would be ecstatic about it. It’s a film production, I guess this is better than the council would ever do?

Dorset Council has been working with the producers and has previously said they are keen to encourage film crews to the area.

A spokesperson said: ‘Dorset Council is keen to support the creative industries with a film-friendly environment and welcomes requests from production companies wishing to film in the region.
