The Lost King - Filming in Stockbridge

The Lost King has been filming in Edinburgh for the last few weeks.   The movie is about the discovery of King Richard III's remains under a carpark in Leicester in 2012.   The King was killed in the Battle of Bosworth in 1485.  Sally Hawkins plays Philippa Langley, the amateur historian and President of the Scottish branch of the Richard III Society, who helped locate the King's remains.  Steve Coogan plays her husband and has co-written the film.  I was aware filming was going on in Edinburgh but I just stumbled across this shooting in Hamilton Place, Stockbridge.  Sally Hawkins is on the right of the photo outside the Bethany shop.  Stephen Frears is the director - you can just see him second from left in the photo.  Very interesting to see it done!
