My Oxford Year has officially arrived on Netflix, starring Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest.
The film, based on Julia Whelan's book of the same title, sees ambitious American student Anna (Carson) jet off to the UK for a year at Oxford University. Here, she meets Jamie (Mylchreest), a charming British professor, and the encounter changes both their lives.
The university acts as the main backdrop for the story, but is it actually filmed in Oxford?
Here's everything you need to know.
Viewers will be happy to hear that My Oxford Year was actually filmed in Oxford.
Some of the university scenes actually took place at Oxford University, specifically at Magdalen College, which is one of the constituent colleges that make up the university. The official name of the college is: The President and Scholars of the College of St. Mary Magdalen in the University of Oxford.
Other locations included St Hugh's College and Hertford College, which are both based in Oxford, while additional scenes were filmed in Windsor.
"It was an honour and joy to dive into Anna's world of dreams, of love, of poetry. To study the great poets that walked the halls of Oxford, and who have since filled our lives with the magic of literature. In 1833, Alfred Tennyson wrote, 'It is better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.' Two hundred years after Tennyson so beautifully uttered those words, they ring truer than ever - in the halls of Oxford, and within the heart of our film,' Carson said.
"I have a friend that studied for uni in Oxford, and so there was a period of my life where I was going up and getting the train to Oxford quite frequently,' Mylchreest said.
My Oxford Year is available to stream on Netflix.
