About
FJL at Ealing Studios.
Ealing Studios off The Green in W5 has been making films since 1902. The oldest continuously operating film studio in the world, home of the Ealing Comedies in the forties and fifties, and now a working campus across television and feature work including Downton Abbey films, The Crown, Bridgerton work and Mission Impossible 7. The site sits inside a residential pocket of West London, which makes access tight and collection windows fussy. FJL has been working the Ealing route for years. We know which gate the lorries use, we know the local restrictions on time of day, and we know the studio runs across multiple stages with different productions in residence at once. Our depot in Uxbridge is twenty minutes up the road, which means short response times when a production schedule moves.
