BLENHEIM Palace seemingly appears in the first official trailer for the new James Bond film Spectre.
Scenes for the lastest 007 installment starring Daniel Craig were filmed at the iconic stately home in Woodstock last month and this weekend production company Eon released its first official trailer.
At 49 seconds into the trailer Bond's Aston Martin cruises into shot through an archway.
Car scenes were shot at Blenheim and the pillars in shot appear to be identical to those at the Duke of Marlborough's family seat.
The trailer hints at the central story line for Spectre, in which a mysterious message from his past sends Bond to try to unmask a sinister organization.
As well as Craig, Spectre stars Christoph Waltz, Monica Bellucci, Léa Seydoux, Naomie Harris and Ralph Fiennes.
It is expected to be released on November 6.
