Chatsworth House appeared in the 2005 film adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. It represented Pemberley, Mr Darcy's home. The house itself is named in the novel as one of the estates Elizabeth Bennet visits before arriving at Pemberley. The house was also used in The Duchess (2008), featuring Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes, and The Wolfman (2010), with Benicio del Toro and Anthony Hopkins.
An episode of Interceptor was partially filmed in the grounds of Chatsworth (Derbyshire episode), as the key was hidden on the top of the Cascade waterwork. Griff Rhys Jones was a guest at Chatsworth while making and filming his show "Rivers with Griff Rhys Jones".
Chatsworth House is the subject of a three part documentary, Chatsworth, on BBC television.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“People try so hard to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher—a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. My Lord, no man can stand prominence these days. It’s the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“When a culture feels that its end has come, it sends for a priest.”
—Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
