Hit American TV series Succession will return for its fourth and final season later this month that promises to be an explosive ending.
The show, which stars iconic Scots actor Brian Cox, follows the Roy family as they wrestle for control of a global media and entertainment conglomerate. The latest season ended with Logan (Cox) ousting his children from the company after a failed revolt.
While fans of Succession will know that one of its episodes takes place in Scotland, those who have never seen it may be unaware that scenes for one of the biggest shows on television were filmed just a stone's throw away.
Like Cox, his character Logan's hometown is Dundee, and the eighth episode of the second season saw him return to the city after years away to celebrate his 50th anniversary as CEO of the company.
This celebration in fact took place at the V&A Dundee, and the episode was filmed on location in the city and at the venue.
While in Dundee, Logan and his family stay at The Gleneagles Hotel, approximately 45 minutes out of the city near the small town of Auchterarder. While this may seem like a long journey for the characters to make, it is renowned as one of the top hotels in the world and so is fittingly fancy for a family of billionaires.
Those who have had the privilege of staying at Gleneagles will know that it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The three-storey category B listed building dates back to 1924 and includes over 200 rooms.
As stated on the hotel's website, its rooms are "as glorious as the landscape that frames them, with a luxury five-star hotel feel". Every single one has been uniquely inspired by the mountains, meadows, rivers, and lakes of the nearby Perthshire countryside.
In addition to its luxurious rooms, the hotel features 10 establishments to eat and drink which "provide the perfect backdrop for special family celebrations, post-round drinks, romantic dinners and cosy nightcaps".
According to the hotel's website, the entire cast and crew of Succession stayed at the hotel for several days to film the episode and "enjoyed the culinary delights on offer" while there.
Among the food highlights is Gleneagles Andrew Fairlie which was crowned the best restaurant in the UK earlier this year. The only Two-Michelin star restaurant in Scotland, guests are treated to exceptional cooking in a truly opulent environment.
More information about The Gleneagles Hotel can be found on its website.
Season 4 of Succession arrives on Sky and NOW from March 27.
