TV show Homes Under the Hammer films at former Callander hotel
A production crew was spotted filming at the former Eagle Hotel on Tuesday.
The Courier understands filming was taking place at the Main Street building in Callander for Homes Under the Hammer.
The BBC series follows properties that are sold at auction and then renovated by their new owners.
The former Eagle Hotel went up for auction last year with a guide price of £99,500.
The C-listed building was previously used as a retail unit, including a golf shop, but has lain vacant for years.
It has also been used as a private home.
In 2019, planning permission was granted to change its use to an office and flats.
Listed building consent was also previously approved.
Details of when the Callander property is likely to feature on Homes Under the Hammer have yet to be revealed.
It comes after Martel Maxwell, a Courier columnist and one of the show's presenters, filmed in Dundee earlier this year.
The Courier was later given an exclusive look at the home in the city's Charleston area following its renovation.
A Stirling flat featured on Homes Under the Hammer in 2024, one of five times properties in the area have featured on TV shows in recent years.

Reeves will be Chancellor ‘for a very long time', PM says after Commons tears
Rachel Reeves will be Chancellor for a 'very long time to come', Sir Keir Starmer has said after she was seen crying during Prime Minister's Questions. The Prime Minister said it was 'absolutely wrong' to suggest the Chancellor's visibly tearful appearance in the Commons related to the welfare U-turn, which put an almost £5 billion black hole in her plans. 'It's got nothing to do with politics, nothing to do with what's happened this week. It was a personal matter for her. 'I'm not going to intrude on her privacy by talking to you about that. It is a personal matter,' he added while speaking to the BBC's podcast Political Thinking with Nick Robinson. Asked if Ms Reeves would remain in her post, the Prime Minister said: 'She will be Chancellor by the time this is broadcast, she will be Chancellor for a very long time to come, because this project that we've been working on to change the Labour party, to win the election, change the country, that is a project which the Chancellor and I've been working on together.' The Chancellor has done a 'fantastic job', Sir Keir also told the BBC, adding: 'She and I work together, we think together. In the past, there have been examples – I won't give any specific – of chancellors and prime ministers who weren't in lockstep. We're in lockstep.' Markets took fright after scenes of Ms Reeves's tears spread, with the value of the pound and long-term Government bonds slumping sharply. In the Commons, Tory leader Kemi Badenoch said Ms Reeves looked 'absolutely miserable' and challenged the Prime Minister to say whether she would keep her job until the next election. Sir Keir dodged the question about whether Ms Reeves would be in place for the remainder of the Parliament, saying Mrs Badenoch 'certainly won't'. Downing Street then insisted Ms Reeves was 'going nowhere' and will remain as Chancellor. Allies, meanwhile, said she was dealing with a 'personal matter' when asked about her tears. Sir Keir, who stumbled on his way out of Downing Street for Prime Minister's Questions, faced questions over his handling of a welfare reform package, which has been stripped of key elements to limit the scale of a Labour revolt. Changes to restrict eligibility for the personal independence payment (Pip) were abandoned on Tuesday, just 90 minutes before MPs voted on them, wiping out the savings that Ms Reeves had counted on to help meet her goal of funding day-to-day spending through tax receipts rather than borrowing. As the Chancellor left the Commons after Prime Minister's Questions, her sister, Ellie Reeves, took her hand in an apparent show of support. Reports suggested Ms Reeves had been involved in an altercation with Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle shortly before Prime Minister's Questions. Sir Lindsay was said to have censured Ms Reeves for her approach to Treasury Questions earlier in the week, and the Chancellor reportedly responded that she had been 'under so much pressure'. A spokeswoman for the Speaker said: 'No comment.' Asked why Sir Keir did not confirm in the Commons that he still had faith in Ms Reeves, the Prime Minister's press secretary told reporters: 'He has done so repeatedly. 'The Chancellor is going nowhere. She has the Prime Minister's full backing. 'He has said it plenty of times, he doesn't need to repeat it every time the Leader of the Opposition speculates about Labour politicians.' Asked whether the Prime Minister still had confidence in Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall, the press secretary said: 'Yes.' Govt was planning to save ~£5bn in 2029-30 through welfare cuts – would have risen to ~£11bn in long run Now, govt will save nothing this parliament (2029-30 savings from cutting health element of UC (£1.7bn) roughly offsets cost of raising basic UC (£1.8bn)) — Helen Miller (@HelenMiller_IFS) July 2, 2025 Labour has promised that income tax, employee national insurance contributions and VAT will not be increased, restricting Ms Reeves's options for raising money if she does look to hike taxes. The Institute for Fiscal Studies's incoming director, Helen Miller, said: 'Since departmental spending plans are now effectively locked in, and the Government has already had to row back on planned cuts to pensioner benefits and working-age benefits, tax rises would look increasingly likely. 'This will doubtless intensify the speculation over the summer about which taxes may rise and by how much.'

Keir Starmer breaks silence after Rachel Reeves in tears at PMQs
Keir Starmer has said he and Rachel Reeves are in "lockstep" as he praised the "excellent job" she is doing as Chancellor after she was tearful during PMQs. The Prime Minister said she will be Chancellor for "many years to come" after earlier swerving a question on her future in the Commons. In his first words since Ms Reeves's tearful appearance this afternoon, Mr Starmer told the BBC: "She's done an excellent job as Chancellor and we have delivered inward investment to this country in record numbers. "She and I work together, we think together. In the past there have been examples - I won't give any specifics - of chancellors and prime ministers who weren't in lockstep. We're in lockstep." The PM said Ms Reeves's tears was to do with a personal matter, on which he would not elaborate. He said it had "nothing to do with politics" or this week's dramatic welfare U-turns. Pressed on whether it was, Mr Starmer said: "That's absolutely wrong. Nothing to do with what's happened this week. It was a personal matter for her, I'm not going to intrude on her privacy by talking to you." We'll be bringing you the latest updates on this Breaking Politics News story.
