Where's St James's Park? Behind-the-scenes pictures from The Crown set show Buckingham Palace and Downing Street just yards apart with season four set to air this month

Buckingham Palace is just metres from Downing Street on the set of The Crown at Elstree. 

Aerial images taken yesterday at the studios in Hertfordshire show the tricks used on the hit Netflix show to film exterior scenes at the two iconic London landmarks. 

While in real life, Buckingham Palace and Downing Street are separated by 23-hectare St James's Park, the stars of The Crown could quickly hop from one to the other.
