People have been speculating online about whether it is a show or a music video that is being filmed.

Several people have been suggesting crews are set up filming for a music video, with singers like Sabrina Carpenter, Hayley Williams, and Nicki Minaj being rumoured as the potential artists.

One person has suggested crews are filming for the new series of the Disney+ show, Rivals.

They said: “Outside are yellow RL BASE signs.

“RL stands for Red Lady which is the working title for the second series of Rivals, so, I believe that is what is filming in the church.”

Someone else said there are other rumours suggesting the new Harry Potter series is being filmed in the church.
