A man has been charged with voyeurism after a spy camera was found in women’s toilets at the studios where the next James Bond film is being made.

Peter Hartley, 49, was arrested following the discovery at Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire, earlier this week.

Police launched an investigation after the incident was reported by Pinewood Studios.

“We take this issue very seriously,” the company said in a statement. “We reported the incident to the police and are supporting them with their investigation.”

Thames Valley Police said a man had been arrested in connection with a report of voyeurism.

A spokesman for the force said Mr Hartley, of Uxbridge, was charged on Saturday morning.

Filming for the 25th James Bond movie – still known only as Bond 25 – began in April.

On Thursday the Prince of Wales visited the site and met Craig and Ralph Fiennes, who plays M, as well as director Cary Fukunaga.
