The newest season of Netflix's "You" sees Joe Goldberg start a new life in London, England.
Filming took place at many iconic London landmarks such as St Pancras station and Kensington.

Joe's London residence can be found in one of London's most picturesque neighborhoods both in the show and in real life. However, when I visited it didn't live up to expectations.

Just like in the show, Kate lives on a parallel street to Joe, which is also in Kensington. I found it a lot nicer and very fitting for Kate's character.

Before you Google how to do a semester abroad at Darcy College, it's a fictional place. However, it was filmed at a real university in London.

Scenes set at Phoebe's family estate, Hampsbridge House, were filmed at Knebworth House.

The scenes inside of Hampsie House were actually filmed inside Knebworth House's grand rooms rather than on a sound stage.

While Phoebe's boudoir actually looks very similar in real life, there were no phallic candles to be seen.

The scene in which Phoebe's friends get the staff to act as human croquet hoops was filmed right behind the house on the sunken lawn.

If you're wondering what train station Joe followed Marianne to when she attempted to return to Paris, it's of course St Pancras International station.
