I watched Black Doves on Netflix and there was Keira Knightley in my mustard yellow scarf. I bought it from M&S about two years ago, which must have been about when it was filmed. I don't look very much like Keira Knightley at all, but now, in my head, every time I put my scarf on, I look exactly like her and am on a spy mission!

An IKEA bath towel with fish on it on the Netflix series Occupied.

I was watching Coronation Street about 10 years ago and noticed that Gail was wearing ‘my’ black/grey leopard print top from Whistles.
I sold it on EBay the very next day! 😁

We used to have green kitchen units like in the Billy Elliot film. We still had them at the time the film came out! Social housing. They lasted over 30 years.

Lisa Dingle in Emmerdale was wearing a top I had. Went in the charity bin soon after!

I owned a few jumpers that Hermione wore in one of the early Harry Potter films. Also a coat worn by Tracy Ann Oberman's character in eastenders. Could be worse 😆

Jane Beale was once wearing a top of mine on Eastenders (M&S).

Pam and Mick in Gavin & Stacey had my curtains. They actually had the matching sofa as well (I didn't).

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 20/01/2025 17:43

A cardigan that I really liked was worn by Eileen grimshaw on coronation street and I never wore it again!

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 20/01/2025 17:44

So....soaps have a lot to answer for..ruining our wardrobe choices. What a waste!

BobbyBiscuits · 20/01/2025 17:44

Only when it was me wearing it. Lol.

Chemenger · 20/01/2025 17:44

When we moved in to our last house the living room wallpaper was the same as Father Ted’s bathroom.

Red poppy Kate Moss topshop dress in everything I know about love with dolly alderton is one I defo remember, I used to wear it out partying in Camden in the late 00s so it felt very nostalgic watching her in it!

CherryRipe1 · 20/01/2025 17:47

My old car in an advert. A film studio prop hire place bought it off me.

My habitat duvet set featured in many TV dramas about 10 years ago

vikingnorthutsiresouthutsire · 20/01/2025 17:50

The first cooker we had in our first flat together in the mid 80s regularly appears in dramas set in the 50s/60s! It was ancient when we acquired it from an elderly relative, but was actually a very good cooker. I think it must be in several props departments as it pops up quite often.
I just found a photo of it!

tea/coffee mugs from anthropologie on British Bake off.

SpinUp2 · 20/01/2025 17:53

Cushions from IKEA - can't remember which programme it was though.

KnewYearKnewMe · 20/01/2025 17:54

Ooh - great question.

Another Gavin and Stacey one here... Stacey had a ruched boob-tube flared-type beige-flowery-sequinny summer top from Next in the episode where they found out about Gavin's sperm count - probably around 2016/17?

I had that!

Nigellasrockyroad · 20/01/2025 17:54

Yes. A couple of tops from monsoon that I saw on death in paradise. They are very colourful and only ever worn on holidays.

Azandme · 20/01/2025 17:56

Years ago Libby in Eastenders went to an Indian wedding in my favourite Monsoon top.

I went right off it!

Annabel Croft once wore a white and green silk Rixo dress of mine whilst reporting from Wimbledon... and I spotted Nigella Lawson in my 100 Stars robe. Both of these at least 5 yrs ago. They've probably got rid of those pieces of clothing but I still have mine!
