Press Welcome

Thames rockets regularly welcome film crews, photographers and journalists onto our fleet of Thames Rockets. This is filming on the river Thames made easy!

Whatever you require from the River Thames; we can provide. Our Rockets are specifically designed to manoeuvre into those ‘hard to reach’ spots, ensuring the very best results every time.


From Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to Top Gear, from the Graham Norton Show to Surprise Surprise, we’ve welcomed many of the top TV and film companies to get the shots they need. Dispatches, Soccer AM, Bear Grylls, Union J, Jedward’s Big Adventure, and most recently The Apprentice and Dogs Might Fly. We are known and respected as we know how to get the best shots each and every time.

It’s not just film and TV we specialise in – we’ve been called upon to take some of the biggest stars and acts in the world and get them to the gig on time at the famous O2 Arena in Greenwich. Ozzy Osbourne, Robert Redford, The Rolling Stones, The Black Eyed Peas, Led Zeppelin, The Eagles, Michael McIntyre, Peter Kay, Pink and many more.

Thames Rockets have the knowledge of the Thames and the experience required for the smoothest of shoots with paramount results. No matter what your project our skilled bookings operators can take you step by step through the process ensuring every detail is attended to. Only Thames Rockets have the knowledge and track record to deliver just what you want all from the most famous waterway in the world.
