Production stopped for two days last week on the BBC thriller after a positive test among members of the cast and crew.

The cases did not include leading actors Jodie Comer, 28, who plays assassin Villanelle, or Sandra Oh, 50, who plays agent Eve ­Polastri.

A spokesman for the production said: “In compliance with government guidelines, production paused on Killing Eve series four for two days. Filming has now resumed.”

The show is the latest in a line of dramas which have had to halt production, including steamy Netflix period drama Bridgerton.
