==In popular culture== {{in popular culture|section|date=January 2022}} Eric Coates uses Knightsbridge as the setting of a march for the 3rd movement of his ''London Suite'' (1933). It gained popularity through the radio show ''[[In Town Tonight]]'' (1933β1960). Knightsbridge is referenced in the [[The Rolling Stones|Rolling Stones]] song "[[Play with Fire (The Rolling Stones song)|Play with Fire]]", released in 1965. Knightsbridge is used as an indicator of a character's affluence, as opposed to the more working class [[Stepney]]. According to season 3 episode 'Happy New Year,' Knightsbridge is the setting of the television series "[[Absolutely Fabulous]]." [[St Columba's Church, London|St. Columba's Church]] in Knightsbridge is the setting of a wedding in the 1996 episode 'The Last Shout.' Knightsbridge is referenced in the story book ''[[Neverwhere (novel)|Neverwhere]]'' by [[Neil Gaiman]] as a place the protagonists need to cross to go to the next floating market. "The Knightsbridge" is used as metaphor for the night and its dangers they need to pass through.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tor.com/2018/03/01/adventures-in-london-below-neverwhere-by-neil-gaiman/|title=Adventures in London Below: Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman|last=Brown|first=Alan|date=1 March 2018|website=Tor.com|language=en-US|access-date=28 September 2019}}</ref> In the 2017 film ''[[The Foreigner (2017 film)|The Foreigner]]'', Knightsbridge is the location of a detonated bomb that sets the plot in motion.
