Southwold trader Jennifer Wells' rugs appear in the film

Jennifer Wells, who runs a market stall in Southwold and Framlingham, was approached by one of the film's production companies, Marmalade Productions, which bought more than 100 rugs, cushions and blankets from her for the new film.

She said: "I was pleasantly surprised to be contacted by the set designers. The Paddington films are known for their fantastic sets, so it will be fascinating to see how our unique products have been used in the new film."

Her company, Rainstick Trading, has been importing Peruvian fabrics since 2015 and Jonathan Wells, who co-owns the business with her, has travelled around Peru, visiting artisan makers.

She added: "The rugs are also known as frazadas and they come from the High Andes area of Juliaca, not so far from Lake Titicaca. 

"They are all individually handwoven, typically by families. This is very much a home industry rather than mass production."

The market stall is at Southwold on Mondays and Framlingham on Saturday mornings.
