Gloucester is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 11 productions, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
8 productions were filmed at 1 place inside Gloucester rather than at Gloucester itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.
“Other filming locations included Anglesey and Snowdonia for exterior shots, Gloucester docks as the docks of Ankh-Morpork, and the Royal Courts of Justice as the Patrician's Palace.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Gloucester as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Named here by Gloucester’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Gloucester, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
