Thanks to the generosity of IPC staff, we have just returned from 3 days filming to gather shots of the places which were so influential in the lives of the subjects of our stories.
Thursday took us to Leeds, to Yorkshire Television where Tony used to work as a script writer for (among other things) Emmerdale. We also visited Esholt, which was one of the main locations for the show for 20 years, although we didn’t succumb to buying a Woolpack tea-towel…
Friday saw us heading in the opposite direction to Louise’s stamping ground of West London where she worked as a fine art restorer and then at the weekend, we headed West to the Welsh mining village of Cymer, where Betty was born before she moved to Porthcawl.
Someone was smiling on us, because we had smashing weather in all three locations and came back with some lovely shots…
Hope you all got to enjoy the sunshine too!
