A major new ITV drama series starts tonight and we at Unitbase.co.uk are very excited about some of the locations on show. The show starring Keeley Hawes of Ashes to Ashes fame and Queer of Folk’s Aidan Gillen, are part of an elite police unit that is set up to combat identity related crime.
The main office location that was used for the filming was Thomas More Square, an office complex in Wapping, London. The production took over a whole floor of the building where they recreated their special unit police headquarters. The production required a modern, high spec office location with London City views and this is exactly what they got! We are really excited to see how the production utilised this great location, a location that has been used in many productions before, such as ’28 Weeks Later’ and many television commercials.
The production was on site for 2 months whereby the crew built the set into the fabric of the building. What must also be mentioned is the fact that the filming was able to be carried out while other companies were carrying out a normal day’s business within the same building! This is a fantastic achievement and here at Unitbase.co.uk we were really happy to be able to make this happen!
UK television and film production is on the up and we are really proud to be a facilitating part in it! The team at Unitbase.co.uk will be glued to their screens tonight as to make sure they don’t miss a scene. With great locations like Thomas More Square as part of our Land Securities portfolio, we know we will be involved in many productions to come.
