Lynn Saunders, head of Liverpool Film Office said the impact was being felt across all five boroughs of the Liverpool city region.

“Every single borough has seen an increase in production, and there are hubs springing up everywhere,” she said.

“The locations are stunning, they’re diverse and the communities really welcome filmmakers which is why we have so much filming taking place here.

“Heath in Halton, Alexandra Business Park in St. Helens, Pensby High School in the Wirral, they’ve all seen repeat production come back time and time again.

“We have a commitment to economic regeneration, skills development, community engagement, and sustainable growth, with plans to further elevate Liverpool’s role in the UK’s screen industry,” she said.
