Hollyood hills are in Yorkshire

Well not exactly but a lot of TV dramas and films are being filmed in Yorkshire,of late,which is good for the economy! London is apparently too expensive for some productions.
2014 has seen Get Santa,Remember Me, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell and most recently Dad's Army have been filmed in the county.
Here are soem shots from a few of those productions.

From There to Here

BBC were in Manchester last week filming for a new 3 part drama based on the IRA bomb that caused destruction in the city in 1996.Filming in the Northern Quarter area,place where most films and dramas are made in the City. Realistic damage complete with ash floating in the air ,fire and rubble,being there it was very realistic.
Cast were Philip Glenister and Liz White from Life on Mars plus Bernard Hill and Steven Mackintosh.

Seasons

Bit late with update, topic of this post is the weather.March was a scorcher and I had pictures published,sunshine brings out the best in people and makes for good pictures,especially as girls wear less clothes.Tabloids love pictures of pretty girls.I found some students in Leeds having a break in  a local park.

This was taken at a student area in Manchester this time,a girl enjoying a book amongst the daffodils.I used a long lens to compress foreground.

 Major contrast to the weather in April as Snow arrived!! A plan to travel to Manchester Pennines to photograph scenes were scuppered when wagons stuck in snow at Saddleworth caused 40 mile tailbacks,I drove to a nearby motorway bridge and got this shot of vehicles going nowhere.
