THE wait for the new ITV crime drama based on the novel by Ann Cleeves is nearly over.
While we wait for the show to be on our screens, let’s take a look at where the series was filmed.
Where is The Long Call filmed?
The Long Call was filmed in:
- Bristol
- North Devon coast
- Ilfracombe Harbour
Actor Martin Shaw said how much he loved filming in the south west- but the weather did pose a challenge at times.
“It’s absolutely beautiful. It just seeps into your souls.
“On one particular day for the baptism [scene], I was at one point up to my chest in the sea. The waves are coming backwards and forwards and knocking me off balance. It was cold, the weather was quite wild and we had a lot of takes because the weather kept changing.
“And I couldn’t get enough of it! I just wanted to get back in the water because it was just so primal and exciting. It’s a very beautiful place.”
When was The Long Call filmed?
Filming for the The Long Call began in April 2021.
The series is produced by ITV Studios label, Silverprint Pictures and co-produced with BriBox North America.
The series will also be directed by Lee Haven Jones, who directed Shetland, The Bay and episodes of Doctor Who, such as Revolution of the Daleks and Orphan 55.
