A highly anticipated is filming on location in Wales.
New series The Light , starring Sarah Lancashire, has been shooting scenes around Swansea in recent days, including near Brangwyn Hall.
The new Channel 4 drama is set in the fictional town of Glyngolau and is currently filming entirely on location in Wales.
It explores a forgotten community devastated by disaster.
An explosion on the construction site of a much-needed and sought-after regeneration project in this “left-behind” town claims the lives of many children who have broken into the building site to make mischief. As grief gives way to anger the community finds itself forced to confront difficult truths amid the search for justice.
BAFTA and RTS-winner Lancashire (Kiri, Happy Valley) plays Polly Bevan - the wife of the local politician who championed the project and the person to whom the community turns following the disaster.
Councillor Iwan Bevan, her husband, played by Mark Lewis Jones (National Treasure, Keeping Faith), loves his home town and is a respected figurehead for the community.
BAFTA-winner and Emmy-nominee Sidse Babett Knudsen (Borgen, Westworld) plays Harriet Paulsen, the executive at Kallbridge Developments which has overseen the project in Glyngolau.
On hearing the news of the disaster, Harriet immediately heads to the site but finds herself the focus of raw grief and anger. She’s tough with a ruthless streak but her desire for self-preservation and to protect the business she’s helped build comes into sharp conflict with her compulsion to do the right thing. Her Executive Assistant at Kallbridge is Tim, played by Nabhaan Rizwan (Informer, 1917). Tim is smart and eager, but his good sense may be clouded by his desire to protect Harriet at all costs.
The show is written by award-winning Jack Thorne and directed by Sandra Goldbacher. There'll be four episodes, each lasting 60 minutes.
It has already been spotted filming in Porth, Rhondda, Pontyclun and at Miskin Manor.
Another show that's been filmed in Wales is Keeping Faith, watch the series two trailer below:
