Default TV Series "Vera"

So there I was, having my teatime stroll along the prom, when I noticed a lot of activity outside one of our hotels. Tv vans, cameras & film crew scurrying about and............................................... .................................................. ........
Brenda Blethyn
Apparently shooting scenes for the tv series "Vera"
Had to ask a lady what it was all about as I've never heard of it.
So that's George Gently & this, must be something about the NE coast

At one time the programme was mainly set in Newcastle and Northumberland , it seems to be covering a bigger area now , it's even been as far south as Middlesbrough

Vera’s good

But the best tv police series in our area has to be Spender with Jimmy Nail.
