Watch: Eddie Marsan and Anne-Marie Duff seen in Sheffield’s Endcliffe Park for new BBC drama Reunion
Endcliffe Park has become the latest spot in Sheffield to host film crews for an upcoming BBC One drama.
Endcliffe Park Cafe closed early yesterday (Wednesday, July 31) as film crews took over the site for the new revenge thriller.
The BBC commissioned Sheffield-based Warp Films to produce Reunion, which has been written by Sheffield-born deaf writer William Mager.
From 12pm, film crews and actors descended on the park. Anne-Marie Duff, best known for playing Fiona Gallagher in Shameless, and Eddie Marsan, who has appeared in a string of Hollywood films, were watched by dozens of onlookers as filming for the four-part series continued.
The mini-series has been described by the BBC as an emotional thriller that follows Daniel Brennan, a deaf man, as he unfolds the truth behind the events that saw him sent to prison.
Also in the cast of the new drama are Matthew Gurney, Lara Peake, and Rose Ayling-Ellis.
Other areas of Sheffield have also been used in the filming, including Crookes Cemetery, Crookes; Marsh Lane, Crosspool; at houses on Redmires Road, Lodge Moor; Hell’s Kitchen Diner, on East Bank Road; and Beeton Road, Meersbrook.
