All 'Appenin Up North!


Yorkshire seems to be the epicentre of TV series and blockbuster films at the moment. With the magnificent success of The Kings Speech, some of which was filmed in the fine city of Leeds, of which we attended the fantastic premier at Leeds Town Hall, thanks to Leeds Film Festival; and the upcoming series of Eternal Law and DCI Banks it looks like Yorkshire is on a role!

Eternal Law is a legal drama, based in the Medieval city of York, brought to us by Kudos Films. It is about two lawyers who are actually angels and their lives in a big law firm in the city of York. Filming starts in February 2011.

DCI Banks, police drama will also be returning to our screens, thanks to Left Bank Pictures all set in Leeds, in particular near the River Aire. Filming starts in March 2011.

What do you think to the current surge of filming in Yorkshire?

VTR=Green Room?







A big welcome and thanks to the great voices we have had recording voice overs recently with Spen, for the likes of DFS Sofas and TMD. We have had our good friend John Thompson (Cold Feet, Coronation Street) who is the the voice over for DFS, James Thornton (Emmerdale's John Barton) who regularly pops in to do voice overs for numerous clients.
We also welcomed some new voice artists, including, Jo Hartly (This Is England actress) and Jenna Louise Coleman (Ex Emmerdale actress) and Jo Mitchell who popped in for some voice over recording just the other day!
Audio once again is nice and busy so far in 2011, due to our unrivalled skills in audio, so if you need anything audio from sound effects to sound design, tracking laying, to voice over recording call us on 0113 261 5858 and ask for Spen.
