Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Do adverts count? Does Gary Lineker age?
midland_red Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Does music count? If so the Three Degrees cut a live LP at the old Baileys night club around 1977
Samilktray Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Jamie Oliver made a TV show about British food about 2 years ago, and he spent an episode in Leicester and Melton.
fox123 Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Come Dine With Me has also featured in Leicester a couple of times.
Webbo Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Gotta be honest, I've seen better examples of Parkour.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 that parkour film ahhahahsahsdaksdasdjkajsdkaljsdasklnadnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Unabomber Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Wasn't Harry Potter and the Goblet or whatever it's called filmed in Leicester? Bradgate park or summit.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 Gotta be honest, I've seen better examples of Parkour. I just typed in Leicester Film in Youtube and that caught my attention. Thought it worth posting. Can't believe the audacity of these lads hopping on and off the market stalls and calling it parkour, scandalous.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 2 August 2014 Posted 2 August 2014 that parkour film ahhahahsahsdaksdasdjkajsdkaljsdasklnadnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn The slo-mo of one of them hopping forwards no more than 3 feet on the ground and pushing himself up by his hands on to his feet a clear highlight.

Rocket-Ron Posted 3 August 2014 Posted 3 August 2014 There was a tv drama about a young Asian girl (1989?) that was set in and filmed in Leicester. No memory of what it is called. Was it called "shalom shama" or something like that? Did watch it but can only remember a scene outside of the Haymarket.
Buce Posted 4 August 2014 Posted 4 August 2014 Was it called "shalom shama" or something like that? Did watch it but can only remember a scene outside of the Haymarket. You've managed to jog my memory: it was called Shalom Salaam, and was set and filmed entirely in Leicester, mainly around Spinney Hill/Highfields, though I remember a fight scene in the market. http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0416422/

Grandad. Posted 4 August 2014 Posted 4 August 2014 Bernard's Watch did an episode at Loughborough train station.
Nick Posted 4 August 2014 Posted 4 August 2014 Robin Hood Prince of Thieves was partly made up at Bradgate park, you can clearly see 'Old John' in the back ground. Really, which scene?
pSinatra Posted 4 August 2014 Posted 4 August 2014 There's a drama series from the 80's called 'Connie' which had Stephanie Beacham in it. Not sure it was entirely filmed in Leicester, but it was about the hosiery trade & they did some filming in the dye house at Corahs. My Dad got a non-speaking part & you couldn't come round our house without my Dad putting the video on. My Dad was told to just carry on what he was doing while they filmed. You couldn't hear what was being said, but you see one of the actors come over & start telling my Dad off, pointing his finger in his face. My Dad's a bit fiery at the best of times & didn't have a clue what was going on. He said he was about ready to thump the twat. The actor was the guy in Raiders of the Lost Ark who sticks his hand in the fire to pick out the headpiece & scars his hand
