According to the guy I listen to on Dee Radio driving in to work this week, there has been some filming going on in the Handbridge area of Chester and some 1980s era cars been seen parked there.
A bit more digging by the breakfast DJ came up with Anemone, a film that will star Daniel Day-Lewis and Sean Bean.
There have been no sightings of the much-married Sean Bean or the much-retired Daniel Day-Lewis. According to Wikipedia, Daniel's first retirement in 1997 was cobblers.
Anyway, the BBC are reporting today that those cars have been ticketed by traffic wardens.
The cars, were allegedly parked on double-yellow lines - none are visible in the photos so has another crime been committed in covering them over? Google Streetview does clearly show them:
It appears that the Council did not give any special permissions for the filming so the arrogance of the film team may have come in to play - or maybe this was a calculated risk and they are happy to pay the fines.
I am a bit more surprised that they think that in the 1980s, everybody drove Fords.
Or is it because the production company are called Focus Features?
