It’s the series that has taken the nation by storm and now, only two episodes remain of BBC’s Happy Valley. Tommy Lee Royce actor James Norton has revealed that his own parents feature in the show.
Chatting to the BBC, Norton, 37, explained how he’d kept show secrets close to his chest despite working with his parents, who were extras. "My dad is the worst holder of any secret, so I fiercely kept it away from him, even though they were on set as extras,” he said, “They come on as extras occasionally and they came to Hebden Bridge with their dog, which was fun. But no, I've kept it pretty close to my chest.”
He added: "Also, I think no-one really wants to know. I've rarely found someone who knows and loves the show, who is keen to hear what happens." The fourth episode of the series concluded with Norton’s character making a dramatic escape from prison. You can read more about these tense scenes here.
