Sisters lift the lid on getting TV shows and Hollywood films to Liverpool

Two sisters have shared how they get big TV shows and Hollywood films to come to Liverpool.

Faye Newton, 39, and Claire Newton, 44, own Liverpool Locations - a company which finds and manages locations in the city for feature films, TV dramas and adverts. The sisters, from south Liverpool, have an impressive portfolio including hit BBC show Peaky Blinders, ITV's The Ipcress File and films such as Sherlock Holmes and Kingsman: The Golden Circle, to name a few.

Claire got into the industry first while studying media at university and got work experience where she built up contacts. The 44-year-old's first job was Liverpool One, a police drama set in the city starring Samantha Janus and Mark Womack.
