The co-writer of Welsh cult movie Twin Town, Paul Durden, has died, his family have announced. He died "suddenly" in the early hours of Tuesday morning, September 6, according to loved ones in heartfelt social media posts.
Mr Durden wrote the Swansea-set 1997 black comedy film alongside Welsh director Kevin Allen. Dubbed the most commercially successful Welsh film ever made, it found enormous success far and wide - along with some controversy.
The movie was filmed in Swansea and Port Talbot and followed the story of brothers Julian and Jeremy who enjoyed spending their time on drugs and joyriding. Also an actor, Mr Durden appeared in the movie himself and played a taxi driver. You can get more Swansea news and other story updates straight to your inbox by subscribing to our newsletters here.
