Police and protesters were spotted in Manchester city centre on Thursday afternoon (November 24) for the filming of Sky drama COBRA.
Crowds of protesters holding placards and police cars were pictured on set, at the back of The Midland Hotel outside the old G-MEX on Deansgate. The explosive series follows the UK's leading politicians as they're faced with catastrophes threatening the country - and the third season sees an unexpected environmental disaster unfold.
COBRA stars Robert Carlyle as Prime Minister Robert Sutherland and Victoria Hamilton as Chief of Staff Anna Marshall. Joining the cast for season three is sitcom star Jane Horrocks, who plays Defence Secretary Victoria Dalton.
