Manchester city centre street turned into film set for new ITV drama

Eagle-eyed Mancs have spotted film crews working on a busy city centre street.

The set was spied on Ducie Street, near Piccadilly Station, where large lights and actors in 'hen party' costumes were seen filming a scene near the popular Ducie Street Warehouse.

The Manchester Evening News understands that crews are filming for a new ITV comedic-drama called Significant Other , starring Katherine Parkinson and Youssef Kerkour.

According to the ITV website, Significant Other will follow two lonely neighbours who embark on a 'hesitant, obstacle-filled relationship' after drastic life events bring them together.

"As this strange love story unfolds with wryly observed wit and warmth, could these deeply flawed individuals – both at a time in their lives when change is difficult and rarely expected – influence each other for the better?," the website reads.

The series is set to be made up of six 30 minute episodes, and is adapted from yes Studios’ award-winning Israeli series of the same name. It is set to be released next year.

Ducie Street remains open to the general public.
