When it comes to filmmaking, Liverpool is a chameleon. Over the past few decades it has transformed into Gotham City, Chicago, New York, London, Moscow, Croydon and even itself - as 1960s Liverpool in various movies about The Beatles.
It helps that Liverpool Film Office has a strong reputation for making things easy for producers - finding locations, smoothing the way with property owners and sorting permission for road closures. But its popularity is ultimately down to the city's wealth of architecture and the variety of backdrops Merseyside can provide to those looking to fake the French Riviera on Formby Beach or an Olympic stadium in Bebington.
