A FILM crew is currently working at Whitehaven's harbour.
The teams, understood to be from ITV, has taken over the harbour's car park today and is expected to also return tomorrow.
A source has told the Whitehaven News actors from Coronation Street, Eastenders and Doctor Who are working on a six-part drama called The Bay, which is set in Morecambe but is being film in the West Cumbrian town.
The film crew has been described as "sizeable" and equipment including lighting rigs have been installed next to the harbour.
The drama has been said to evolve around two fell walkers, but one of them is found washed up on a beach, sparking an investigation.
The Whitehaven News has contacted the Whitehaven Harbour Commissioners for comment.
