It is the new Netflix drama that has got the world gripped - thriller Stay Close has shot to the top of the most-watched charts.
The drama was filmed across the north west with an all-star cast including Richard Armitage, Cush Jumbo, James Nesbitt and Sarah Parish.

Of course, the show is all set in the fictional Ridgewood - so it's not supposed to be the real geography of the north west. Eagle-eyed viewers here in the north west have nevertheless enjoyed recognising many of the locations while laughing at the logistics.
⚫️ Didsbury to Blackpool - via Runcorn
Megan (Cush Jumbo) is seen driving from her leafy life in Didsbury to Blackpool, but she travels there via Runcorn...By our reckoning that would make an already ponderous 58-mile trek into a whopping 89 mile epic!

⚫️ Vipers nightclub beaming revellers from Formby to Manchester
While the exterior of the club will be familiar to many as the former Shorrocks Hill development in Formby, the interiors are the basement club of Impossible on Peter Street.

⚫️ Formby next to St Helen's AND Chorley
The woods outside Vipers were actually filmed in Chorley, 30 miles away.
Yet in the drama, those same woods are also right next to the epic Dream sculpture which is in St Helen's, 30 miles in the opposite direction.

⚫️ Blackpool to Ashton-Under-Lyne in ten seconds
Ray Levine (Richard Armitage) is seen looking wistful on Blackpool seafront right from the start of the drama, where he is based. Yet his photographic studio is a unit in Ashton-under-Lyne. Some 57 miles away…

⚫️ Formby to Tatton Park (spoilers below!)
We discovered in the final moments what happened to Carlton - he was in a car in the woods by Vipers (in Formby). That car was later seen pushed into a lake in Tatton Park, a whole county away in Cheshire...

However, it did leave the whole drama on something of a cliffhanger, with fans wondering if it could come back again for another series. Even with all of the crazy twists and turns, viewers are sure to love to see the cast and crew back to film here again in the north west 📽️
