LeedsAn adaptation of Si Spencer’s 2015 graphic novel Bodies, starts filming in Leeds today, 16 May, for Netflix.

Together, the four find themselves investigating the same conspiracy spanning 150 years.

Netflix is as busy as ever with original drama commissions in the UK – currently the streamer has a tranche of shows in pre-production or shooting, including S3 of Bridgerton, the behemoth that is The Crown (S6), Sex Education S4, Kaos and the third series of The Witcher, another flagship returner for the SVoD giant.
