Actor James Norton said he “didn’t want to leave” Cornwall after the filming of TV drama Playing Nice ended.
He credited the community around Newquay for not only welcoming the crew so warmly but for helping him learn a Cornish accent for the drama’s lead character.
Cornish filming locations for the series included Watergate Bay, Mevagissey, the Jubilee Pool in Penzance, Minions, Newlyn East and stretches of the north Cornwall coast.
Norton, a Yorkshireman, said he had found the county to be “a jewel, it’s the most beautiful part of the whole country”.
