Danny Boyle raves about Cheddar Gorge on 28 Years Later shoot

Danny Boyle has described Cheddar Gorge as “extraordinary” after filming parts of his zombie apocalpyse flick 28 Years Later there.

The director added that he felt “privileged” to be shooting in Somerset for the film, which was released on Friday.

Actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who lives near Bruton in Somerset, stars alongside Jodie Comer, Ralph Fiennes and Alfie Williams in the film, which is set 28 years after the accidental release of a virus that caused the breakdown of society.

Mr Boyle said the gorge was “one of the most unique pieces of British landscape”.
