BBC One thriller Chloe filmed entirely in Bristol

Chloe, a new psychological thriller for BBC One and Amazon Studios, filmed entirely in Bristol and environs last year.
The six-part drama comes from Mam Tor Productions and is the first original TV series commission from writer Alice Seabright.
Erin Doherty stars as Becky in the tense thriller, alongside Billy Howle, Pippa Bennett-Warner, Jack Farthing, Poppy Gilbert, Lisa Palfrey, Brandon Micheal Hall, Alexander Elliot and Akshay Khanna.
The production team was based at the Bottle Yard Studios from spring last year; here sets were built for interiors including Becky”s flat and a Bristol gallery where key scenes take place. The Studios” green screen was also used.
During the 15-week shoot, Bristol Film Office assisted filming at a number of locations in the city including A Bond Warehouse near Cumberland Basin (which provided the setting for a nightclub), M Shed on Princes Wharf, The Arches industrial estate in St Philips and Picton Street in Montpelier.
Numerous other Bristol locations were also used, including the Bristol Marriot Royal Hotel on College Green, the exterior of St George”s Hall on Great George Street, Bristol Beacon, the Royal West Academy on Queen”s Road, The Forge in Colston Yard, Bar 44 in Clifton, Bristol”s harbourside, the Quay Street Diner and a private residence on Fernbank Road in Redland.
Further afield in the region, filming took place at locations including Ston Easton Country Park in Somerset, Brean Down near Burnham on Sea, the Penny Brohn National Centre in Pill, Uphill near Weston-super-Mare, Walton Bay and a private property in Abbots Leigh.
Joanna Crow, producer of Chloe, said: “Bristol is a city that carries Drama in its blood. The city is a theatre of opportunity with ready-made stages in its gorges, docks, colourful streets and vibrant harbourside, robustly supported by both the dynamic operation at The Bottle Yard Studios and the post facilities at The Farm. ‘Chloe” has an idiosyncratic yet distinctively Bristol/South-West look and sound, but it”s thrilling story of obsession and grief is universally relatable.”
Laura Aviles, senior Bristol film manager, added: “This is another important high end TV drama made and set in Bristol, with an intensely gripping, modern plot incorporating the timely theme of social media”s increasing prominence in our everyday lives.
“As is clear from the array of locations used in Bristol and the surrounding region, and the strong local crew-base that worked on the series, Mam Tor Productions found everything it needed on the doorstep of The Bottle Yard Studios, where it was able to base operations and build key interior sets. It was our pleasure to support the filming of Chloe in and around Bristol.”
