TV FILMING in Great Budworth will result in two weeks of road closures.

Mammoth Screen production crews record scenes towards a three-part series based on H.G. Wells’ novel ‘The War of the Worlds’ with a Victorian twist.

The drama will follow one man’s attempt to escape the invaders – but they are determined to destroy all human life as they attempt to conquer the earth.

Temporary restrictions will be imposed from April 3 until April 14 to allow a production company to film for a three-part, sci-fi drama series in the village.

High Street to Westage Lane (via Church Street) will be closed.

During the filming, parking will also be prohibited on Heath Lane and Budworth Lane.

Pedestrian access to premises situated on these roads will be maintained and businesses along the affected streets will remain open during this period.
