Streets in central Bradford have been transformed to look like 1990s Moscow as filming takes place for the hit Netflix show The Crown.

Cast and crew are currently filming the fifth series of the multi-award winning show, which is due to air at the end of the year.

Several streets near Forster Square have been closed today as a crew set to work making the area look like the Russian capital ahead of filming tomorrow.

Parts of Canal Road, Valley Road and Holdsworth Street are closed today and tomorrow.

Buildings were given Russian signs and street signs were replaced with Russian name plates. 

Other props such as posters, a phone box and a vintage van can be seen in place ready for filming.

The series will focus on the early-to-mid 1990s, during which time Diana, as well as the Queen and Prince Philip, paid visits to Moscow.

Props were stolen from the set of The Crown during filming last week near Doncaster. Items worth a reported £150,000 were taken from three vehicles on the set.
