FANS of the new series of a popular BBC drama filmed in the Bradford district need to play super sleuth to be in with a chance of attending its premiere.
Viewers can attend the Halifax premiere of Gentleman Jack which stars Suranne Jones as Yorkshire trailblazer Anne Lister.
To be one of the first to enter the random draw for tickets fans must solve a mystery code when it appears on the @BBCNorthPR Instagram page at 7am today under the hashtag #GentlemanJackIsBack. The code can be cracked using the same key that was used to decipher Anne Lister’s diaries in the 1800s.
Solve it and you can follow the clues to apply for tickets to a red carpet premiere event with the stars of the show on Tuesday, March 29 at Square Chapel in Halifax.
People can put their name in the Gentleman Jack ‘top’ hat for tickets when the draw goes live on the BBC Shows and Tours website on Tuesday, March 15, at noon.
Suranne Jones returns as regency landowner Anne Lister for the second series of Gentleman Jack set in Halifax during 1834.
Series creator, writer and executive producer Sally Wainwright will be in attendance at the red carpet event alongside Suranne Jones and other cast.
Following the screening of the first episode, guests can hear direct from Sally, Suranne and other cast in a Q&A.
The ticket ballot will close at 11.59pm on Monday, March 21 and you can apply for a maximum of two tickets. Tickets will be allocated via a random draw.
