FILMING for a new Netflix series is taking place today at Bradford’s most iconic mill.
Film crews set up at Lister Mills in Manningham for the Netflix drama Bodies.
A large crane and a number of trucks with film equipment have been spotted near the mill today.
Roads have also been closed off and drivers diverted away from the film location.
The eight-part series Bodies will follow four different eras of London as the same murder is investigated.
A letter sent to residents of Lister Mills says the series will cover four time periods - 1890s, 1940s, 2023 and 2053.
It adds: “The series is set in London and we’re filming at Lister Mills which will act as one of our 2053 filming locations.
“Over the past few months we have been filming in Bradford and all over Yorkshire.”
The scenes will be filmed at the far end of the Lister Mills site, on the Beamsley Road side of the mill complex and crews will be “utilising the old remnants of the silk factory to form parts of our 2053 world”.
The filming is taking place today between 2pm and 2.30am.
The letter said: “The majority of our scenes require night, therefore we would like to film until 2am.
“We will do our utmost to keep any noise to an absolute minimum, we will be off site by 3am.”
Beamsley Road will be closed so lighting cranes can be put up safely to light the scenes being shot.
The closure will be between 11am today and 3am tomorrow. Another lighting crane is situated within the old site of Lister Mills, near the chimney.
The letter adds: “Please be reassured, our entire crew fully understand and appreciate we are coming to a residential area to film.
“We will continue to respect your local area and do the upmost to ensure your day-to-day remains as unaffected as possible.
“We appreciate that we are very privileged to film in Bradford and we do not take for granted the support we are shown from residents, for which we are hugely grateful.”
It is understood filming for the series has also taken place in Little Germany.
