(soft music) (seagulls cawing) - We do get to travel around quite a lot 'cause both following suspects, you go to all different parts of the country.
I think he got to go to Norfolk - I went to Norfolk.
- and stand on a really windy beach.
- (laughing) Yeah.
- Every series, we have lots of locations.
That's for a number of reasons.
One, I wanna show off our country and of course, in credibility terms, these people have scattered and wherever they started out, they're no longer there.
I'm limited by how far I can credibly expect a police force to travel, 'cause that's a practical and mechanical consideration for when you're writing the scripts, you know, you want your characters to be able to get back home at night, so maybe two and a half, three hours away is kind of my radius.
My next consideration is what part of the country haven't we looked at and it would be nice to go into another community.
And then the third and most important consideration is where would I like to stay in a hotel for a couple of nights.
- I know for fact that Chris Lang basically, he's admitted, that he writes into the script places he's been on holiday and then puts them in the script and he can return to them.
(laughing) - Is that what he said?
- That's what he told me.
- So what, he hasn't holidayed in Jamaica - No.
or, you know, the Caribbean?
- That's what I said to him.
- Maybe-- - Gold Coast or something, I mean, - Maybe he was - Zanzibar?
- abroad one year, in New York, maybe.
It just adds to the realism because cases that happened years and years ago, people have disappeared to different parts of the country.
