Quite interesting to see the street outside Gridparts offices in Ashton under lyne being transformed into 1960's London for the filming of a new 4 part mini series for television.As the BBC puts it, "Ridley Road is a thriller set against the backdrop of a swinging sixties London we haven’t seen: an East End world where far right fascism is on the rise. When Vivien Epstein follows her lover into danger and he is caught between life and death, Vivien finds herself going undercover with the fascists, not only for him but for the sake of her country." For me, an opportunity to Offord a behind the scenes view of the filming
