A successful architect becomes involved with a thief, only to be attracted to his mother
The main building project in this crime drama is cleverly interwoven with the actual construction of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link at St Pancras, with the production company making extensive use of the construction site of High Speed 1 and the redevelopment of the station in certain scenes. Class 373 ‘Eurostar’ sets can be espied in the background of several of these shots and King’s Cross station also appears in some scenes, with GNER Mk4 sets present. In addition, there is a good shot of a Thameslink Class 319 EMU crossing a large girder bridge and a brief glimpse of Class 455 EMUs on Hungerford Bridge.
