A FLAGSHIP period drama filmed in Barnsley will be screened on ITV in January.
Part of a farmer’s field in Wortley was transformed to create the shanty town of Jericho, which stars Call the Midwife's Jessica Raine, Mark Addy of Atlantis and Full Monty fame, Clarke Peters of The Wire and Hans Matheson from The Tudors.
The eight part series tells the story of a community that will 'live, thrive and die' in the shadow of the viaduct they've been brought together to build.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
