Andrew's top tips

  • "Speak to the production company. Don’t be scared of them - get on the phone to them and email them."
  • "Research other screen tourism businesses globally. See what they are doing well and what you can learn from them for your own business."
  • "Know the show, know it well, and particularly know where the filming locations are."
