Yorkshire premiere for film drama
The absence of one of its leading stars could not dull the excitement at the screening of a new BBC drama in Leeds, written by the city's own Kay Mellor, above.
While Billie Piper was unable to attend, a host of others attended the screening of A Passionate Woman, which also stars Royle Family actress Sue Johnston, and Alun Armstrong, at the Hyde Park Picture House, in Leeds. It will be shown on BBC1 later this year. The drama, an adaptation of Mellor's play which was a worldwide hit, focuses on a mother's affair in the 1950s and the consequences of that affair 30 years on.
The drama was filmed on location in West Yorkshire last year and is very much a personal journey for Kay Mellor, as it was inspired by her late mother Dinah.
