I guess Michelle Keegan has a massive sideline in fashion and clothes, so it follows. And would be fine if that was all, but it tends to border on the sexist and speculative. But as we've said, its the only news we're getting on filming so... #conflicteddomino

There has been a distinct lack of DaMo in the latest filming news, But he was announced as main cast right from the get go so I'm not reading anything into that, and fully expect him front and centre in every ep of this new drama!

It looks like filming is back in Bacup - according to the Manchester Evening News "locations around the town have also been filmed, including near the former police station, on Bank Street, and also near Broadclough Mill, on Burnley Road." Wonder if there are any DaMo fans out there who live in the area?

I only hope that Damien's accent rubs off on Joe's Preacher vampire - Ruth Negga's accent has failed to. I love his character, he's perfect for the role but his Irish accent makes me cringe.
It's just good to see Damien having fun!

No, domino, I was actually thinking about his normal voice. I thought, you know, they might chat in between takes 😁.
I'm expecting a Mancunian accent, too (we know Damien is good at accents) but he was supposed to have been friends with Lulu (on Crashing) from childhood and still had his Irish accent.
I was listening to the a sports programme on the radio this afternoon (my son-in-law was taking me shopping, he always has sport on the car radio) and they had an interview with one of the Newcastle United players, I think he is from Czechoslovakia, and he has the most amazing accent - a real mix of Geordie and his home country. It was really odd but nice. He sounded 'proper Geordie' with some words in his sentences. He said he learned English from his team mates. So Irish with a Manc twang could be on the cards . . .

Rumour has it that filming for block 1 has completed, with block 2 filming beginning in November.

This explains why Damien is able to squeeze in a performance with WordTheatre on 25 October!

Damien's former BH director Daniel O'Hara was the block 1 director, Jon Wright block 2 - if it's the same Jon Wright, he also directed on 'Our Girl' (with Michelle K).

I remember Joe Gilgun as Eli Dingle in Emmerdale, Dingleannie. He got into all sorts of trouble with the original Priya Sharma.
I must try to remember he's all grown up now and is Joseph not Joe! Still catches me out every time I see the words 'Joseph Gilgun' on Preacher!

Nah Ellie, he's still Joe - at least that's how he is named on the Brassic scripts! (see my last post.)

Dingleannie, Oh how wonderful you only discovered Being Human a few months ago! Damien's Hal is utterly captivating and his accent is impeccable right? Such a great take on a pompous english accent!

I remember JG from Misfits, his natural accent methinks?

Ooh la la, now that is an attention grabbing headline!

Michelle Keegan can’t keep a straight face as Brassic co-star flashes himself on set

 

 

 

 

I wouldn't believe anyone who said they resisted the urge Ellie!

It must be hard work but great fun on this set!

There are lots of Brassic filming photos on Shutterstock, for press/editorial use, including ones we have already seen. No new ones of Damien, but great to see his co-stars and that Dominic West has joined the cast! 

Damien is posting filth on Instagram again!

His latest instagram Story (self destructs after 24 hours)

 

This is 'concrete' evidence that he is still filming for Brassic...

and this image is now 'cemented' in my mind... ()

 

Wonder what they are filming?!?

There is no air date yet Ann, just that it will be airing in 2019. it would have to be a very first post production for it to be the beginning of the year, so spring or later probably.

Just me, or is anyone else curious about that Instagram photo Damien shared?

It looks like cement on his hands, and there is that concrete floor... and reading this part of the official synopsis again:

"These lads have dealt, scammed, bribed and conned their way through adolescence, but now, on the brink of adulthood, their dealing and stealing is catching up with them and a whole load of trouble is heading their way. Like a carefully stacked tower of cards, what happens if one of them is knocked down or, worse, removed from the pack entirely?"

I wonder just what they've buried under that concrete!?!

Ha yes! Over 20 years ago and still one of the most chilling tv storylines ever! the synopsis doesn't really suggest the gang are full on criminals.. or murderers! but I must admit the body buried under the concrete thought did flash through my mind, maybe Brookside is to blame! But also there are a number of things that could be stashed and hidden that way... or maybe building is just Dylan's day job!

Damien looks super young for his age, and has played lots of characters in their twenties... besides we all know that the male of the species reach adulthood far later than the legal age.. *ducks*
