Where was The Night Caller on Channel 5 filmed?

The Night Caller, featuring Robert Glenister and Sean Pertwee, may be set against the backdrop of Liverpool, but the cameras weren't rolling in the Merseyside city.

Channel 5 is gearing up to captivate audiences with its latest offering, The Night Caller, a gripping thriller centred around a taxi driver's unsettling fixation with a radio DJ that unfolds under the cover of night.

Robert Glenister, whose acting chops have been showcased in hits like Sherwood, Spooks, and Hustle, steps into the shoes of Tony, a former teacher turned cab driver in his fifties. Once a man of respect, Tony now navigates a life marred by the loss of his job, self-assurance, and marriage.

As Tony drives through the nocturnal cityscape, he tunes into the musings of Lawrence, a late-night radio presenter played by Sean Pertwee, known for his roles in You and Gotham. What starts as casual listening spirals into an intense fixation when Tony decides to call into the show.

Channel 5 has teased The Night Caller as a "claustrophobic tale about the power of influence those with the loudest voice have over the most vulnerable people".

While the narrative places Tony amidst the hustle of Liverpool's night-time economy, the actual filming of The Night Caller for Channel 5 was carried out in Dublin. Director Diarmuid Goggins has shared insights on their efforts to ensure the transition appeared flawless.

He explained: "We shot the majority of the series in Ireland and then sent over a second unit to do a few days in Liverpool and get the backdrop of the city. So everything that looks at Robert in the cab was shot in Ireland, and everything that looks out of his window was shot in Liverpool. So, we spent three days in Liverpool, not celebrating the nightlife
