Life depicted in the television drama ‘Happy Valley’ is seldom characterized by what might be described as ‘happiness.’
Real-life discontent is now emerging in Hebden Bridge, the filming location of the award-winning series, following the return of cameras for the production of another television show.
Since the success of the gritty police drama starring Sarah Lancashire, the West Yorkshire market town has been the subject of significant attention.
However, Sally Wainwright’s new series, ‘Riot Women’—which portrays a group of middle-aged women forming a punk rock band in the town—is generating unease among local residents.
Local residents have expressed concern over the increase in alcohol-fueled stag and hen parties, attributed to the heightened popularity of Hebden Bridge.
