Fund unveiled to boost film sector

A fund that aims to boost film and television production in Scotland has helped to pump more than £60 million into the wider economy, ministers estimate.

The Scottish Government and Creative Scotland, through the National Lottery, have allocated £3.7 million to the Production Growth Fund (PGF) since October 2015.

New productions supported by the PGF include TV drama series The Victim, and Ordeal By Innocence, filmed on location in Inverclyde.
