Two television shows were being filmed in Watford yesterday.

Film crews took over Parkside Drive, in Cassiobury, to stage a car crash as part of E4 comedy My Mad Fat Diary.

The road, near its junction with Cassiobury Drive, was closed last night to accommodate the production crew recording for the show's third series.

Watford was also used for My Mad Fat Diary, which follows a teenage girl with body issues, during its debut series two years ago.

Earlier, a film crew from BBC One’s The One Show was also in the town centre carrying out street interviews in the High Street.
