Falkirk to feature on TV quiz show hosted by Vernon Kay and Traitors' Paul Gorton
Falkirk is to have a starring role in an episode of a new television quiz show next week.
The town will feature on Wednesday's episode of BBC Two's Do You Know Your Place?
The quiz show, hosted by Vernon Kay, sees Traitors star Paul Gorton visit towns and cities across the UK.
While there, he sets challenges, shares surprising local stories and sends tricky questions for the celebrity contestants back in the studio.
Paul was spotted in Falkirk filming for the series last October.
The team at Falkirk Delivers assisted the film crew during their visit.
Elaine Grant, BID manager, said: “We were really pleased that Falkirk was chosen to be featured on Know Your Place, with filming taking place in the town centre.
"Falkirk Delivers was happy to assist the production team on the day to help ensure everything ran smoothly.
"It’s really positive to see Falkirk and the surrounding area showcased on national television.
"Opportunities like this help highlight what Falkirk town centre and the wider area have to offer, from our independent businesses to our history and local attractions.
"With more than one TV programme choosing to film here recently, it shows there is growing interest in Falkirk as a destination.
”Celebrity players in the Falkirk episode are Nitin Ganatra, the Rev Kate Bottley and Alex Gray, better known as Apollo from Gladiators.
The episode airs on BBC Two at 6.30pm on Wednesday, March 4 and will be available on BBC iPlayer.
