Penarth Pier featured in the 2018 Amazon Prime movie Say My Name, Nub News has just found out.

Resident Doug Deans says he was surprised to see the iconic landmark form the backdrop to the romantic comedy's climax.

Say My Name, directed by Jay Stern, tells the story of a one-night stand being interrupted by a robbery and the couple's ensuing struggle to reclaim their stolen goods.

The film is set on a fictional Welsh island, with our beloved pier stepping up as a ferry port.

It was filmed in 2017 and released the following year, when scenes in the 2020 movie Six Minutes to Midnight, featuring Judi Dench and Eddie Izzard, were also filmed on the Esplanade.

Production companies frequently use the Vale of Glamorgan as a filming location, as the following database shows:
