Michelle Keegan said: “I am thrilled to be back in Manchester for the screening. I come from Manchester and obviously we filmed a lot of the series here so it’s really important to me that we can give people in Manchester an exclusive opportunity to see the first episode before the rest of the country. The reaction from fans on the red carpet was over-whelming, I hope everyone enjoys the new series when it starts on Wednesday.”

Also in attendance at the North West premiere were Chris Hawkins from 主播大秀 Radio 6 Music and CBeebies presenter Ben Cajee; as well as other members of the cast of Our Girl – Michael James, Linzey Cocker and Molly Wright.

An audience of members of the public, specially invited guests and cast and crew were treated to a sneak preview of the first episode of the five-part series. The screening was hosted by Adrian Mills, General Manager at 主播大秀 North and was attended by nearly 200 people.

Adrian Mills said: “We have a clear commitment to make a wide variety of programmes across the North of England and Our Girl is an excellent example of the 主播大秀 delivering on that promise. We have seen some very successful dramas made in the north this year including Happy ValleyThe A Word and In The Club and it’s fantastic to see such a range of powerful dramas on our screens. I’ve no doubt that Our Girl will prove to be just as popular with audiences in the north and across the country.”
