Screen Yorkshire has launched a plan to turn its part of northern England into an international film and TV hub capable of attracting the next “Game of Thrones.” The agency has opened a new Film Office, which will be the driver of its international push, and talks are underway about a new studio complex in the city of Leeds.
Through its content fund, Screen Yorkshire has already provided support to films and series including Idris Elba’s movie “Yardie” and BBC drama “Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.” The newly minted Film Office will work with any producers who want to set up shop, or base a production, in the Yorkshire and Humber region, irrespective of whether they are beneficiaries of the content fund.
“We are saying Screen Yorkshire is open for business, and it’s the international market that we are very keen to hit,” CEO Sally Joynson told Variety.

Exclusive: Raf Church Fenton to become 100,000 sq ft shooting facility.
UK funding body Screen Yorkshire, backers of hit series Peaky Blinders and upcoming film Dad’s Army, has struck a deal with property investors Makin Enterprises to convert the former Raf site in Church Fenton, Yorkshire, into a film and TV production facility.
‘Yorkshire Studios’ will see the 100,000 sq ft air base repurposed - depending on council approval - as a shoot facility comprising production and office space, garages, workshops, parking, roadways and runways.
The location, 16 miles from Leeds and 150 miles from London, is situated within 440 acres of clear vistas and comprises three aircraft hangars with energy throughout the site.
While the hangars have a multi-skin roof there is no studio specific soundproofing or lighting rig but the two largest hangars do have load-bearing cranage overhead.
The site, which is being touted as ready-to-use, is already attracting interest from industry.
