“It’s not the end yet but i didn’t want to miss a moment to say thank you as I’m sitting here reflecting on all we’ve gotten to experience thanks to you. i will never forget my time her.”

Parts of Glasgow have been transformed while filming has taken place, including city centre locations and disused railway tunnels.

However, the experience has not been a positive one for all. An MSP recently highlighted some issues caused by the shooting.
