TV CREWS were seen setting up ahead of filming that is set to take place in Glasgow. 

We previously reported that scenes from the second series of TV drama Crime are due to be shot in the city. 

The show, which is based on an Irvine Welsh book, was partly filmed in Wyndford last year and is also due to begin shooting at Scotland's newest film studio in Stepps.

It stars Dougray Scott (Mission: Impossible 2, Batwoman, The Woman in White) as Detective Inspector Ray Lennox, who is investigating the disappearance of a schoolgirl while battling his own personal demons.

Earlier this year, we reported that creators of the drama were looking for Glasgow tenements ahead of season two's filming.

Some residents in Dennistoun received a letter from the production's location manager telling them they are looking for properties "such as yours".

The letter stated those who allow their home to be used will be paid a location fee.
