This time, however, it wasn’t for real but part of a scene for Scots actor Ewan McGregor’s latest big screen blockbuster, which is being shot in the city.

Survivors seemed to be battling for last scraps of food with a wheelie bin overturned and debris strewn across Blythswood Street.

Fists were drawn as two actors fought one another on the ground.

It drew a few onlookers as the camera crew captured the latest scenes for the film The Last Word.

Police officers were brought in to help with traffic flow as city centre streets were affected by the filming yesterday morning.

But it left a few early-morning motorists somewhat irate, and horns were sounded when they were held up as a camera crew on a trailer headed along Bothwell Street.

Officers were trying to keep the streets clear while a car sped along.

McGregor and his co-star, former Bond girl Eva Green, have been filming the “apocalyptic love story”, which is due for cinema release next year.

The movie reunites McGregor, 38, with Young Adam director David Mackenzie and tells the story of a couple falling in love as the world is gripped by a pandemic.

Casino Royale star Green, 29, stood by wearing a protective mask and was also filmed driving a Volkswagen through city streets.
