Glasgow makes £23m in movie business

GLASGOW'S draw as a film location has helped net the city more than £23 million in movie business.

New figures for 2012 show Glasgow remained a prime location for Hollywood producers, with the revenue up 10% on the year before.

The rise in 2012 comes despite the lack of big names arriving in the city last year compared to 2011, when Brad Pitt, Tom Hanks and Halle Berry came to town to shoot scenes for leading motion pictures.
