Roads in Glasgow City Centre will be sealed off as filming gets under way for a new BBC thriller.

Joe Cole of Peaky Blinders fame and Alexandra Roach will lead the cast of the six-part series, Nightsleeper, which has been created by BAFTA-winning writer Nick Leather.

Produced by Euston Films the series will see passengers battling to save themselves during a sleeper train journey from Glasgow to London, in a show described as a modern twist on the runaway train genre.
