Was Cold Feet in Manchester? I loved that show. It was shown on WTN in Canada and apparently we'll get the last season next year. I can't wait!

Yes, Cold Feet is filmed in Manchester. And yes, it is a great show, probably one of the best shows we've ever made. The last season is a cracker too.

Hyacinth is supposed to live in the West Midlands - in last night's episode, she aspired to be the social queen of her region.
