Other Wales based locations include the Haydn Ellis Building on Cardiff’s Maindy Road, which is part of the city’s university, Parkgate Hotel, and the seaside town of Penarth.

It wouldn’t be the financial district of London without some appearance from the city for filming. Locations such as Southwark Bridge were captured for exterior shots. Bristol was also featured in the latest season for its restaurant Brown’s and a private residence. Juxtaposing the concrete jungle aesthetic of the series, Mallorca was visited for filming one of the tense scenes between Yasmin and her father while situated on a luxury yacht.

Since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha'la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Sarah Goldberg).
