Stay at Dyer’s Holiday Cottage Halifax and visit the filming locations of Riot Women on BBC tv

Sally Wainwright has pulled it off again, this time with a bold drama called ‘Riot Women’ about a group of middle aged ladies forming a rock band to enter a local school talent contest. Filmed in the area around Hebden Bridge, it offers spectacular views of the stunning Calderdale scenery which is easily accessible from Dyer’s Holiday Cottage Halifax by foot, car, bus, train or a combination. With many familiar faces from Sally’s previous productions such as ‘Happy Valley’, ‘Gentleman Jack’ and ‘Last Tango in Halifax’, ‘Riot Women’ is a lively, funny account of how menopausal women often feel ignored and unappreciated often to the point of feeling invisible.
