I imagine that they will be busily revising filming schedules in view of the monumentally unreliable weather that we have experienced during the past two weeks - since the heat and the sun and the blue skies are a significant backdrop to the whole story.

There were 2 ladies and a man in El Posito this week who said they were filming for a Welsh company.

Did they sound Welsh thought ? from experience I can reveal that film/TV production companies almost always give false information about what they are actually up to thus avioding any unwanted attention.

Yes the ladies were definitely Welsh, and hubby read in the paper that the film is all about Spain and in the Wesh language.

After looking unsuccessfully for the Mad Dogs villa in April we decided to try again this afternoon, as the weather had suddenly taken a turn for the worse! We set off to La Font with very ominous clouds in the sky We found the road that we thought the villa was in and drove slowly trying to peer up all the gated entrances to see if we could recognise anything. Suddenly ahead of us I noticed a lot of parked cars and a security guard standing outside the gates of a villa. We'd found it From the road you cant see the pool or villa but what we did see was loads of catering tents, caravans and various large film crew vehicles.

Sadly no sightings of The Boys' though

Default Philip Glenister sighting

I swear I spotted Philip Glenister in the Eroski at Pollensa yesterday picking up some wine but thought I was probably imagining it. But now I've read they are back here filming - you never know!!

Twitter - very interesting!

He says that series 2 airs in January and that "there is a very good chance [they] will do a third series in jan to be shown around sep 2012"

San Antonio anyone!
