Eye.<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"im-image-caption\"> <i>ITV<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Lusi discussed a scene in the airport in which Nolan wriggles out of Hana\u2019s grasp and sprints to the departure lounge to spread the word of his arrest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThere were about 150 supporting artists around Richard and everyone else was a real passenger waiting for a flight,\u201d she said. \u201cWe had a sign up saying we were filming, but if they were anything like me when I\u2019m travelling, they might have had noise cancelling headphones and their head in a book. Then they would have suddenly seen Richard yelling like a crazy guy and people dressed as armed police swooping in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI would have probably wet myself, but there were people applauding after the takes. It was like being part of a violent flashmob.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Armitage described it as \u201c<span class=\"s1\">quite a big ordeal\u201d and one that felt comparable to his time on Spooks, \u201cwhere they didn\u2019t have massive budgets, but they would set up a long lens and dive into very public places\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt was like live theatre but for people that haven\u2019t consciously bought a ticket,\u201d he said. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u201c<\/span><span class=\"s1\">We rehearsed what we were going to do in a different corner of the airport, but we only had half an hour\u2019s notice before we could shoot, and I knew we only really had one or two chances to get it right.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWhen I watched it back weeks later, my heart was still thumping because I just remembered that feeling beforehand, knowing that I couldn\u2019t screw this up and something could go wrong. It was nail-biting.\u201d<\/span><\/p> <p>And despite China playing a key role in the drama, filming solely took place in and around London.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s always nice to travel, but actually it wasn\u2019t really necessary for this shoot,\u201d added Armitage. \u201cThe world they created for Beijing was pretty amazing. I walked onto that set, and it was a \u2018wow\u2019 moment. I really felt like I was down a back street in Wangfujing, it was fantastic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was more disappointed we weren\u2019t up in the air in the aeroplane, but that would have been a six-week flight. I still feel like we should have got some air miles from somewhere for the amount of time we spent in that business class cabin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Red Eye airs on ITV1 and ITVX from Sunday 21st April 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Check out more of our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/\">Drama<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/\">Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to find out what\u2019s on.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>For more from the biggest stars in TV, listen to\u00a0<a id=\"OWA71a5a05f-6651-b0f3-aeda-3d3d09b909b1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/audio\/podcasts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"1\">The Radio Times Podcast<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> The cast and crew tell all. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":49981,"template":"","categories":[1,5],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed.jpg",8762,5841,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed.jpg",150,100,false],"medium":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed-768x512.jpg",768,512,true],"large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed-1024x683.jpg",800,534,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed.jpg",1536,1024,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/04\/red-eye-location-guide-where-was-the-itv-thriller-filmed.jpg",2048,1365,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"importmanagerhub@sprylab.com","author_link":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/author\/importmanagerhubsprylab-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The cast and crew tell all.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed\/49980"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/rss_feed"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49980"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=49980"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
