With a strong reputation and client base (possibly assisted by her TV appearance with Nick Knowles on a restoration and refurbishment project), it soon became apparent that she needed bigger premises in order to cope with demand.

Film and TV - Shakespeare and Hathaway
Our portfolio and reputation as a film and TV location strengthened in November 2017 when the BBC returned to film a forthcoming episode of the new TV drama, based in Stratford, Shakespeare and Hathaway. Jo Joyner and Mark Benton take on the two title roles for the daytime show which plays on Shakespearean themes. Benton plays private investigator Frank Hathaway, with Joyner playing his rookie sidekick Lu Shakespeare. Jo commented that she loved working at Alscot and as it's only 20 minutes away from her home it was a win win situation for her.
