Contextual Study: Weybourne Beach - Production Location


Solved: The 23 year mystery of man’s body found on Weybourne beach
     
    For more than two decades a grave with no name has stood in a north Norfolk churchyard. Despite a six-month police investigation, the man’s body could not be identified - leaving villagers to gather for a poignant funeral at Weybourne cemetery in April 1990.
    But now - thanks to modern detective work - the mystery of the body washed up on Weybourne beach in 1989 has been solved.
   Police can now reveal that it is Michael Sutherland, 34, of Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire, who was found 23 years ago on October 9 by local fishermen.

    The fact that there was a body found at our primary location of Weybourne Beach in North Norfolk helps to add depth, dimension and meaning to our use of this location. It does this by adding a fairly eerie and foreboding feel as it strengthens the idea that something bad could happen to the victim Sam in our narrative whilst being followed at this location.
