If you fancy the chance to work alongside the likes of Brenda Blethyn and Kenny Doughty, now might be your chance as jobs have come up for grabs.

ITV has resumed filming for the twelfth series of Vera with fans recently spotting Blethyn, cast and crew out on Teesside.

Last week, a fan captured the moment Blethyn was spotted filming scenes in Hartlepool along with her iconic Land Rover Defender.

The show, which sees leading lady Blethyn play DCI Vera Stanhope, has been a huge hit over the years with fans as far as Australia tuning in.

So far, ITV has not confirmed when series 12 will air, although it has said filming for the next series will take place up until Autumn.

And now, an opportunity to work on the show as either a Graphic Designer or Trainee Floor Runner has just come up.

Posting on the NE Screen Crew Academy's Facebook page last week, the adverts for both jobs are still live.

The ad for the Graphic Designer role said: "Vera S12 is looking for a Graphic Designer to join their Art Department team.

"They are open to hear from Assistant Graphic Designers ready to step up. Ideally North East based applicants but there is a possibility to WFH (to be discussed)."

The start date is July 25, with the role expected to last around seven weeks. To apply for the role, email pg.booth@icloud.com.

Meanwhile, a Trainee Floor Runner position for six weeks is also being advertised, starting on July 25 for one week and then back on week starting August 8.

Those interested should contact catherine.kinson@itv.com and must be able to drive.
