Bemused visitors to a small seaside town became movie extras - when a Bollywood film crew descended on their town.

Residents walking the decks of Saltburn Pier were thrust into the action as directors making a movie called 'Shaandaar' tried to set the scene on a typical day in Saltburn-By-The-Sea, North Yorkshire.

The Manchester-based production company caused a stir among passing locals as crowds gathered to get a glimpse of the film-making.

And some visitors were even drafted in as extras as the cameras started to roll for the romantic drama. 

Angela Sen, 57, was walking her dog along the sea-front in the North Yorkshire town when she was handed her first role in front of camera.

 
She said: 'I went to have a look at what was going on down at the pier and someone approached me and asked me if I could help out.

'I had to walk with my dog along the pier as the crew filmed the action.

'It will be something to look out for when the film is released, but I wouldn't say it was my 'big break' really.
