According to BBC News, a member of the crew for Netflix series Dept Q has died after being seriously injured at FirstStage studio in Leith, Edinburgh.
Emergency crews were called to the studio at about 15:00 on Thursday. The man was pronounced dead a short time later. Police Scotland said the death was not being treated as suspicious, while inquiries into the circumstances continue.
Left Bank Pictures, which is involved in making Dept Q, said it was “deeply shocked and saddened by the tragic death of a member of our Dept Q crew”. The company said its thoughts were with the man’s family, friends and colleagues and that support was being offered to those affected.
The Health and Safety Executive said it was aware of the incident. FirstStage, known as the “big blue shed”, opened in a former warehouse unit in Leith in 2020 and has five sound stages and production office space.
