Pulse producer Simon Heath has revealed that filming for the BBC Three pilot had to be stopped so that dead bodies could be moved around.

The Sun reports that the cast and crew initially believed that they were shooting the show in a disused morgue.

However, the filming at Calderdale Royal Hospital in West Yorkshire was reportedly interrupted so that staff could transfer corpses.

"It was surreal," Heath admitted. "One minute we were staging a fight, the next the porters wheeled another corpse in."

Pulse, which stars Claire Foy, is currently available to watch online and will air on BBC Three tonight at 9pm.
