Cameras were rolling in one of the most historic parts of Bolton town centre as filming continued for a commercial.
Filming got underway yesterday on Knowsley Street, with a vacant shop being turned into a bakery for a day.
Crews were on Churchgate this morning filming outside local businesses and inside one town centre shop as production activity returned to the area.
Despite the commercial being used to promote the brand, everyone was staying tight-lipped about what was being filmed.
Although it is believed to be a bank.
Knowsley Street was turned into a temporary set complete with a fictional bakery known as "The Corner Bakery".
That production was also understood to be for a commercial, with reports from the scene suggesting it was being filmed for a bank advertisement.

Today's activity further highlights Bolton's growing appeal as a filming destination, with cameras becoming an increasingly familiar sight across the borough.
In recent years, Bolton has welcomed a string of television dramas, films, streaming productions and advertising campaigns, helping to cement its reputation as the "Hollywood of the North".
Last month, crews filming Netflix's adaptation of Harlan Coben's The Woods were spotted in Smithills Estate and Heaton, while earlier this year McVitie's used Le Mans Crescent as the backdrop for a Jaffa Cakes campaign.
Bolton Council has previously revealed that film and television productions have generated millions of pounds for the local economy, with the town's mix of historic buildings, urban streetscapes and countryside proving attractive to location scouts.
Although details of the latest commercial remain under wraps, residents are once again seeing Bolton take centre stage as another production sets up in the heart of the town.
