Strike Back to shoot in Thailand and Hungary

Filming on the fifth series of high-octane drama Strike Back starts in Thailand on Monday (27 January).

Shooting will take place mostly in the capital, Bangkok, and Krabi, a resort on the west coast of the southern part of the country.

Filming then continues in Thailand until the end of March, when the cast and crew move on to Hungary to shoot until the end of June; specific locations there have not yet been confirmed.

The 10 x 60 military drama comes from UK-based production shingle Left Bank Pictures and writer James Dormer. Based on the novel by ex-SAS soldier Chris Ryan, it centres on secret British Defence Intelligence service operatives as they undertake highly dangerous missions around the world.

The drama airs globally, showing in territories including Australia, Canada, France and Belgium.

Previous episodes of the series have been filmed on South African locations, with Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and Springbok among the locations used.

We have lots of information in our country guides for anyone planning to film in Thailand, Hungary or South Africa.
