Remember the Poldark effect, when Cornwall was suddenly invaded by even more people than usual thanks to the popularity of the BBC series? Well, it's happening again in Looe due to the success of another BBC drama, Beyond Paradise, which is filmed in the town.
Looe may look perfect - and in many ways it is - but there's another side of the town that's not quite Beyond Paradise.
Like so many coastal towns in Cornwall, there are problems with housing, economic and social deprivation, the death of the fishing trade and even loneliness. Looe has its own unique problems too - there have been four landslides in the past five months, the coastal path by the town has a hole in it and, of course, Looe is infamous for its floods, which are the bane of local traders.
