Beach closed: Scarborough taken over for crime show filming
Filming for a new Australian crime drama, produced by Warner Bros International, will hit the iconic beach on Monday.
Traffic and pedestrian control will be in place from 7.00am – 6.45pm along The Esplanade, the Scarborough Amphitheatre and surrounding footpaths.
The upcoming series, which has only been given the working title LAM, is centred around the intense psychological toll of life on the run.
With the show's crime genre, it is little surprise that council warnings have been put in place alerting locals that actors and vehicles will be donned in WA Police attire.
'All action that takes place while filming is fictional and at no risk to the public,' the City of Stirling wrote in their statement.

The filming will not restrict access to any businesses or residential properties in the Scarborough area.
This will be conducted by a traffic management company approved by the City of Stirling.
Footpaths in the area will remain open to the public, however pedestrians may be asked to wait for a few minutes if filming is ongoing.
An additional two days of filming will also occur at a private property in the Stirling area later in the week, with essential equipment vehicles to be parked along the Esplanade.
The City of Stirling says the private property filming will have no effect on pedestrian and vehicular access in the area.
This is not the crime show's first time filming in Perth - the town of Bassendean issued a similar warning to residents after the show spent Thursday morning taping on Old Perth Road.
