There&apos;s rarely been a more anticipated TV show set in Northern Ireland.
Fans of The Fall are gearing up for more horrors with the return of thriller killer Paul Spector to the small screen alongside his nemesis Detective Superintendent Stella Gibson.
And now after weeks of filming in the wind and rain, a closed school, dark streets, derelict buildings and even a salt mine, Spector, played by Holywood&apos;s Jamie Dornan, and Gibson by Gillian Anderson, are almost ready to be launched into the public psyche and sitting rooms.
Series one was good, two even better and now series three due to be screened in March, is expected to be better still.
Of course it all costs money ... but with a writer and director like Alan Cubitt, there&apos;s little chance of a flop.
And now Belfast Live can reveal that the huge cost of the programme that has attracted such a following.
The average cost of each episode is an incredible £1MILLION.
That&apos;s the equivalent of 6,800 TV licences or or 40 average annual salaries.
The six episodes of series two cost more than £6,052.074 and the limited company&apos;s profit and loss account showed no profit for 2014 year.
Series three is on its way to BBC2 ... and a fourth series may also be in the pipeline.
The directors&apos; report states: "The directors have undertaken a rigorous of whether the company was a going concern when the accounts were prepared, considering all available information about the future, covering a period of 12 months.
"The directors are not aware of any material uncertainty arising from their assessment that woudl cast doubt on the company&apos;s ability to continue.
"A detailed budget and cash flow have been prepared for the production and delivery of the film. Funds to meet the cash flow requirements are contractually in place and the directors do not anticipate any material overspend.
"The directors are therefore satisfied that the going concern assumption remains appropriate."
