The village of Menheniot is set to star on the small screen after being used as a location in a German film.

Camera crews, actors and extras took over the village on Monday and Tuesday to shoot scenes for a film called 'Heartbreak', adapted from a Rosamunde Pilcher novel, which is to be shown on German television channel ZDF.

The Pilcher adaptations are a big hit in Germany, with coachloads of tourists often coming over to the UK to see where they were filmed.
