"The cave is the most stunning location, with sunlight coming through these arching rocks. We had the most amazing intimacy coordinator and choreographed it to the point that me and Ewan became so comfortable, we were able to conjure up real romance. It's sexy, but also feels true for teenagers falling in love."
"The show's not afraid of sex. Neither is Emma. I find sex scenes the least nerve-racking part of the job. As a woman, you grow up in a world where you're accustomed to being seen in that way. Emotional scenes are more intimidating."
A Woman of Substance, an adaptation of Barbara Taylor Bradford's novel, includes multiple sex scenes filmed at unusual Yorkshire moor locations, including a hidden cave and a love shack. Showrunner Katherine Jakeways emphasizes the beauty and lighting of these settings. Actress Jessica Reynolds, who plays young Emma Harte, discusses how the production employed an intimacy coordinator to choreograph scenes, allowing her and co-star Ewan Horrocks to develop genuine chemistry and romantic connection. Reynolds notes that sex scenes feel less intimidating than emotional scenes, attributing this to societal conditioning. She expresses comfort with the material, having previously appeared in the film Kneecap.
