THE seaside streets and sandy beaches of Rhyl make the ‘trip of a lifetime’ for the tragic protagonist of new British rom-com.
Me, Myself & Di follows the misfortunes of English northerner Janet Brown, who wins a pub raffle prize of a free holiday to 'Sunny Rhyl' where she aims to turn her luck around and find love by taking on an entirely new personality.
She stays at the fictional Craven’s Holiday Camp, which locals may recognise as Lyons Robin Hood Holiday Park, and meets her holiday love interest – but not all goes to plan.
Rhyl shots include streets, the beach and a caravan park.
The film, released on June 11, features stars such as Larry Lamb, of Gavin & Stacey, Will Mellor, best known for his role in Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, model-turned-actress Lucy Pinder, and The Wanted singer Max George, who stars as a lifeguard.
It is is now available on DVD at stores including WHSmith and HMV.

Geoff Lyons-Mound, Lyon’s director said: “It was an absolute privilege for us to be the focal spot of the next upcoming British film. A number of our locations were used for filming ‘Me Myself and Di’, and having that buzz and excitement on park was brilliant during filming.
“It’s an honour to know that Lyons Robin Hood, with is iconic coastal location and reputation, will be featured in this classic way. A feel-good film of this kind is something we all need this summer and we can’t wait to see the film later in June.”
