The cast and crew headed to Tenerife to shoot scenes
The show's creator, Louise Doughty, who is also known for writing the book Apple Tree Yard, opened up about what it was like to film in Tenerife, despite Crossfire not being actually set there.
"We did slightly fake it. Tenerife is a very big island, and it does have armed police officers who would come very quickly, and we needed them to take about an hour.
"So we did imply that it's a much smaller island, like Fuerteventura or one of the tiny islands in the Canary Islands, because we needed that rescue could only come by helicopter, and that there was only a couple of local cops on the island."

What has the cast said about filming on location?
Keeley opened up about filming scenes in Tenerife for the show. She told press about how she was staying in the hotel they were filming in: "My bedroom was actually Jo's room, so it was a highly unusual I don't think I've ever experienced that before. It's not something I'd recommend. There's an element of stir crazy that goes on but luckily everybody got on really well."
