One of the show’s directors, Lucy Gaffy, also gave a look into what the filming process was really like. On Instagram, she said it was “six months and 106 shoot days of plague, border closures, crocodiles, leeches, March flies (the worst), incredible heat, unbelievable storms, more plague … then of course, more rain and then the floods floods floods.”

However, she concluded it was “the time of [her] life.”
