Fans are the Heart of Heartland

You will be seeing some local faces in an upcoming episode of Season 10 of Heartland. Some 650 enthusiastic Heartland fans were in the stands to show their appreciation and be extras in their favourite show at the Millarville Racetrack today. Cast and crew are happily celebrating this tenth season with their fans. They are proud of the show’s accomplishments and are happy to be part of the Foothills community that has embraced them. The fans got a taste of what being “on set” is like. The scene was shot from different angles, and the weather had to be considered. If a cloud came over and the previous angle was in sunshine, the scene had to be done again. After a few takes and lots of interaction with the cast, the scene was complete. Some of the extras in the crowd today came from as far away as England, Australia, and many parts of the U.S. The first episode of the tenth season of Heartland will air next week.
