Ralph Fiennes campaigns against Suffolk pylons

Available for over a year

Hollywood actor Ralph Fiennes has made a film campaigning against plans to install electricity hubs and pylons across the area where he grew up. The Suffolk-born star created the four-minute film to back Suffolk Energy Action Solutions' (SEAS) call to build an offshore grid. "The environmental legacy of any government is at stake," he said. However, National Grid has disputed Fiennes' claims that an offshore solution would be cheaper. Fiennes' four-minute film, called Coast, was launched on Tuesday alongside a SEAS nationwide petition to stop the current plans and push for a parliamentary debate.
