Named here by Liverpool’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Liverpool, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Hollyoaks 1995–

“It also produces the soap opera Hollyoaks, which was formerly filmed in Chester and began on Channel 4 in 1995.” Wikipedia
