Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 Taping, the writing is usually done much longer in advanced, I believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 18, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted April 18, 2009 Ah okay thanks. I figured the writing was done longer in advanced. I think they already know what they're going to do with Emma/Hannah's exit in Fall(?). Hmm...I never noticed before but Nancy/Jessica Fox can be quite pretty. She currently looks really good with bangs/brown hair. LOL at Carmel being having potato-phobia. Poor Hannah getting hurt because of Ash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 So, wait: even though he's still credited, it kind of... Sucks? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 I wouldn't say it sucks, just some of the polish that was there before is gone. Who knows how much of his stuff was changed or how much he cared by the end anyway. But I really haven't had time to watch lately, but will soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 Probably. They must have altered his projections. Even heavily. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) But how weird this all feels... He resigns as EP, then after a few months he comes back to head a spin-off or something? And when one says that he has projects "in development", that always spells "nothing will ever come out of it". Sadly.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) I believe he resigned to take a higher post at Lime Pictures, the production company that produces Hollyoaks. The late-night spin-off is only like five hour long episodes, so I guess he figured what the hell, it won't hurt him to be in charge of it. He's a gifted storyteller, and I really wish Lime had asked him create an entirtely new program, but that's not to be I guess.

Members Sylph Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 And did he get it? The higher post? It's sad such gifted auteurs have very slight chances of getting a new program on air. And sometimes, even when they do, the shows turn out to be total train wrecks (network interferences and all). I wonder what happened to Jonathan Harvey's telenovela for talkbackTHAMES and BBC... I bet there is a bible or a pilot written, but nothing came out of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 I guess he did, given he's still affiliated with Lime and will be producing the late-night spin-off for them. Yeah, it's sad, but the British soap industry especially is all about constant change and new management I guess. Hmm, good question, what did become of it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 I have no idea. It must be one of those much ado about nothing ideas that someone had and then — nothing. Perhaps JamesF knows something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ben Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 I'm not a Hollyoaks fan, so I don't know what I'm doing here, but to answer one of your questions, I did read on DS a couple of weeks ago that the new producer's eps start in June. This is still BK's work. Oh, I know, I had heard that the show has become crap, and wondered if you guys felt the same (hence me being here). And on the subject of that telenovela, I was very surprised to read about it being in development, especially seeing as that kind of OTT drama is kind of a niche thing. I believe it was supposed to be called Beautiful Thing. Clearly it's been scraped. Googling it, there doesn't seem to be any reason why... unless I've missed it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 Wait, no. Beautiful Thing is Jonathan Harvey's play from 1993. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ben Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 Damn Google! No, wait... damn me for skim reading! I thought it didn't sound very telenovela-esque. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
