Hey, longtime Edge fans, I have good news for you. First of all, Bruce Martin (Keith Whitney/Jonah Lockwood) has sent me photos on my Facebook page of THE tower where Keith threw his uncle, Dr. Charles Weldon, over the top, and where Keith later met his own demise.

It's on the grounds of a beautiful country club in the Pocono Mountain area. www.lordsvalleycountryclub.org

Second piece of good news -- The webmaster for The Edge of Night Homepage is in the process of doing a new one...you can find it at

I have wonderful news for all longtime Edge fans. For those of us, who had the pleasure of seeing the Whitney storyline (1970-71), we saw, what was, probably, the best storyline in Edge's history and a crown jewel for our revered headwriter, Henry Slesar.

I have been invited to the site where the on-location shoots took place, to see the 'Tower' where Keith Whitney (Bruce Martin) pushed his uncle, Dr. Charles Weldon (David Hooks), off the roof, and where, later, Keith stumbled down the spiral staircase to his death.

The general manager is as equally excited as I am. It has been my dream to see this beautiful property. I also have the script for the December 3, 1971 episode that saw the climax to this riveting storyline.

This has been on my 'bucket list,' and now, more than 40 years later, I will get to see where it all happened, under the guidance of directors John Sedwick and Allan Fristoe. I have also been blessed to hear from Keith/Jonah (Bruce Martin) and Tiffany (Lucy Martin)biggrin.png

I will be going down sometime during the week of July 16. I will keep you posted.

I was reading an old magazine and I thought I saw something about Laurie Kennedy taking over as Laurie. Or something Kennedy. Did anyone by this name play Laurie? I think it said something about she was passed over for another role on the show, but then got Laurie.

    • I strongly suspect the same. Happens often.
    • Beth #1 being recast right before she and Eric come face to face was jarring.  We spent the first 50 episodes or so getting to know Beth and see her rapport with her kids, co worker, and even her mother in law. Her Beth seemed content with her kids and job as caterer, but you could tell she also had a faraway look that you just knew meant that she dreamed of what life would have been like had she and Eric gotten together.   Plus, she came across as someone that you could see eventually moving into more wealthy circles based on her demeanor.   Seeing Beth always looking off into space probably helped fuel Brooke's dreams of wealth because she saw how unfulfilled her mother was.  Once Beth was recast starting in episode 52, that whole vibe completely changed and Beth #2 seemed to almost like living the middle class life.. and that her Beth would feel ill at ease around wealth, etc.
    • I agree.  I've always chalked it up to the fact that DALLAS had been a pop culture phenomenon for many years and that viewers, including viewers who'd stop watching years before, were tuning in one last time to say goodbye. Also agree that it was interesting to see KL finish 27th for the week.  Any show doing that well after 12 seasons is a miracle, lol.
    • I don't know anything BTS, but your theory seems reasonable.
    • In comparison to Maurice Johnson, sure, but he's still... stiff AF. "Leaps and bounds" is a strong exaggeration as well. Watching him is like watching paint dry. I'd recast him next, ASAP.
    • Yes! Andre easily could have just been a hunk with no real depth (like Derek) but his character is rounding out very nicely.
    • They're contract; anyone in the opening is a contract player.
    • I was watching an episode last night and noticed that Pictionary is taped in Atlanta. It's just a walk for Chandler to the studios.

    • my vote goes to Eden (Belle)! She single handed carried that show on her back !! Best family will probably be The Dingles! I have to say 2024-2025 was a mixed bag on all of them soaps ! But if I had to say which one would be the best I would give it to Emmerdale for Belle/Tom’s storyarc. It went on for too long but at least was written properly compared to others. But I do think Corrie will win best soap for Mason’s storyline  Best storyline… I wish it would be Belle and tom but the abuse story from Hollyoaks will take that 100%
