If this was live tonight, the actress who plays Lauren Branning has just had a baby girl and came out of hospital yesterday. Now what if she had a c-section and had to stay in hospital, would they have to have rewritten the whole episode.
Putting that aside, was she well enough to act on tonights show, though she looked in good health from the photos in the paper.
Though I noticed she was hiding her tummy in tonights episode, like she was still preggers. The photo in the papers of her leaving hospital were of a relatively flat tummy. Hmmm I wonder how live this episode was.
How confusing, they are saying the live parts are at the beginning and end of the episodes, well thats not how it was portrayed on advertising it. I thought the whole episode was live.
Sammy,I don't watch,but while flicking round and with all the hype about I saw a reference to this week which said that some parts of each night would be live and would feature "#live" in the top right hand corner. The episode on friday is the total live one
Live TV has nearly always included some prerecorded portions of the programme, in the earliest days the prerecorded material was on film (usually location work or a chase or fight sequence) since video tape wasn't introduced to the UK until 1958.
I'm not really worried one way or the other because I haven't watched it for 20-odd years but...Radio Times clearly explains that Friday's episode is completely live and only parts of other days' episodes are.
The #EELive appeared at the beginning and end of the show. I'm guessing that a lot of it had to be pre-recorded due to Jacqueline Jossa's announcing her pregnancy after the producers said they would do several live episodes last year.
I remember reading or seeing something last year that they wanted to do a whole week of live shows and some of the cast were horrified at the prospect.
In my opinion Barbra Windsor is one of the worst actresses ever. She was so lucky to get that role in EE, she would have melted into obscurity otherwise. Also the actors that play Nick Cotton ( dreadful actor) , Shamen or whatever her name is , Lucy, oh and don't get me started on Sharon Rolling Eyes, are all terrible. I love the rest though!
