Where has no soap been set?
We've had soaps set in an ex-pat community in Spain, in a hotel, in a hospital, a police station, in a market, in a square, in a rural village, in a city suburb, on a ship... is there anywhere you could realistically set a soap that hasn't already been done?
I think a soap set on a commuter train (maybe 15 minute episodes) would be quite interesting - people sitting together on a daily basis are likely to get talking after a while, it could feel a bit claustrophobic though so maybe you'd need to have flashbacks to move the action off the train now and then. |

As a soap and sci-fi fan, I really quite liked it. Shame as soon as Sky took over BSB it got cancelled. Think they did about 150 episodes in total - 3 x half-hour eps every week. |

A soap based on a busy highstreet would be good

Hell. I would like to see Satan going through moral dilemmas about things and people, maybe having a chat with someone who has been sent him to him but not being right for the place. I would like if he was played by an actor who could keep him a villain but essentially as a fully rounded and dimensional character one that the audience could have some empathy with. I think this soap sounds good, I may write it myself. Copyright JOP!!!

Anything outside the known universe.
Any period that had dinosaurs In heaven In my house In my kidneys In your kidneys In anyones kidneys Inside the imagination of a small kitten that lives in china with a part time job as a door to door salesmens. |
