If you were Executive Producer of one of the Soaps what storyline would you do.
Firstly Just wanted to say Hi, Im new to the boards and just thought i would say ello'. I have been reading the boards for ages but never had an email address that allowed me to register.
In answer to my question I asked, I would like to be Executive Producer of Eastenders and to be fair to KH I like to think that I would do some of the storylines she has lined up, I would however not axe Leslie Grantham as I think him and Chrissie behind the Bar will be good. I would like to see a Major Disaster in the Square like has been mentioned in previous posts, something along the lines of a Tube train coming crashing off the bridge taking out the Laundrette, Shop, Vic, Cafe and the Fowlers. With a decent Budget that could be superb Episode if done correctly, with News crews and Emergency Service and the aftermath not brushed under the carpet like too many stories in the past year. I would end that Sharon and Dennis storyline as it is so boring. Watching Mad Maya recently on Corrie made me realise how Poor EE is at the moment and really needs sorting out. I hope KH is on to this! What would everyone else do? Last edited by Jamesessex69 : 30-11-2004 at 17:42. Reason: Title didnt make sense |

I'd do a major health issue, that revolves around the males!
like Prostate/testicular cancer! - most blokes refuse to go to see a doctor about their problems down there.... and that area needs to be highlighted, as it is a killer! I know Emmerdale have just done Colon/bowel cancer... but the taboo cancers need to be addressed too! or maybe they could do a major STI story?, not just crabs...... but the likes of HIV/Clamydia, Gonorhea (sp?) maybe they could do an ASBO plot too......? with an unruly family, who menace everyone, and they all rally together to take out a civil action... they would reflect society! |

Indeed, something like Mad Maya in Walford could be good. Chrissie's revenge when she finds out Den had made Zoe pregnant, mid afternoon Angies Den explodes, Walford is in shock, later that night the police swarm on the Square saying they got a bomb scare in the pub, they calm everyone down, saying its probably a false alarm. As everyone is ushered outside, the Vic is obliterated in a massive explosion which shatters glass of the neighbouring houses on the Square. All the residents are there, screaming, some have been knocked to the ground from the force of the blast.
During the madness of the Clubs' explosion. Zoe, not knowing that Chrissie knows about her pregnancy, follows Chrissie into flat when she asks for her opinion on a dress. Once inside Chrissie confronts Zoe, and a massive catfight breaks out, Chrissie breaks a vase over Zoe's head. Den Returns and he walks into his living room to find Zoe covered in blood lying on the floor, as he kneels over her Chrissie whacks him over the head with an ornament. She ties Den up and drags him into the kitchen. She gags Zoe but leaves her in the living room right under the window. Zoe comes to and starts screaming. Chrissie is sat in the kitchen mocking Den, who's gagged and tied up. A loud explosion is heard and Zoe screams as the window shatters all over. Chrissie knows the police and fire squad will be around, so with no time to loose she douses the place with petrol. And sets a match, the flat becomes engulfed in flames as chrissie makes a hasty exit out a back window. She turns and smiles as the fire spreads rapidly. Out on the Square the Vic is still an inferno, the Slaters, Brannings, Fowlers, Millers all watch in amazement. Keith notices the smoke from the Watts and the residents begin to panic. Because its a soap and soap characters tend to be very silly, Keith, Alfie and Garry rush up the steps, they kick the door in to find it ablaze! the fire just about to hit the living room, Alfie spots Zoe who's passed out again. Keith and Garry try to get to the kitchen but its too late. "Get out quick!" a fireman arrives on the scene as Zoe is carried out of the Watts. Sharon and Dennis arrive on the scene. Garry shouts that someone is in the kitchen, Den is lying on his side and facing out into the hallway. The fireman pushes him out of the flat. As he tries to save Den, the place explodes, sending Alfie, Garry and Keith flying down the steps, Kat screams as she sees Zoe and Alfie lying in blood. As Sharon screams, Chrissie is seen running onto the Square screaming in hysterics, as she hugs Sharon, she surveys the damage, a quick glance at Zoe, she looks up at the raging inferno and half smiles. The End Obviously that can't be done now because it would be quite similar to Mad Maya with the exception that Den and the fireman dies. Still, something like that would be good, an a good exit for Den. |
