Actors shouldn't be complaining about having to 'act' live once in a blue moon even if it's just to add to the tension and help draw in more viewers. They should take the occasion to showcase talents and prove they don't rely on playing themselves throughout the year or need countless retakes to make them look good.

Those who buckle under the nerves and pressure shouldn't be in the profession quite frankly. Producers take note and get rid of the fakes. Plenty of stage actors out there who'd die for the amount of screen time the actors in soaps get.

Don't waste it.

Who's complaining?

Most of the actors say they have "nerves" in general but that's natural and most are only concerned about the technical difficulties of doing it live with set changes, cameras etc and the possibility of bad weather.

Yeah they"ve got nothing to worry about, it's not like we'll remember who it was who fluffed their lines and will spend eternity mocking them. *waves at Scott Maslen*

I haven't seen anyone complaining, but just saying, that they are nervous, but exited. Also some have said, that they are worried over possible rain or technical problems.

I am quite sure everyone will do their absolute best.

very rarely do any actors have to perform LIVE in front of MILLIONS of people with no retakes, no nothing and the fear that if they slip up, the timing will be messed up etc etc. You can't say that what they are doing tomorrow is anything like acting profession is like. It's completely different.
