Watch this clip, from a Mexican soap opera, that in 4 minutes is packed with more drama than we do in a year
Also any stabs in the dark to what she is saying? |

I don't understand what's she's saying, but that is some brilliant acting. ![]() ![]() Also, love this clip from the American show The Soup about Mexican soap La Madrastra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DqnRjoI818 |

I think she's saying more along the lines "Let's sit down, no pun intentioned and have a civilised little chat then everyone gets in the way." The character needs to come to ED, lady of the manor material.

we need to give props to EVERYTHING. The acting, music, lighting, make-up, costume, the editing, the camera zooms. all beautiful and we don't have anything of UK tv to stylishly match.

So here's the words
Gasp! "What are you doing kissing that handicapped?! So this is who you're in love with you damned crippled? With my Nandito? I've told you not to lay your eyes on him BUT YOU DID! IDIOT GIRL!!! You dared to! Well it's gonna cost you. It's gonna COST YOU! I'm gonna give you a wooping you'll never forget you crippled from hell!" Lunges at girl. Nandito: "Leave her alone!" Maid: "Don't you dare hit her!" Soraya: "Move you imbecile!" pushes Nandito "Move you whore!" pushes maid "I'm going to kill her!" vigorously shakes girl on wheelchair... (Screaming gibberish I can't make out) Girl on Wheel chair: "No please!" Maid: screaming out into the hall "She's possessed by a Demon! Soraya: "Let go of me! Let go of me you imbecile!" Girl on chair: "No please. Please. For the love of God!" gets pushed over (More screaming and cursing. Guy walks in. Soraya proceeds to attack the maid. Alicia(girl on chair): to random chick "Help her(the maid). Help her please." Guy to random girl: "Do something!" Random girl: "Me? What?" Guy: "Take the girl" Alicia: "I don't wanna go! I don't wanna go!" (Soraya in the background: "Let me go! let me go!") Guy: "Nandito, go help (maid)" Soraya: "I'll kill her. Let go of me! If she's not dead, I'll finish her. LET GO OF ME!" Nandito: "She's alive!" Maid: moans "She's trying to kill me.. Help her.." Soraya:*picks up scissors* "You will not laugh at me. Even if I have to go to jail. You will not laugh at me!!!" Guy: "Go get help" Random girl: "And the girl?" Guy: "Leave her here and hurry!" Soraya: to Nandito "You have hurt me the most. More than your father." Guy: (to Alicia) "Go hide wherever you can, please." Alicia: "No, no I'll stay here." (more screaming. Soraya stabs Nandito) Soraya: "You'll pay! You will not laugh at me!" Alicia: "She hurt you?" Nandito: "Yes" (More people arrive and are shocked. Soraya gets taken out of the room. Dramatic fainting from Nandito) Alicia: "Esperanza(maid), Nandito. It's my fault she attacked you both!" (in the hall, Soraya continues to scream gibberish) Guy: Calm down! The police are on their way and they're going to lock you up in jail!" End... Wow No OFCOM in Mexico then?

Epic
So much drama and screaming, it would be great to discuss this show on a soap forum.

Brilliant - though |'m sure the word 'unrealistic' would be used by more than one poster if this aired in EastEnders/Coronation Street/Emmerdale.
Hollyoaks should give it a go.

I couldn't watch all of it, I was so dazzled. I wish Eastenders was more like this! If only they could be as gritty and real.

Yeah, I think Charlie Clapham, Aaron Fontaine, and whoever is the bloke who plays Ziggy would do this perfectly. Although on second thought, I'm not sure if they would be quite as natural.

Lol two murders or at least grevious injuries in 4 minutes and no one calls the police and ambulance.
A soap like this would keep the SOR threads in business for years. |

Also any stabs in the dark to what she is saying? It seems more of a sitcom then a soap. |

Lool I love how they used a young woman to play and old one, and just put some manky wig on her
