EE Live and Kathys Return
I read an interview somewhere that said they filmed dress rehearsals of the live week, and they were also sent out just in case there was an issue.
It was also on the EE Facebook page that Anna Acton stood in for Kathy during the dress rehearsals...so if the link had gone down and the live failed, what would've happened? I'm sure they specifically didn't rehearse Kathys return with Gillian to ensure it didn't get out, so would we have had Emma rising again, meeting Phil, if the live went down? |

It just wouldn't of happened.
"I'm Emma Summerhayes but could you all pretend I'm Kathy Beale? Gillian couldn't get in today." I couldn't imagine the viewers taking that seriously. |

They would of pre recorded a copy of that scene. I can imagine most or all scenes that were live haven't been pre re recorded as an in case an actor feel ill something. No way would they leave something to chance completly.

As a contractor for the BBC, my role is to have sock puppets on standby for occasions such as this. Normally its just the odd bit of news filling in or something like that, but in more recent times I've had my sock puppets cover for Fearne Cotton on Radio 1, and in this instance had 3 versions of Kathy ready to jump in at any moment.

It was stated that they recorded the dress rehearsal to go out in case there was an error...surely that was the one with Emma?

The pre-recorded version featured Adam. We wouldn't have seen Kathy but at least we would have found out how he was.

I think the live with Gillian was filmed away from the studio because it wouldn't be affected if the studio live went down. The studio live was backed up by the live rehearsal being recorded. The Kathy scene was easier to control with two actors and one camera, if anything did go wrong then the scene being missing wouldn't affect the studio story and could be slotted into a later episode. It hasn't been mentioned on screen until this week and only then an oblique reference by Billy to Phil.

It was Emma's evil twin, Gemma.
