Former Coronation Street actor Sean Wilson has claimed that ITV make the soap “on the cheap”.
The actor played Martin Platt on the soap for 21 years but is now a master cheesemaker.
The 44-year-old told the Swindon Advertiser: “Television has shot itself in the foot at the moment, it has spent a lots of money on the wrong things and has to now make things on the cheap, or in a reality show format – it’s fair to say Coronation Street has had to take that route but I had a lovely 21 years there.”
John joins a host of foreign tourists who come to Britain to pay homage to our national heroes; from the Beatles to Sherlock Holmes. John takes a magical mystery tour around Liverpool, taking in John Lennon’s house and the inspiration for the song ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’.
Die Hard fans of ITV’s The Bill are quaking in their boots as the show is put on hold during this years’ I’m A Celebrity run.
ITV have already axed popular dramas Kingdom and Heartbeat this year and with The Bill off air now until mid December, fans fear its fate will be the same.
One source told The Mirror: “Morale among the cast and crew is at an all-time low.
I’ve always hated wasps; they’re useless critters and sure enough, as if I needed more reason to dislike them, it was a spawn of Satan wasp that caused the Collision.
But I suppose to give the wasp its due, it also caused love among the pile up. Mind you, one of those love affairs would’ve meant a bloke leaving his wife… mmm, every silver lining has a cloud eh?
I must say, it was a factor that took me a tad by surprise in a drama that had been filled with intrigue and what-ifs, but the wasp did in fact make its presence known in the very first episode, so the clue was there, we just had to be able to absorb seemingly useless trivia.
The scene in which the waitress tried to kill it didn’t seem especially relevant at the time but of course, with hindsight, if she’d swatted it, none of what happened would’ve happened. It’s all very interesting and chaos theory, which for me, added to the general excellence of the drama. Read more & comment »
Joseph Gilgun has revealed that he is leaving ITV’s Emmerdlae.
Joe has played Eli Dingle on the show since 2006 but admitted that it is time to move on.
Speaking at the premiere of his new film Harry Brown, Joseph said: “It will be sad to leave – I’ve made a lot of good friends there, but I think it is time to move on as far as my career is concerned.”
ITV have announced the cast and start of principal photography for A Bouquet of Barbed Wire.
Six weeks of principal photography began this week on the ITV1 drama, A Bouquet of Barbed Wire.
Trevor Eve (Waking the Dead, Framed) leads the cast as Peter Manson. Written by acclaimed writer Guy Andrews (Lost In Austen, Prime Suspect), the drama will be filmed on location around London.
I’ve previously stated in my reviews that there are just too many travelogue shows. We seem to have been subjected to loads of them of late, and when I saw that the affable, rubber faced but disarmingly charming John Sergeant was hosting yet another, I could barely stifle my yawn.
However, although John packed his bags and headed off, it was more of a weekend jaunt around this green and pleasant land of ours rather than a long-haul flight to examine all some far flung corner of the earth can offer.
And another thing that made this programme rather unique was that John met with, and cross examined – the journalist in him is still alive under that sequinned bolero jacket – visitors to Britain about some of their preconceptions of us. And the results were both amusing and bizarre at times. Read more & comment »
Coronation Street actress Jennie McAlpine has admitted that this year’s Christmas episodes will be very dramatic.
Jennie plays Fiz on the show and is currently filming the festive scenes. She told RTE:
“What can I say? It is dramatic, really dramatic, but I think it’s going to be really, really traditional Corrie, in that there’s real high drama over the Christmas, but then real farcical comedy as well. Christmas Eve is very funny.”
Katherine Kelly has credited Coronation Street’s Roy and Hayley Cropper, for the success of her character on the soap.
Kelly told ATV news network: “The Croppers were the making of Becky, and without them I actually don’t think Becky would still be in the show. The Croppers, especially Roy, were the thing that really turned public opinion [about Becky] around to being positive.
As you can see from the pictures, Coronation Street is currently filming the wedding scenes for Gail Platt and Joe McIntyre but don’t expect things to run smoothly.
Co-written by Anthony Horowitz and Michael A Walker, this fast-paced but intricately woven drama on ITV last night proved the validity of that old idiom about not trying to reinvent the wheel; the simple ideas will always work well.
And the drama’s focal point is something that intrigues us all – the what ifs and the whys when an accident happens. That thought that maybe fate really does have a guiding hand in our lives because that other well used phrase, ‘if only’ is rarely more apropos.
By providing a back-story to everyone who was in the genuinely spectacular collision of the does-what-it-says-on-the-tin title, Horowitz and Walker posed lots of questions, but one thing that I did have to take some issue with was, would so many of the people in the crash be involved in something ‘shady’?
