Re: Max.where are you?
I ended up spending the evening out. I've only just got back in. I never saw the EE episode, but will watch it on the re-run on Sunday. That wont be a case of watching it live (as it happened), but it will be the live episode so I will see if they blundered or not. I intended coming home after work but went out, then we ended up at a late-night place. It's after 3.00am now and this is the first time I've seen my flat for about 19 hours. I'm knackered!

Re: Eastenders LIVE episode tonight..
I watched the repeat of the live episode this afternoon and I was quite impressed. The interior shots are done in the studio, which is several hundred yards from the Albert Square, and surrounding streets, set. Therefore when you would see people talking outside, then it cuts to other characters elsewhere, then a few minutes later it cuts back to the first two and they are now inside a building talking, they would have had to have travelled hundreds of yards in those 2 or 3 minutes to get to the interior set. This happened numerous times in that 30 minute live episode and it worked fine. Logistically it was very complicated but they pulled it off without a snitch.
The scene where Bradley climbed onto the roof of the community centre, whilst chased by the Police, then ran across the roof of the pub, was very well done. When 'Bradley' was up on the roof's it was obviously a stunt man (obvious anyway, but further confirmed by the fact you never saw his face after he scaled the ladder). For the stunt guy to then fall off, and then a few seconds later Bradley is seen dead on the road below, was very well done. The actor who plays Bradley would have had to have come down that ladder, down the metal steps, around the corner to the outside of the pub (whilst the chase which involved the stunt guy who was meant to be him happened on the roofs) then wait for 'himself' (stuntman) to fall, the stunt guy and the mat he would have landed on be cleared away, then Bradley has to have 'blood' applied to his head, lie down and be dead, with blood on him and on the road. All this in one take and they got the timing exactly right.
Well done Eastenders!
