British Soaps News – Hard Secret To Keep
She mentioned that this has been kept as a secret for months and being prepared very well by the producers. They have worked together to create a great output, especially in covering a different aspect of climate change.
“You’re going to see all the programs do a nod to the other and characters will start popping up from one soap in another soap on screen. That has never been done before,” Marshall teased.
The interconnected scenes will play out through a social media video wherein two residents from “Emmerdale” and one star from “Doctors” will be shown to “Coronation Street” characters. While “The Woolpack” will be talking about “Casualty” and “The Queen Vic” will discuss a video of Weatherfield found on a social media platform. “Hollyoaks” characters will pop up in Walford while the people of Chester explore “Holby City”.
