I have been asked to start this thread for anyone who hasn't seen the video saying by DVO that Lee has a part in a BBC drama link is on any theme will do by PKP
Thanks Acer (and Maggiemay and PKP), it's fantastic news. Wonder what it is. Also thanks Ladies for the extra info which got cut when, presumably, they combined the two interviews which Denise gave.
When Lee tweeted that he'd been to see Cerys Matthews in concert in Bristol, I thought it was a bit odd - she'd been performing in London a few days earlier, but ours is not to reason why where Lee is concerned! However, now it becomes a bit clearer - if he was there anyway for filming............
Unless it's something new, all I know that's filmed in Bristol is Casualty - and presumably, by association, Holby City.
Lots of stuff is filmed in Bristol such as wildlife (Lee and the dolphins?) and parts of Dr Who, did so want Lee to get that part. He looks a bit like Tom Baker.
Hasn't 'Casualty' been moved to Cardiff?
The last two series of 'Being Human' were filmed in Bristol!!!
Maybe it's something new or a one off drama. Guess we'll just have to wait and see,
When Denise said Lee couldn't go on hoiday he had a part in a BBC drama and they were on holiday she said of course Lee was with Dr somebody I couldn't catch who she said does anyone know who she was talking about and if so will it give a clue to what the drama is?
acer, you DID say Dr somebody!
I hope we don't have to wait too long to find out what he's been up to!
I'm hoping for a costume drama!
I've just caught up with Denise's interview. Thanks for the link PKP.
Acer, I just re-listened to the Denise interview and she doesn't mention any doctor at all. The bit that mentions Lee and the BBC job is as follows:
"I've just recently been on holiday and my husband was supposed to come with us, it was supposed to be our family holiday, but Lee has just landed a role in a BBC drama which is very exciting. So he was whizzed off to Bristol to start filming . . ."
SSo maybe Casualty or Holby? Imagine Lee in a bed with variou parts of his body showing and nurses fighting to look after him. Or he could be the psycho on the ward?Hope we hear soon.
Casualty is still filmed in Bristol until later this year I believe.
Holby City is filmed at Elstree in Hertfordshire.
Being Human moved to Barry, Cardiff, from the 3rd series and any future series are expected to remain in Barry.
Doctor Who is primarily Wales based unless they have a specific reason for going elsewhere (Italy for The Fires of Pompeii, America for The Impossible Astronaut). I think filming has wrapped for this series as well, and I don't know if a 7th series has been commissioned yet (I assume it's wrapped as Matt Smith keeps being seen frolicking with his girlfriend as if he has nothing better to do!)
Sources: my obsession with anything doctor-y related (Doctor Who or doctor/nurse programmes)
Thanks so much for putting in this thread. I have so little time to follow the forum these days and would have missed the interview without it. Denise spoke so well and so brilliantly about Lee and Betsy. it also explained why she holdayed without him. Love to all my LMAS friends.
