EastEnders New Set (The One Show)

Hi Guy's my name is Mr C. T. Boxill-Harris I was wondering, why coudn't you find a nice fresh shiny Leyland Titan B15's and Repaint them to a Grey Green Colour’s just like the original Scania Grey Green's which were in the East London bus route's such as 125, 167, 179, 173, 168, 141, 66, 275, 313 and also the bus route 103, if you guy would like to find about 17 Leyland Titan B15's, please could you Repaint them in the Exact Grey Green Bus Colour’s and put them in EastEnders for all of us because it would be a Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Interesting Buses to see them Repainted to a Grey Green Colours and put them in EastEnders, Because I'am a Big Fan of all of those Leyland Titan B15 Buses 😉😉😉😄😄

Corrie had a new set built in 2014 and, when watching older episodes or archive clips, there are one or two telltale signs of which set they were using at the time. If you know what to look for, that is.

[@johnjtm1097]

@@stevek6432 The 2014 Corrie set was designed to enable HD filming (which couldn't be done on the old set) and make filming easier for the actors and production crew. It also incorporated a police station, hospital A&E & wards and magistrates & crown court interiors for filming so the whole show could be filmed on one site, making it more cost effective and reducing the carbon footprint.

[@johnking5174]

@@soullove763 Hi. I can clarify that the commercial arm of the BBC has been there since the 1950s when the then conservative government felt the BBC could supplement their income from the licence fee by commercial means. Please remember, it is supplementing their licence fee. Now BBC Studios generally reports a profit of around £200 million a year. Bare in mind this is profit, and NOT the commonly reported £1 billion annual revenue. A lot of people confuse revenue with profit. That £200 million is given back to the main BBC. The licence fee is designed to cover the funding of programming that other commercial broadcasters would simply never touch. Production of religious programming. Coverage of parliament. Unprofitable documentaries. Kids programmes.

[@soullove763]

Who pay’s salaries of the big stars?

[@johnking5174]

@@soullove763 All salaries for Eastenders cast are funded from BBC Studios, using their commercially generated financial revenue to fund them. This is the same for ALL BBC Studios productions. The Graham Norton Show for example is produced by So Television for BBC Studios. This is why Graham Norton's salary for his talk show is £3 million as it is commercial money paying it, and NOT licence fee money.

So all they need to do is reinvest into the BBC by making programs they want to make without a) annoying their current employers ie the public and be accused of wasting taxpayers money. b) pay however much salary they want to pay their thousands of employees without having to justify it to the angry public. So bottom line is that BBC can obviously be an independent company on its own without having to force and imprison anyone who do not want to pay a money pit draconian institution!

Or perhaps they are not happy there is not enough racism, sexism and homophobia shown to please their bigoted appetites. All I can say is, the "anti-woke" brigade are the biggest moaners and snowflakes going and to need to grow up! "ooooh theres a black person, im scared", "ooooh theres a man kissing a man, disgusting", "ooooh theres a woman in charge of her self, get back in the kitchen!"
