  • I find what you say very intelligent and true. Do write a script and practice this or do you just turn the camera on and go?

  • @magmarock64k

    It's just a case of turning the camera on, talking and seeing what happens. I find if I try to script or pre-empt my videos in any way they don't work.

  • this guy is so underated

  • Hell of a good vid, as good as a soap with the hero as a tax avoider.

    Other thoughts I had are that the actors in soaps must be real ghouls, and, of course the famous one is that in soaps you never see a hint of TV. In truth if the storyline featured TV as a component of dialogue or part of the set, then the audience would concentrate on THAT TV, rather than the production of the soap opera.

    Oh, thank you. I must say that I'm really impressed then. Because I've tried doing that sort of thing but as soon as there's a camera in my face I freeze up and can't say anything/

  • im in America thinking that England didnt have this problem im legitimately sad knowing that general mindset extends across the pond

  • bro if u think east enders is bad u dont even understand. at least in east enders they interact with real environments in American soaps everything is a backdrop or a set even if they are outside and every type of human interaction or communicative effort suggests this mixture of ignorance, entitlement, and complete superficiality that is synonymous with American culture. there bad to the point were i didnt even consider east enders a soap until i watched this video

  • Watch Soap Operas? Just cut my wrists open and let me Bleed Out!!!

  • Damn! Last I checked, Soaps in America were just about who was sleeping with who!

  • Wow! You really hate Soaps! I had a good laugh. Very clearly expressed.

  • Do u like wang in ur butthole? well i can provide :)
