Bring the Drama - Tutored by a real BBC casting director, Kelly Valentine Hendry (“Bridgerton”) eight aspiring actors recreate memorable scenes from iconic dramas aiming to score an agent. “‘Bring The Drama’ stands out as one we all think is not only brilliantly entertaining, but has a message to tell. This quotation from The Times sums it up well: ‘Jordan said that when you are working class it’s hard to try being an actor because you can’t afford to be out of work for most of the year.’ Spot on. Soaps give people from ordinary backgrounds opportunity. This show is doing the same,” says Andrew Zein at WBITP Formats, which is also launching its first gay relationship format, “Boys Like Boys,” which Zein hopes will be the first mainstream global gay dating show.
