The Making of... the roof scene

It's taken all weekend but we've eventually calmed down in the Switch office after the hiatus of last week. It was an exciting, scary and sad week for us all - exciting as we were all looking forward to the big reveal, scary because we didn't know what you'd all think, and sad because we all love Olive (and Billie) as much as you guys do. Thanks very much for all the brilliant comments on Friday and over the weekend, both on the blog and on , we read each and every one of them and loved hearing your thoughts and opinions. Keep them coming.
There were lots of comments requesting series 2 to be replayed before series 3 kicks off, and we have just enough time to fit this in for you. We're going to put the episodes up in order on The Cut homepage starting today, and with some doubling up for the first few weeks (we'll give you two episodes per day for the first three weeks) we should be able to squeeze it all in before the start of series 3. So enjoy!
Now all that's left for today is to give you the exciting video I promised on Friday. Vicki and I were lucky enough to be at the filming of the roof scene and filmed a little something ourselves, so you could all see how exactly the scene was made. There might just be a little something from Billie herself in there too. Hope you like it.
Keep watching the blog for another exclusive video this week and keep it Cut.

Vicki or Isla might get into trouble if they put them on YouTube (I'm not sure what the rules are) but if anyone has managed to record them in any way, could someone upload them? I have the first series, but it's really bad quality and owing to me being a bit of a luddite, I don't know how to upload them. Haven't got the second series though... which is the one I really want

hmm..
Cool video, I really love Billie's make up!

And yes, of course the best thing would be to release a DVD, I would never consider that if there were plans to do that, but as there aren't, I think it makes sense. You can view episodes of things like Casualty on YouTube.
