Eastenders part 2


In This essay I am going to invent/create two new characters for the new Eastenders with both different characteristics and creating a description of the characters finally writing a short sample of a screen plays between the two characters.

Characters name: Ruby Linton
Age: 22
Occupation and education: An actress, studied drama at school
Gender: female
Sexuality: straight
Race/ethnicity: Canadian
Culture:
Religion: none
Class: Working
Background and relationship
To others in the square: has an older brother in the square, others find her friendly and helpful

Characters name: Leo Linton
Age: 25
Occupation and education: left school at 16 to work as serving in bars.
Gender: male
Sexuality: straight
Race/ethnicity: Canadian
Culture:
Religion: none
Class: Working
Background and relationship
To others in the square: has a younger sister in the square, others find him cheeky and very talkative.




Sample of screen play

It’s an early frosty morning, when new comers, Ruby and Leo arrive in the square; they see a grumpy old man collecting a milk bottle outside his aluminous green door.

Ruby: The people in this square don’t look so happy do they?
Leo: That’s probably coz its morning, I’m not a morning person myself
Ruby: That’s why it was so hard getting you out of the house.
Leo: That’s just me.






Script of Eastenders
Scene 724/1 EXT outside. Albert square (09.00)

(Tracers bustle in the market. Max makes his way through, carrying an armful of groceries. Ruby passes, Leo comes out of the Vic

Ruby:
Morning, max!
(Max turns around suddenly)
Max:
Yeah, Morning!
(Max then walks off puzzled, while Ruby makes her way to Leo, who is bored)
Ruby:
Bored I see?
Leo:
Uh, yeah, I just can’t find anything to do
Ruby:
Well, you can go and find a job for a start.
Leo:
What!?
Ruby:
Don’t give me that, you need a job to live here.
Leo:
Yeah, and so do you
Ruby:
I already have one.
Leo:
(Sarcastically) Fine I’ll go and look then.
(Leo then walks off in a temper)
Conclusion

In conclusion I think that my two new characters that I created for eastenders are completely different from the real east end due to that there is hardly any Canadian or Americans that live there, and there are none that act in eastenders so in my soap I have brought a new cast, new setting and new storyline.
