Belinda+Justin Q&A

#AskBandJ #Sanditon

BC: Thank you for everything – you’re incredible and inspirational and we can’t wait to hear what you think of Season 2. Not long now … ! #AskBandJ #AskBelinda #Sanditon #SanditonS2

JY: Thanks so much for all of your thoughtful questions and for your continuing support of our show. I really hope you love Series 2 as much as we loved making it. #AskBandJ #AskJustin #Sanditon #SanditonS2

There is an insane amount of flirty banter. Honestly. Probably too much at points. #AskJustin #Sanditon 5/5

The Regiment do indeed bring a different dynamic - we wanted this to feel like a continuation of series 1 but also with a fresh energy that immediately makes it feel like a new start, which I think it does. #AskJustin #Sanditon 4/

Actors often find a way of putting a spin on a line where it sounds way better than it did in your head or the director shoots a scene in a way that massively adds to it. #AskJustin #Sanditon 4/4

Scenes were always shot as written. But sometimes I’d talk to an actor beforehand and we’d change a line or fix a scene - e.g. sometimes they’d feel they could communicate in a look what I’d taken 3 lines to write. #AskJustin #Sanditon 3/

The time pressure was both help and hindrance - it was very long hours and no weekends for a year - but it certainly focused the mind. #AskJustin #Sanditon 3/3

Outline wise, I start with the conclusion and the start point, work out the key beats that need to connect them, then gradually fill it in. #AskJustin #Sanditon 2/

If I could give anyone a spin off, it would be Dr Fuchs and Mr and Miss Hankins. They are 3 amazing actors and I wish we’d had space to see far more of them. They could have their own show where they solve crimes together. #AskJustin #Sanditon 5/5

This time around I haven’t borrowed any names from my family, alas - although the real Fred Robinson was happy to be on imdb. #AskJustin #Sanditon 4/
