I surrendered Meme

[thisbluespirit]

I've been thinking about this since I talked about favourite memes the other day. And, you know, maybe it's been long enough that we could risk it again? Let's see:

1. Comment to this post with "I surrender!" and I'll assign you the basis of some TV show idea. (Science fiction show, medical drama, criminal procedure, etc...)
2. Create a cast of characters, including the actors who'd play them.
3. Add in any actor photos, character bios and show synopsis that you want.
4. Post to your own journal.

(If you've never played before: warning for potential brain-eating.)

Before I did this, I was looking up to see the prompts I gave, and I hereby promise not to give you one about an SF show with a Shakespeare obsessed serial killer again. *cough*

Anyway, this is a little vague as a prompt, but what if there's a literal ghost train network along all the disused/closed railway lines, (of course, incorporating lost Underground stations, too). And the people who know about it and, er, have to guard the secret/use it for stuff/haunt it. Anyway "ghost train network", whatever you can do with that.

My first thought was: "How could I possibly make a show with that premise?"

After a few hours' thought, my concerns are now more along the lines of "If I have to send all the actors to a different corner of the railway network each week that'll wreak havoc with the filming budget." :-)

Now you're just being silly. Obviously, you just use stock film and blue screen. ;-p
