Other bits and pieces

The station is back up to two pumps with the new style fronts.
Shadbrook has a newer TL
The old rank structure is back, so Pearce is Sub
Callaghan's wife is called Shauna and played by Lisa Walker
Favourite between-shoot pastime was Playstation 2 football - best player - Terry Alderton!

At this point I'd like to thank David Newcombe, producer for the past 3 years who has been a valuable source of information for this site.

David has decided to leave the show and LWT for a project at the Beeb, I'm sure I speak for everyone when we wish him well for the future

This years LB marathon team consisted of Edward Peel, Connor Byrne, Tristan Gemmill, Heather Peace Mick Garner and Sam Callis.

Mick came first, follwed by Heather, Sam and Tristan. Much banter was exchanged as the youngsters couldn't get upstairs on the dining bus for three days afterwards and were "pathetic" on set, but Michael kept showing off that he beat them!

OLDER NEWS ON THE SERIES

There is a new creative team behind this series so expect some fireworks and surprises. ITV are to launch a major poster campaign for the show later next year to try and win some viewers back.

The show will move from its "soft" Sunday spot to a weeknight slot after 9pm. This is to allow it to show more graphic scenes than usual.

Remember where you read it first!

N.B. Fans are asked NOT to visit Leyton on the off-chance LB is being filmed. Most of the scenes are shot at the studios, and you could be delaying the reaction times of the REAL Firefighters at Leyton.
