Beneath The Surface

Beneath The Surface is a 2012 London serial drama created by forum members Jamie and Ross as a collaborative project. It was announced on 19th November 2012, with Episode 1 being published on the same day. The project lasted for 18 episodes, but Jamie's decision to withdraw from the project ultimately brought about its demise. Episode 18 was therefore the last to be published, on 28th February 2013.
The project received a generally positive reception, and won an award for 'Best New Soap' at WRIXAS 4, on 19th January 2013. Areas in the show are not entirely clear but some of the residents live on the fictional Fielding Lane, which itself appears to be in a fictional suburb called Greenbridge.
