noahandsaskia06_rap Rap point 2- a point to ponder from Lee Burton



Hi every-one who has responded to Rap Point 2. I agree with Carol that there are some very thoughtful and interesting insights in your emails.

 

I thought that you might be interested to know a bit about why the decision was made to end the series without Noah & Saskia meeting in real life. We felt that the reality is for most teenagers online that you will not have the opportunity to meet people from chat rooms. We hear about adults meeting online and meeting and even sometimes getting married, but not often.

 

Of course, in TV and films, practical considerations are swept away: the cost to travel to another country, the possibility that the person doesn’t exist in as they have portrayed themselves online etc…

 

We wanted Noah & Saskia to be as close to a real situation as possible. And there’s the teaser of may-be one day?

 

What do you think? Can you write another ending? What would it be?

 

Lee
