It's viewers may be ailing over here in the UK, but
that hasn't stopped Fox Broadcasting from planning a
US version of hit BBC soap 'Eastenders'. The Us company
has ordered six scripts for the project, spearheaded
by Simon (Pop Idol) Fuller and "EastEnder's"
head writer and story consultant Tony Jordan.
The
US version will revolve around the lives of blue-collar
families in Chicago.
Jordan,
who is said to have written 250 Eastenders episodes
will write the six scripts and executive produce with
Fuller.
