One (Casualty)
[edit]- ... that although the Casualty episode "One" was billed as being filmed in one continuous take, the opening scene was filmed separately to the rest of the episode? Source: "In order to be able to maintain one shot, the explosion at the beginning of the episode that happens pre-credits, was filmed before. But once the ambulance kicks in and starts driving, that was 48 minutes of continuous filming!"
- ALT1:... that the Casualty production team wore medical scrubs on-set during the filming of the Casualty episode "One" so they could disguise themselves if they were caught on camera? Source: "Everybody that was on the floor, so all the assistant directors, some of the ancillary crew around cameras, sound, art department, everybody was actually in costume so we were seeing people that we work with all the time dressed as nurses or doctors.")
- ALT2:... that the Casualty co-creator Paul Unwin was invited to write the series 31 finale, "One", having not written for the drama regularly since its second series? Source: "Written by Paul Unwin, the original co-creator, this extraordinary episode will cover an hour in the famous emergency department and incorporate all our well-loved series regulars.")

Article was new enough at the time of creation, the article is very long and detailed (almost GA quality; I'd suggest you nominate it for GAN right away), is appropriately sourced, and so on. The images are properly licensed, no close paraphrasing was found, quotes are properly attributed, and the article is neutral and stable. The nominator has done a QPQ. Of the three hooks, ALT1 is probably the one that would interest the broadest audience, although I'd suggest you remove the second mention of Casualty in the hook. Although this is good to go, I'd suggest that you also propose a hook about the episode mostly being done in continuous takes, since I don't think that's very common in television series, though my preference would remain ALT1 either way. ALT1 is cited properly so it's accepted here. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 03:53, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you for your review Narutolovehinata5 and for suggesting I take this article to GAN! I might take your advice once I'm finished here!
I'm happy to go with the revised ALT1 as follows: - ALT3:... that the Casualty production team wore medical scrubs on-set during the filming of the episode "One" so they could disguise themselves if they were caught on camera?
- If you're happy with this hook, so am I. Thanks again, Soaper1234 - talk 14:52, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
