Talking Prisoner Cell Block H EP 34 Part 2 Interview with Coral Drouyn (Script Writer/Story Editor)
Welcome to Episode 34 of Talking Prisoner. Hosts Ken Mulholland and Matt Batten sat down with the talented Script Writer/Script Editor/Storyliner and Story Editor Coral Drouyn. In part 1 we covered Corals time on Prisoner, Coral worked on prisoner for over 224 episodes and at one stage was running the entire writing office. Coral discussed with us how she began her time on Prisoner and her ambition to work on Prisoner in the earlier days of the show. Coral was able to run us through the writing process and how it all starts and the visits to the studios in Nunawading to look at the sets so the writing team knew what they were working with. Coral explained the differences between her roles as a Script Writer, Script editor, Storyliner and Story editor. Coral wrote fan favourite episode 369 (Bea Shoots Nola) and told us about her idea for this episode and why they killed off Carole Skinners character Nola McKenzie. We then discussed how Coral took hold of the character Joan Ferguson and the dark places she took Joan and where the idea for the black leather gloves came from and the story behind it (Fans will love this story) We moved on to Episode 391 which saw Wentworth go into lockdown with the inmates contracting Lassa Fever, Coral was responsible for storylining this episode and we asked her where her idea came from to lockdown Wentworth. Coral told us about her leaving the show and how her writing process starts. We were also very fortune to breakdown Corals characters that she developed and we found out who was originally going to play Rita Conners, This interview is jam packed with so much behind the scenes Prisoner information and we will be filming part 2 to answer all fan questions.
