Verbotene Liebe im XL-Format: die Redaktion der WDR mediagroup im Dauereinsatz
Ein 20-köpfiges Team in Berlin entwickelt Storylines, die von verschiedenen Autoren in ganz Deutschland innerhalb von 3 bis 4 Wochen in Drehbücher umgesetzt werden. Für das Redaktionsteam heißt das, rund 700 Seiten Text pro Woche zu lesen und zu studieren, da wöchentlich jeweils fünf Folgen der Serie abgenommen werden müssen. „Dabei muss man sehr eng zusammen und Hand in Hand arbeiten“, so Iris Homann. Schließlich hat jedes Redaktionsmitglied die komplette Story sowie sämtliche Dialoge, Charaktere und Szenarien zu kennen und zu verinnerlichen.
