The long broadcast breaks don't give us a break because we
don't stop filming during them. We start filming at the beginning of
August, and we shoot straight through to May, with only breaks for
holidays and a quick one-week hiatus in the fall and spring. It would
be hideously expensive and difficult to stop and start shooting every
five weeks.
