New Layout

I thought I'd change the layout of the blog a little as I wanted some of the items that were always at the bottom of the blog to run down the side for easier access.
This has meant that some of the writing on previous posts is out of sync but I'll look at getting that changed when I have the time.
I've also changed the header and softened the colours and tried to include a picture of all the main stars.
Also there is a media player to play Fame related music. I haven't been able to work out how to add my own MP3s yet so I could only have what was available on the site I'm using. So mainly Irene and Janet but I've added songs by the original artists that were sung on the show.
If anyone has any thoughts and comments then let me know. Thanks for all the support so far and I hope you all continue to enjoy the blog.
Mark.

Home Coming Script

This file contains the pages of the script for the Season 2 episode "Home Coming". The script was owned by Albert Hague and he has signed the cover and has made notes on the pages that contained his lines.

I've scanned the pages and put them into a Zip folder which can be downloaded but you'll need winzip to be able to access that folder so that each page can be read individually. It took me ages to scan so I hope this works!

There are a number of scenes that don't appear in the finished episode and some scenes are extended here, with some of the dialogue changed. Thanks to Shannon for photocopying the script and sending it to me.
