This question might seem daft, as this situation has probably occurred in the past, but when Julia's Theme is used on a mid-week episode, is there a set protocol for the Sunday omnibus? .
they didnt show the scene with Julia's theme, they cut straight to Thursday's episode with Bianca and the kids

I think you'll find they did... Just without Julia's Theme and with added sounds of people crying.
there's going to be snow in June in Walford judging by the view on the webcams this morning
that might slightly fugde up the continuity
any ideas why they film so far in advance
The snow had all melted by about 5pm so I dare say it'll just come across on screen as being after a bit of rain. Anyway snow in June is unusual but it has happened in real life - June 1975 for your information was the last time it happened.
However considering media reports you'd think we never saw snow before. One of the most amazing things about this country is that we have a little bit of snow and everything grinds to a halt. Canada has snow for months on end, and they don't stop.
As to why the show is filmed in advance, why do you think this is? The show is not something you can knock together in five minutes the night before transmission. Anyway its no secret that the storylines are planned months in advance for research, writing and what not, then filmed about six weeks before they're due to air, and that's just on a simplistic level. Add in complications such as actors calling in sick, needing time off, work regulations around the child actors, rewrites, pick-ups, location work, extra shots, publicity, scene setups, late changes, any stunts, equipment failure, cast and crew failure, corpsing... Six weeks can be nothing.

thanks for that, may de due to more episodes as well, remember when Brookside started they filmed two weeks in advance and when it finished they were 6 weeks in advance.
talking of snow, remember when we got snow in December 97, Eastenders had it in February 98 which at that time of year wouldn't matter

EastEnders has always recently been six weeks in advance. It's been stated before they film enough material to easily fill out a fifth weekly edition and this has been the case for a long while now. By the time you get to September and October the extra Christmas episodes are confirmed and being planned and filmed. By the time Christmas comes round in real life, normally production is complete on everything up to the end of February, so two weeks off and back six weeks ahead of transmission again.

That correct, EastEnders has always recently been six weeks in advance but this year the gap has got much bigger, its eight weeks at the moment. At the start of the year it was nine weeks. For example the Frank stuff last week was filmed during January - over two months before it when out. Also Scott Maslen and Samantha Janus said last week, that the current storyline is build-up to this year's Christmas storyline with them and the rest of the Branning family - that gives some sort of idea of how far the show is planned, Christmas is still over eight months away but the storylines have being planned.
Oh God surely not another Branning Christmas day drama. Hollyoaks have also said they have story meetings and ideas to discuss what is going to happen up to 8monts - a year in adavance.

Well I'm not surprised. Storylines would have to planned months in advance. I agree with onetrickpony though, I don't like the sound of another Branning Christmas drama.
I've just had the most surreal dream. I was watching the TV, and all of a sudden I heard the music of Jackson 5 and members of the cast of EastEnders dancing in the market. Well, I assume it was a dream, it was far too ridiculous to be some sort of trailer for the show.
