Well it actually all started to come together because of you [Rob of the Cult team]. I was at Eclipse, which was a Buffy and Angel convention here in London last summer, and you mentioned that the BBC wanted to do something that was period costume drama, but supernatural.

I had happened to have an idea floating around called Ghosts of Hollywood, about old-time Hollywood and things like that, and Amber and I had talked about that in the past. As soon as we started talking about it, [I went to a meeting] to discuss those things, and I think that after speaking to Amber I convinced everybody not necessarily that our idea was better, but our idea would be more fun.
