Hey!, I thought that this group was totally dead. The show may be done, for
the time at least, but if anybody still wants to discuss... I'll hang in
there too.
Does anybody know what cathy is up to these days? I checked the
RDFmedia.com
website and saw no mention of her anymore. There is a link under
'entertainment' (it used to be under 'reality') for junkyard megawars that
refers to www.junkyard-wars.com which is now dead. More interesting is
that
Scapheap is listed under 'features'
http://www.rdfmedia.com/features/ScrapheapChallenge.asp
Where is Scrapheap currently shooting? Did production return to the UK or
are they still making it in California/USA?
