UAE just got bolder as the stars of the oldest daily soap 'The Bold and the Beautiful', have decided to capture the true essence of the country and make it an forgettable part of the series.

During a press conference in Dubai, Executive Producer Bradley P Bell revealed his plans and the locations they will be shooting at, "Atlantis, The Palm and Burj Khalifa will be the main locations of the shoot along with Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi."

"We want to highlight the growth of this place and the lifestyle, show the hotspots," Bradley added.

Starting from Monday, the series will be shot over three days with the most famous and loved stars: Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke Logan Forrester), Don Diamont (Bill Spencer) and Thorsten Kaye (Ridge Forrester).

So what brought them to Dubai?

Actor Katherine Kelly Lang


For fans of Katherine this may come as a big surprise that the star was intending to participate in the Abu Dhabi triathlon for which she practised quite hard.

Hence, came the idea and the team flew to UAE to shoot some "unforgettable sequences" as Bradley quips.
 
The show has entered the Guinness Book of World Record for completing over 7,000 episodes in a span of 27 years and 27 seasons. Definitely the stars had loads to share.

Actor Don Diamont


Don being his usual self jumped on to let the audience know what kept him hooked on to B&B, "I simply loved shooting on different locations".

He expressed how much he adored Bradley for "making the show his own" and keeping the script upbeat.

But Katherine, who has been longest on the show had a rather different perspective, "I like the way Bradley gave the show a new look and script at times became fast. Sometimes too fast for my liking but it's okay as long as the audience loved it."

At that point, Bradley interjected and said, "She is frustrated because she has had eight husbands."

From all that the stars have done here Katherine has enjoyed shopping, seeing the Arabian horses, and knowing the culture and heritage the most. She wishes to visit the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi.

Actor Thorsten Kaye


Actor Don highly recommends the Dubai Mall as a place to see, while Thorsten loved the Aqua Venture.
