"Forbidden Love" video clip update: The swimsuit competition
Apparently the bulk of the latest Forbidden Love episode deals with Gregor's budding affair with aspiring fashion photographer Rebecca ... I wouldn't really know because I was distracted by the most important contribution that the episode makes to the Christian/Olli canon: Swimsuit Fashion Shoot!
Yes, our beloved German gays (and Gregor) are stuffed into some board shorts and dragged to a lake to model for Rebecca's project, and we're treated to almost 3 solid minutes of hilarious J.C. Penney catalogue poses and horseplay. While Olli is clearly the showboat of the group, I have to ask if Gregor has a license to carry those guns ... shouldn't he be the one boxing?!
Anyway, after that the boys just kind of make fun of Gregor as he tries not to flirt with Rebecca, and at the end of the scene treat us to a rather hilarious tandem "Tchuuuuusss!" as they wave her out of No Limits. What's German for "Fairy Godfathers"?
You can see today's clip after the break, and as always, thanks to Nanna and The Gays of Daytime for the translations. Submitted by on Mon, 2008-07-14 12:08. |

Cute, cute, cute!!
That was the hottest episode I have ever seen
All I can say is WOW!!! and it was funny too. Great eye-candy!!!
I love this show. Always well written and always entertaining!
canon...
Liz, 'canon' is the
Liz,
'canon' is the accepted 'mythology' of a work of fiction.
In the broadest sense, everything that happens on VERBOTENE LIEBE or is confirmed by the writers or actors of a show is usually considered canon.
Everything 'fan-made' or not officially endorsed by the original makers is not.
A fine example would be the James Bond series: The movie 'NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN' is not considered canon, cause it was not made by the usual team responsible for the 007 series.

ok...
I believe canon was
I believe canon was originally a religious term and refers to the books of the bible that are considered accepted by the church. While the scriptures that weren't accepted came to be called apocrypha with the implication that they are somehow not real, not official.(you might have heard the expression "canon law")
Now, thats what I call eyecandy.
Ollie was rocking this one. And I must say, love that little hug Christian gives Ollie at the end of the shoot.
With men like that, I should pop to Dusseldorf more often, LOL.
Vampire Weekend!
"Tchuuuuusss!"
Three beautiful men in one scene...what a treat...
I've watched this clip multiple times already over the weekend. What a treat to have three of the hottest men on VL all in one scene shirtless and sporting just some swimming shorts.
And OMG!! Olli is not only hot as hell but his body is ripped!!. He looks like he just stepped out of GQ magazine. And whats really funny, has many have pointed out on YouTube and other sites, is that Christian is the one who is suppose to be working out like crazy for his up and coming big fight, but has the softest looking body out of the three of them. Not that there is anything wrong with that...i'm just saying.
This was a very enjoyable episode, but I can't wait for when Ollian's storyline comes to the forefront again. I think we have to wait at least a week or more before this happens, but at least they are not pushed to the back burner when their story is not featured. I'm impressed we're still treated to seeing them on screen as supporting members of other storylines.
Rebecca, who i'm still not warmed up just yet, must have some kind of splint personality thing going on since the day before she was throwing Gregor off the boat because she was so affraid he was going to try something, and one day later she's stripping freely in front of him to skinny dip in the lake. I mean... is this tween a big tease or what?! And I still think she is too young for Gregor. Makes him appear to be robbing the cradle.
You're right...
I have to agree with you, but nevertheless Thore delivers a very believable perfomance when boxing. You can tell that he already practiced this sport before his storyline on VL.
I think Gregor and Rebecca are visually a good match. I don't mind the age difference at all. She comes across as a big tease though and I'm not sure if she is good news for Gregor, who already has been burned twice before...
I didn't know that Thore
I didn't know that Thore practiced boxing in real life, that would explain why his boxing does look very authentic on VL. And although I mentioned about Christian having the softest looking body, it's by no means an insult, I was just pointing out the irony of it all. Christian is still looking very fit, it's just that I find Olli to be the most gorgeous of the three.
The actress who play's Rebecca is 18 years old in real life, and i'm not quite sure how old she is meant to be on the show, but she just looks so young. Anyway, i'm not too concerned about this coupling since it's all about Ollian for me. And sadly, it looks like we have a week or so before we get more of their storyline.
I know that
you didn't wanna insult Thore and although Christian is my fav, like I said, I completely agree with your résumé of the boy's bodies :-)
In case this is new for you:
The official VL-page states that sports Thore does are: riding horses, boxing, skiing (and hunting *urgh*) http://www.daserste.de/verboteneliebe/darsteller_dyn~darsteller,579~cm.asp
The page of his agent states that he is able to do the following sports: jujutsu, kickboxing, riding horses, tennis, diving, skiing, ballroom & salsa

Seriously, there has to be a
Rebecca
I think that Rebecca might be good for Gregor. It's not like he's Mr. Sensitive when it comes to treating the ladies. She just needed to make it clear to him that she isn't as easy a conquest as poor Miriam and the countless other girls that Mr. Bombastic has managed to lay in the last few weeks. She's interested in him but she also managed to make the ground rules clear.
Thank you very much for solving the problem with the music in this clip!
And if you're suffering from a severe case of Ollian withdrawal, like I do, here's a very short but cute clip from today's episode:

Gregor
I hope you're right.
When Gregor was in love before he rather was Mr. Sensitive. That Mr. Bombastic attitude just have come up, because he had been burned twice before. With Rebecca the story seems to be heading towards love (unlike his fling with Miriam) and with her own attitude I am still not convinced if she is good news for him. But as we only know her for a couple of episodes it may be too soon to judge....
Thx for the additional vid, Nanna!
I loved this episode!
I loved this episode! Especially Olli. Such a poseur. ;D Christian looked a little out of depth, but Olli was in his element. Well, why wouldn't he be, looking like that? The picture of him in the white cowboy hat, pointing his arm ... mmm.
Actually it's amazing they all look so good, considering the hideous swimsuits.
I love how they were goofing around, and how it looked as if Christian was almost planning to push Olli into the water at the end there. If only they hadn't edited the scene quite so quickly. Out-takes please?
I thought all three boys
I thought all three boys looked beautiful in the photoshoot. But god, Olli was just gorgeous!! <3
Btw, I dont find Rebecca to be an ideal love interest for Gregor. She seems too young and immature and it showed when she insulted Gregor right in his face about understanding why Sarah cheated on him. I really hope they'd remain just friends.
Watch the watch/es!
Yeah! I wouldn't mind out-takes!! And why did they cut so quickly at the end? I wanna know too. And where is the Thore and Jo interview outcome, hm?
I'm with you all who say that they think it's a bit odd how it is that Olli (Jo) has that ripped body whereas Christian (Thore) the über-sporty guy (in real life too it seems), is 'softer' around the waist.. ;o) Anyway, what a treat! I am agreeing too with whoever said, that straight Gregor gives out more gay vibes than his gay brother.. or something. But 'metrosexual' is probably the most fitting word for Gregor! Oh, and I too, find Rebecca far too young for him! I don't mind her character, but not for Gregor.
BY THE WAY!! I've been re-watching past VL episodes (only the Ollian bits of course), because I was intrigued by the watch Thore was wearing in Friday's episode. To me it looked VERY similar to Jo's watch (square watch and a black wristband), which I find kind of cute. Is this a conscious thing from Thore and Jo? I wonder. But seriously, in the little scene where both say 'Tschüüüss!' to Rebecca (Jasmin Lord) I have a feeling Thore wants the audience to see that they are wearing matching watches! Check it out!
So, I was watching previous VL episodes and Thore has changed watches at least twice since March or so. Either it's Thore who's an avid watch collector, or he was searching for a matching watch to the one Jo is wearing.. Cute, no? That would have been a good question for their interview!
I think – but I MIGHT be wrong! – that years back with Tom (Kay Böger) and Ulli (Andreas Stenschke) they had the matching watch thing going on too. .. Not sure if it's the actors themselves who think about this or whether it is the writers and/or props guys who plan this, or another reason altogether.. ;o) . I might be mistaken about Tom and Ulli though. But I have seen the matching watch thing on some TV gay couple .. I'm pretty sure.

Yeah. No, I don't think that would happen. Still, I'm surprised it takes that long.. ;o) Can't wait!

I don't for one minute
I don't for one minute think these two wonderful actors would be so retarded as to say something offensive to a blogg which focuses towards the gay community, and quite frankly has been an enormous asset to getting the word out and building popularity regarding their characters. I think it maybe a number of other things such as:
The questions have to be sorted through and even edited first by AE which takes time. Also, we don't know if the questions we put forward had to be translated into German, which again is time consuming. Remember, even though Jo's english is fairly good, Thore's is not so fluent. So it could take some time for them to answer back in english with both actors wanting to answer as well as possible.
Maybe AE had to go through certain channels before the questions were submitted, and then looked over throughly by Jo and Thore's agents, contractors, producers of the show, whomever the powers that be are over them.
Maybe it's just a simple matter of finding the time by both actors to answering the questions. They both could be extremely busy. Remember, their hours shooting for VL starts early and ends late.
Most past and present AE interviews are with english speaking persons which does make a world of difference with how quickly an interview can be recieved and then posted, hence the speed of the James Sutton interview.
I'm not worrying...I think when we see the answers to our questions it will be worth the wait. From all that i've read about these guys, they sound like a class act.
New clip
It's not about their love story, Christian is Judith story about her problems with Fabian, and Ollie is in Olivia's story about a kidnap http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fns395sLWJU&feature=PlayList&p=CE1738656BCC0E20&index=77
