Jason Donovan happy with Echo Beach role.
Jason Donovan has said he is happy with his role in the new ITV TV drama Echo Beach which also stars Martine McCutcheon and Hugo Speer. Echo Beach which is set in and around the Cornish seaside and starts on ITV1 Thursday at 9.30pm. Probably will get the dire TV channel some more viewers if only for the initial interest although given there awful production abilities it'll die out pretty fast. 
Jason Donovan speaking to the Daily Record said "It's the beach, it's me, it's surfing, it's blonde hair and blue eyes. It's very me. I'm nearly 40. I look back with fond memories. There's not a day when I can escape those references to Neighbours or Kylie but why would I want to? I'm proud of all that. Life's short, f****** enjoy it. I think you should never start taking yourself too seriously. I read Echo Beach and thought, 'yeah' and then I read Moving Wallpaper and thought, 'this is for me'. They work very well together but can stand up on their own. It's a potent mix. If it was a straight-up soap I'd think harder about it. But TV exposure is something I had to have in order to get into hearts and minds and lift the currency up a little bit to be able to do to other things. I'd love to be having hit records all the time but life doesn't work like that."
