Coronation Sh*** is what my husband calls it.

Advantages: Are there any?
Disadvantages: Poor acting, poor storylines.

...episode I remember watching of Coronation Street, being 27 years old that is a good few years of watching the soap and I really can't remember I do remember some classic episodes with Terry Duckworth and his partner Lisa, Rita in the Kabin and Mavis and Derek oh how there have been some characters over the years and what we have now is not a patch on what Corrie used to be like! *~*Where it all began*~* Coronation Street first hit our television ...
...Rival, Hollyoaks and Emmerdale. Coronation Street now runs twice on a Monday and a Friday, the first episode being at 7.30pm and the second at 8.30pm and the midweek episode on a Wednesday at 7.30pm. *~*Popular Characters and Storylines*~* As a child of the 80's unfortunately I will be unable to comment on some of the most talked about characters of the older generation such as Ena Sharples, Elsie Tanner and Annie Walker characters I remember my ...

Review of Coronation Street

'Ello, 'Ello, 'Ello, what have we here then.

Advantages: Now on every week
Disadvantages: Can be a bit slow some weeks

The Bill For this review I have chosen to write a small round up style summary in to what The Bill is all about and rather than try and focus on storylines on a weekly basis I have written a brief summary by each cast member to give a clue as to there characters past. The Bill is an ITV drama, which is broadcast twice weekly although that is not how it originally began back in 1984. Back then, it was a seasonal show, which consisted ...
...the end of the 1987 series, ITV decided to make dramatic changes to The Bill deciding that due to its popularity they would change the show to a year-round drama consisting of two 25-minute weekly episodes. The show remained relatively unchanged apart from the cast until 1992 when they started showing hour-long specials several times during the year. These specials where such a great success that in 1993 the schedule again and introduced the new ...

Review of The Bill

MUST WATCH

Advantages: One of the best,
Disadvantages: Its the end, although its been 8 series, I miss it already

Bad girls has to be the best televsion program I have seen on television for a long time, not only that each episode is very well written and acted, you can also really get a feel about the characters and what they are going through in that tough old prison..... The thing I like the most about this program is that it is very life like and you could imagine that this is what it really is like in prison. Bad girls if you haven't already guessed it ...
...are about 12/13 episodes Bad girls is set in g-wing of a women prison HMS Larkhall. the series looks into the goings on inside the wing, in the lives of the inmates and also in the lives of the prison officers or 'screws' as they are named by the inmates. Inmates are both young and old, lesbians and straight women murderers and drug offenders, you name it they have it. You'll soon get to know what are you're favourite Characters and who you hate, ...

Review of Bad Girls

Hold me in your arms, don't let me go!

Advantages: Beautiful setting, interesting characters
Disadvantages: None

...(Neighbours being my first) is Home and Away. I think I like Neighbours the best because to me it came before Home and Away and seems like the original Australian soap and I grew up more with it. However, Home and Away is the most successful series in the history of the Logie Awards (the Australian television industry awards) having won 34 Logies compared to 30 for Neighbours. Home and Away began in 1988 and is now the second longest running Australia ...
...the show and has been home now to many different families all with unusual family connections. The school, Summer Bay high is featured quite a lot in the show too. I would say Home and Away is definitely focused on the kids in the soap, way more than the adults and probably a little bit more than Neighbours focuses on its young stars. Of course, adults still play a part in the show but I think we see much more about the kids friendships and relationships ...

Review of Home and Away

Emmerdale

Advantages: Lovely scenery and good actors
Disadvantages: On too many times a week..needs to step up it game

I have watched Emmerdale my whole life, my parents watched and therefore i have grown up with it . I really enjoy this program as I find the storylines much more realistic and the scenery much nicer than the other popular soaps. (naming none!) There are a wide rande of actors with all sorts of different backgrounds. It is gererally about a small villiage in yorkshire, although that may sound boring, there are plenty of different stroylines to keep ...
...affairs,murder(S!!!) to name but a few. Along with all programs you get the good the bad and the plain right stupid, a down side to the show is that it is on 5 days a week (it use to be 6!!) this makes it more of a chore to watch rather than for your pleasure and you dont really find yourself looking forward to it, it almost becoms routine.. ...
