When he's out of prison, will David Platt stay around the Street, given that everyone hates him ?
Who else is sick of the Michelle/Ryan/Alex scenario ? It's like one of these ridiculous rambling US films that hasn't beginning, middle or end at this stage.
Looking forward to your comments.

Lost interest when they went from two episodes a week to three. And it stopped being funny.

Who gives a flying fuck?

You're an angry man, Liq.

David Platt goes to prison? Aw fuck. I knew I shouldn't have opened this. We're 8 months behind over here.

Me, you bone-headed cockney cunt.

I very nearly started a Corrie thread last week, so good has it been recently. The Roy Cropper batgate storyline has been hilarious, with marvellous cameos from Beckeh in the caff. The chemistry between those two is superb, proper laugh out loud funny at times.

As for David, he'll stay around, I reckon. He's been the best character in it for a year or so. I'm not sure how good he'll be if he matures whilst in the clink, half of the fun was in his unrelenting evil. I have high hopes for his shed-dwelling mate, Darryl, however.

The vast difference in quality between Corrie and Eastenders is never more obvious than on the Monday night soap sandwich. That half hour between the two Corrie episodes seems to drag like a mother-fucker. And we all know what they drag like.

Do what I do, EIM, and turn over for University Challenge in that half hour.

GO has never been more right than he is on this thread.

If 'Eastenders' is on one of it's good plot runs (like the Max & Tanya one recently) it's watchable but 'Coronation Street' is a dessicated husk of the show it used to be.

The best thing about selling my soul to Murdoch for the price of a Sky+ box, is that I never EVER have to watch shit like Coronation Street or Eastenders.

You never did when you only had terrestrial

"Neighbours" is hotting up

Everybody on this thread bar The Liquidator should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

I suspect that Liquidator has 'Eastenders' sympathies though.

I hate this cultural snobbery that makes out that it is wrong to indulge in some mindless TV watching occasionally. It is a form of meditation

Also "Neighbour" has hot babes in swim suits

You wash your mouth out right this instant young man.

Perhaps, I should do better than skimread if I am going to make sweeping generalisations.

There's nothing wrong with indulging in mindless television watching. I watch Most Haunted, for fucks sake. There are limits though. And soap operas, especially Corrie and S'enders turn your tv into the shit-pump it so obviously longs to be, spurting brain destroying effluent all over your living room.
I'd seriously rather watch the testcard than hear another faux cockernee sparra trying to polish a steaming turd on their way to a guest shot on "I'm a celebrity dancing queen on ice mary poppins cunt."
