    I came up with an end to any soap opera, the Yanks are having a test firing of a ballistic missile in the Med, they put the wrong coordinates and bye bye Albert Square, Hollyoaks or whichever soap you want to destroy.

    Modern day versions of soaps are hard to tolerate, 6 or 7 episodes a week, predictable and sensational story lines and trite dialogue.

    But there was a time when the soaps were character driven with stories written for Elsie Tanner, Bet Lynch etc and were properly gritty realistic drama. Something else that was better when the world was black and white. :oops: Chr*st I feel ancient.

    However, bad as the soaps are, live and let live. The unforgivable abominations are celebrity mags like OK and their ilk. Who the hell are the people in them and why the f*ck should I care whether they've lost 2 stone, gained 2 stone, had a breakdown or a break up, been arrested, got drunk or got laid. These publications are a creeping evil sucking the intelligence out of the generation of (largely females) people reading them.

    Cheers old bean, goodness gracious me my feet hurt.

    I have every El Dorado episode on DVD because of Pilar :P Thats a fib. I think women watch Soaps as a protest at the amount of Sport we (just me then :oops: ) watch.
