I didnt see it, but eastendes is the best. Nothing can compare. I stopped watching coronation street when someone stole dereks gnome. A yawn fest it had become.

you probably liked Emmerdale too though?

Wasn't an Emmerdale fan, although my dad loved it. Eastenders is such crap…when does something good ever happen? At least in Cora' something happy goes on once in while. Vera and Jack Duckworth are worth watching on their own though, they should have their own sitcom, something like the Royle Family, which is just like watching home movies for me but it's soooooooooo friggin hilarious.

A manc mum and scouse dad!!!! what more could you ask for really.

Well, I started to write this insanely long response using as many british-english words I could think of, but I got bored of it really fast - kind of like hanging around you for more than 30 minutes.

They havent shown are you being served on British TV in 15 years, why they show it in America is beyond me.

what, what?
What's not to understand? Just put a load of shit in you mouth and talk….sounds just like the Mancunian accent! ;) In all seriousness, I think most Americans can understand the posh London accent because of films and television. The accents from the midlands and north are harder to understand. And the accent seems to change every 30 miles. I won't even get into the Scottish accent!

I missed this before I posted above - one of two posts that made me laugh out loud today.

the other was Lulu's "cheers" reply. Well done.
Does that have the one with the daughter whose Dad left when she was very young, and then they reunite later on? The Dad lives out on a farm.

Then there's some other show with Denche (sp?) and two daughters.
