The UK's longest running 'soap' opera Coronation Street has effectively 'sacked' butcher Asheley Peacock, his on-screen wife and the child actors playing their sons. According to the popular press, they went to see the new producer to see if they could effectively be given a new storyeline, an argument developed and they were told there services were no longer required!

One of the things that surprised me when I went back for my first visit after 16 years - was that the programme was still on and that many people seemed to be quite happy to sit down and watch it!! It seemed like they were stuck in a time warp, lol |

I watch 'Egg Heads' and am surprised that one of them has watched it since it started, but am more surprised that Judith Keppel who won a million pounds on who wants to be a millionaire is a follower of 'Eastenders' |
