Was that humour? Because I quite clearly said "fictional." I thought you saying "about half of us" lent itself to humour so I could be wrong :S

Anyway.

hears to corri!! i must say i love it, when i was younger my best friend and her whole family we british, and when ever i went over it would be on, thats how i got hooked, i started because i mostly just liked listening to the accents, but then i started to get realy involved. i like it cause they're obviously just regular people with crappy lives, just like the rest of us, which realy humanizes the show and makes it somuch more realistic. un like the ridiculace north american soaps, where they're all super rich, super models who live in huge fancy condos in beaverly hills that they could never in a million years afford because they never have aney aparent job, and every week they reinact the same lame plot line from the week before, only sometimes the mix it up a little, like" oh, you died last week? right well this week we'll reincarnate you as your evil twin who is on a murderous rampage, and is carring the child of Dr drake Ramono, and then she can die this week" bleh! no thanks, i'll take corination street aney day

Oi, Skullsplitter.

I said we're not depraved. This is true.
About half of us do have crappy lives and spend a lot of the time in pubs. You said is wasn't a realistic presentation of life in England in the North, I'd say a lot of it is (minus strange serial killers and the weirder storylines).

Mind, Emmerdale's more like where I live

Oh dear. *shakes head*

I have no soap to compare my town to. Thank god.

Byker Grove?

Ah..yeah, that works, doesn't it? Not a soap, but meh. *shrug* There was this really incredibly rubbish Geordie soap thingy called Quayside years ago. Afternoon soap thing. No one remembers it. It probably didn't exist.

Byker Grove is a 'teen drama' which is just 'immature soap'.
Very scary.
What happened with the slimy spanish date rape guy? Who was also REALLY UGLY.

Oh right, yeah I get your point.

I don't know, I can't remember. All I remember is that Sarah saw him using the same lines on this other girl that he used on her. *shrug* As you can tell, it wasn't very memorable.

Bradley: "I think I might be gay!"

suprising how many people at school were talking about that, so more people than I thought we're watching that episode.

Andrew, that was one of the funniest things I've seen on TV all year.

Plus, I'd been shouting 'I THINK I MIGHT BE GAY' whenever he opened his mouth for the entire episode.

Yeah, the only episode of the series I watch and it has the best line ever! Pure fluke. I burst out laughing when he said that.

Really? It's the only episode I watched too. How odd.
I haven't seen it for like, 4 years and then I watched that one. Had to keep asking my brother who the hell everyone was. Pure comedy gold.

Well, first of all, I said as a portrayal of english people. Still... you support my point I guess - If you have a "crap" life, why would you want to watch other people who have equally "crap" lives? I dont understand.


Still....

All my friends talked about bradley. I think his accent lent itself brilliantly to the comedic effect of the whole thing

I like this show, it's funny, but hard to follow if you've just started watching.

Ohh, what an episode today, bradley getting stick about his potential homosexuality from village bigot and proud teenage impregnation expert, twinshisface!
