Anyone watch that episode? So sad. Will be sorry to see Tanya go.

Night owl you made me laugh out loud with your comments about being buried alivesmile if someone did that to me I wouldn't want to be in the same country never mind the same bedhmm

Eastenders is so miserable I stopped watching ages ago. Give me Corrie every time smile

She's a headmistress! And she is still. smile

Babs it's Corrie for me too, although I don't like the fact that evil David has returned and what on earth are they doing to Roy shock

j08 Sat 29-Jun-13 22:30:44

It doesn't have to either/or. You can watch both! hmm

I do. smile

So do I (obviously). After 12 years of working shifts and not being able to keep up with the soaps I am making up for lost time grin

I have only watched one episode of Corrie, ages ago don't know why I never bothered again, probably because I was out on the evenings it was on.

I enjoyed that fluffy programme about a women only taxi firm and I thought Lauren was really well acted.

Printmiss I drive DH bonkers by continually asking who is looking after Oscar! And, how did Tanya manage to sell her business so quickly? And, how does that headmistress have enough time to be all round the square at lunchtimes? And, why does she live in a tatty rented flat? And, don't you just love Abby's boyfriend (name had gone - Jamie?)

Addict - moi - never grin

of course not kittylester - it just happens to be on!

j08 Sun 30-Jun-13 12:26:41

I can't think of his name either. hmm

j08 Sun 30-Jun-13 12:27:37

It's bugging me. Will NOT go on website. WILL remember.

Jamie's long demised.

As well as all the other above impossibilities, I couldn't help thinking about the length of time the cab was parked outside the door with the meter ticking, racking up a huge sum. Anyone with any sense finishes packing, then calls the cab when they are absolutely ready to go, But the writers give soap characters fat wallets when it suits the storyline.

Jay - couldn't stand it - looked it up! grin

By the way - Masood is still mine blush

j08 Sun 30-Jun-13 15:23:30

That's it! grin

Jack is the only gorgeous one.

There are gransnetters who watch east Enders and coronation street and read and go on Granny net and are on Facebook and twitter and read game of thrones and watch Merlin ans listen to the Archers and say what's on Mumsnet and think Ted.com is brilliant. I have 24 hours in a day same as every one else so what are they on? I've had enough of feeling inadequate. I need to know.

kittylester Sun 30-Jun-13 18:09:52

Not me, Stansgran, Stenders and Holby are on serieslink on the Skybox anything else is a bonus!! Though GN takes up a fair amount of any available time grin

The only soaps I watch are Eastenders, Neighbours and Home and Away, and the latter 2 don`t take up a lot of time, especially if recorded, and fast forwarded through credits and adverts. And I read a lot and come on here because my housekeeping skills are about NIL!
