EasyTarget Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Yes, yes, it's a soap but I've watched it on and off for 14 years and I think it's the best one haha. Most of the cast can actually act unlike another couple soaps I can think of and it's really funny at times too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasyTarget Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Same here Wayne. Eastenders and Hollyoaks are beyond a joke now, half the actors can't do their jobs and they just copy storylines already done. I don't wach Emmerdale but if my grandparents have it on when I'm there I can stay in the room. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanguis Dominus Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 It'd be "Plonounth" if he had a lisp, too. I jus' don't get the point in soaps. They're just TV shows, about people acting out bog-standard, every-day life. It's the same thing as just walking outside and having a look around, from the safety of your own couch. It's like a fictional alternative to real life, only much smaller. Much rather stick on an episode of The Unit, or Stargate, or CSI. Hell, even Rainbow. 'Least that's got funny double entendres and flashy colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Stop coming back to the thread if you all hate it so much. Okay. I shall only return if Sanguis debates the linguistic skills of the Chinese guy with a Speech Impediment/Lisp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguis Dominus Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 This is a discussion thread about Coronation Street, and we're discussing Coronation Street, and by extension, the whole Soap genre. Until we start talking about crazy Chinese dudes who can't say stuff properly. Which, let's face it, is much more fun! The Chinese and Japanese often mistranslate words containing "R" to contain "L" instead and vice versa. "Critical " becomes "Clitical", Clap your hands" becomes "Crap your hands." and so on. If he has a lisp, "Pronounced" becomes "Pronounthed" So a combination of the two, you end up with "Plonounthed". Fate was not smiling on the speech impaired Chinese people when that word was invented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
