"I'm back watching Prisoner cell block H for the second time on channel 5 Select.
Even though its absolute nonsense, it's like a drug to me I can't get enough of it  "
Is that the original Prisoner cell block H??? |

I've never been into soaps.
Inspired by Buffy, my wife got into Passions - Spike's favourite soap (and a real show). I watched some of those episodes, and it was pretty insane, with witches and a talking doll named Timmy. 🤣 |

Oh my..... I haven't watched that in years! Me and a school friend were obsessed with it, the actress who played the Freak came to our city for an autograph signing, we dodged school went to the shopping centre where she was and then didn't approach her because she looked just as terrifying in real life as she did on tv, we were so scared! I'm going to have to watch it relive my youth! |

"Also the Australia ones
Neighbours
Home and away
"
The episode where Plain Jane Super Brain removed her glasses, shook her hair free and miraculously turned into a beauty? 
Some of us might have already noticed that about her   |

Wherever the wind takes me |
I remember:
The the High Road
Country Practice (Australian)
The Sullivans (Australian)
Sons and Daughters (Australia)
My Nan loved them and I’d watch them with her if she was looking after me when I was poorly.

I always remember my Gran watching the American soaps like Days of Our Lives and Bold and the Beautiful on Channel 5 when I went to visit her.
I always thought it was funny seeing the contrast between the British and American ones |

Have you ever seen any foreign speaking ones?
They're ridiculous.
My mum used to watch an Indian one.
There's love triangles, corrupt cops, people resurrected from the dead from being mauled by a man-eating tiger & mother-in-laws from hell in just one episode. |

""Soap" was a comedy soap opera from the 70's, it's being repeated now on Rewind tv. Still quite funny after all these years. Benson the butler,is the star he got his own spin off series I think."
Used to love Soap.
That's how Billy Crystal got his big break. |

"howards way, great theme tune for that one. though sailing was the first attraction to that soap
Was it a soap though ? Don't think so"
it was dubbed as the bbc's answer to dallas, falcons crest and knotts landing
a glamourous cast, setting etc. |
