I must admit, I'm partial to a bit of Corrie. I like the way they keep things light with a bit of humour, no matter how many people have been murdered this week.

Mrs Mrs D, in her usual contrary manner, prefers EastEnders, and opines that when it was running Brookside was the best of them all.

So which is the best soap?

I was an extra once in Brookside, the scene was set in Oxford for some reason. The other extras and I were given some instructions to walk across one of the college grounds, do some ‘acting’ then the 2nd assistant director said, ‘don’t worry too much, no one watches the feckin show anyway’.

Made us laugh.

I don't watch any now. I was a fan of Neighbours from about 1987 to 1999. And Home and Away until it went to Channel 5 which we didn't have. Eastenders was quite good back in the day, what with the bust-ups between Phil and Grant etc. I've seen snippets of soaps when my partner has them on, not something I'd like to watch. The daily grind of depressing story lines and affairs just doesn't interest me.
