Putting Emmerdale above Eastenders was a BOLD move 😂

Considering Stenders won the last Soap awards even more so.

Nah, not having Emmerdale Farm (it'll always be that to me) over Eastenders
@maldonboy15 ай бұрын
Haven't watched Emmerdale Farm for a long time, Eastenders probably has a better outlook on modern society that people can relate to - I maybe biased living in Essex - over the years things have evolved, but Emmerdale looks to me more like a community of poseurs!

Casualty is not a soap opera. It does have a few soap opera themes to it but it's more about the side characters as in the patients and the hospital than soaps like EastEnders and Corrie. Casualty doesn't go to the British Soap Awards so therefore it's not a Soap Opera

True. It's spinoff Holby City is the soap opera. They appear to have confused the two

Eastenders is my Favourite Serial Drama but I also like The Australian Serial Dramas Neighbours and Home and Away. Also I'm Enjoying classic episodes of Brookside on STV Player.

You missed out the Scottish soap opera River City, which is set in the fictional district of Shieldinch in the west end of Glasgow, it also tackles important social issues like the other soaps do, and it has humour as well

This list should have Emergency Ward 10 because, according to the 1001 TV Series You Must Watch Before You Die book, it's TV's first successful soap opera.

I've recently done a binge-watch of old Grange Hill, and yes, it played out like a soap. It was Waterloo Road that had discrete storylines per episode.

What this list fails to mention is that quailty on most of these programs have fallen dramatically... Hollyoaks is a perfect example given its current state, cutbacks, production staff changes due to low moral... fallen ratings and a loss of primetime in favor of streaming... its likely to be axed within a year or so... it trivialises too much subjects, heck, WM did put it on the Top ten shows that need to die... Emmerdale despite a recent win failed to win audiences over its recent Joyride storyline and Corries current plot with Roy Cropper... awful. Eastenders is clearly making better effort having made a strong comeback, it DID knock both ITV soaps off the Christmas top ten last year.

Corrie was great years ago, but it really went downhill after Blanche died. It was just not as funny anymore. Plus I think the writing got bad during that time as well. I think it should have ended years ago after Blanche’s Funeral, before all the present nonsensical stuff, like Steve marrying Tracy again started.
