Not watched a minute of soaps since the plane crash in Emmerdale Farm unless one of the casts die and half the news is dedicated to them

Sounds like a certain area in Liverpool I used to live near to! :whistle: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

They say, well homes under the hammers when i watched it last year that "liverpool is on the up." I guess like every town they have their rubbish, trash and ok places.

Someone that worked with me years ago had family in liverpool and it was dubbed "the land of the living dead" he said.

Liverpool has been unfairly misaligned IMO as its no more crappier than many other places possibly on a larger scale as bigger town but it does have its nicer areas - your recall Brookside, another fav I miss and saw a show last year - that Mick appeared in CS a couple of years ago
 
Anyone recall Crossroads and Benny, lol

When I was younger, Captain scarley and the Angles, lol
Thunderbirds, Batman

Bit older, the Prisoner

Til death us do part
Love thy Neibour
On the buses

The thing is we only had 3 channels and millions watched these shows.

Yes, Liverpool does have a lot of nice areas, (Childwall, Allerton, Woolton, Mossley Hill, West Derby and others), but they are not newsworthy so the media simply picks up on a crime in a certain area and blows it way out of proportion. Like they do to many other towns and cities. It has had it's problems in the past, (car plant strikes, riots in an area called Toxteth, violence at football matches etc), and will probably have problems in the future but so will many other places. Some people say Liverpool sees itself as an 'independent' state and, to a small degree, that is true. But that has only come about because like a lot of northern towns it was 'dismissed' by main governments and they had to fight to save jobs and housing. Scousers are amongst the friendliest people you could meet and will welcome you to their city but if you show disrespect or look down on them, (especially if you are from London or the home counties and speak 'posh' whilst doing so), then they will band together and tend to shun you. You come across as being friendly then you will certainly have the possibility of making friends for life. They are simply protecting what generations before have fought so hard to gain.
 
Doctors. On BBC one now. Surgery always empty, people can just walk in and see a doctor immediately, doctors making swift home visits, receptionists twiddling their thumbs. Bloke just broke his ankle, went to Hospital, all sorted and in plaster in 10 minutes. Wonderful health service!

Always enjoy our visits to Liverpool, usually for gigs, been on the NT Beatles tour twice
