[QUOTE="ArchieLucasCarringtonEwing1989, post: 58373, member: 95"] I agree with these answers, thanks. I don't understand why Crossroads was axed in the first place, it was no worse or better than other soaps at the time. Crossroads being axed was probably what saved Emmerdale in 1989 [USER=673]@Carrie Fairchild[/USER] What turned most Crossroads viewers in the end was the needless axing of long serving characters in the mid 1980s and the fact that Crossroads was so far removed from its concept by 1988 compared to how it was in 1981 didn't help. The Kings Oak concept might've worked had some of the older characters were still around like the Hunters, Diane, Benny etc. [/QUOTE]
