[QUOTE="cobbles, post: 259219, member: 5138"] Yeah we're a bit unusual in the UK in that these shows are on in Prime Time and consistently some of the highest rated shows on telly (at least until very recently for EastEnders, Corrie still holding up (although it hasn't topped the chart yet this year with so many big ticket entertainment and drama shows)- (as I'm sure you're aware with your nod to trepidation in touching a golden goose of British television.) The late 90s is widely considered a pretty poor era of the show depending on the exact timeframe. The heydeys being the late 70s and 80s and the mid-noughties for entirely different reasons, so you probably chose a pretty bad time to jump in. It's 6 episodes a week now as well!! Interestingly it rated better when it briefly returned to 3 due to Covid, so it's not just foreign fans irked by the excessive number of episodes. [/QUOTE]
