Oh cool.
If they start at the beginning (the old black and white episodes) maybe by the time Australia catches up they will have colour T.V's in Aus :p

Guess this is revenge for Home and Away and neighbours :D

They must have exhausted the dregs of US programming and have moved onto UK programming. :D

Only joking but I wonder what the Aussies will make of life lived out in a pub and a run down terrace of semi-detached homes with mainly dismal story lines? They may like it and hanker for a series set around a pub and a run down terrace of semi-detached homes with even more depressing story lines set in Walford rather than Weatherfield. :D

Quality programming that is, just pure, pure quality (almost as good as sons & daughters ;) )

Been there done that, Coronation St was given the big A here maybe 20/30y ago. Is Ena Sharples still alive , is Elsie Tanner still getting it from Len? ;)

No and no (all dead in real life). :D

Status Quo is on Corrie now (according to my newspaper). Come to think of it they were around at the same time as Ena, Elsie and Len. :D

I've just realised that I have never ever watched, consciously, ONE episode of ''Corrie".

All I recall is doing something else like pick up a book after seeing that ginger cat sitting on the roofs of the houses.

Same here Badge.
Never seen a single episode in my life!

It's actually quite an achievement!:)
If I was locked in a room with all the cast members, past and present, I wouldn't recognise any of them. (unless I'd seen them in something else).
I don't even have a clue what it's about, or where it's supposed to be set!:confused::confused:

It's the Scottish name for a bowl shaped geological feature usually found between 2 mountains.
Corries were formed by glaciers during the last ice age!:D

They are also the 2 blokes who wrote and sang, "Flower Of Scotland". :)
