I'm an addict - can you help me?
It has been months since I was last blessed enough to be able to watch Corrie and Easters. The withdrawal symptoms previously gone are now coming back.
So all you Uk siders spill the beans, I want all the gossip on what I have missed. And make it juicy.

I saw on the front of a womans magazine that Den is going to find ou about Sharon and Dennis relationship!
I'm toying with the idea that I should get someone to record it for me.......that would be sad!!

Right- here is how you manage it!
http://www.waveguide.co.uk/latest/eastenders.htm
this is a quick update - the legit site gives you pictures and a bit more information but this one keeps you ahead of the game!
For corrie there is no better site I find than
www.corrie.net
excellent updates and you can always look back at the archives for the story lines you might have missed. Also Emmerdale is on here as well for a quick read.
The nice thing about both these sites is that they do what is coming as well - so when the sister in law was over for two weeks I was able to amaze her with not only being upto date but also telling her what she was missing while she was here!
And yes quite prepared to admit I am sad, but for a lunchtime read after I have done the BBC website and World news these are a great filler once a week.
Have fun

To admit to being Extra Sad - I also read The Bill website but have ended up annoying myself as I am so far ahead of what we are watching here.

Thanks Sandra now I can see what is going on! Not as good as watching the real thing though
We don't have satelitte tv at the moment as we are renting, but when I last watched Corrie on UKTV it seemed years behind!
All this started off as hubby is back in England and he sent me a text saying how juicy Corrie was, now I am envious ( only of the TV though!)

What gets me is all this fuss about Leslie Grantham masturbating in front of a web cam as if it were far worse than murdering a taxi driver.

To anyone who are desperate for a fix of cornation st (Brisbane and surrounding areas):
Apparently, Coronation st is on Briz Tv week mornings around 6am if you can manage to get a good reception ( my reception to this channel is not very good at the best of times) I don't know how old the cornation programmes are though, you could set the VCR to record it if your already on the road to work.. I've never watched the corri on there, but If you haven't watched Briz tv yet .. it's a must for a laugh. It is really is very low budget, I think it's run by students.. full of cheap"homemade"adversments and such. Mind you, they do have some good motor sport programmes on there at weekends.. which I've watched a couple of times, can't remember if it's saturday or Sunday afternoon they are on... It will give you information to the motorsport events around Brisbane.

I have to say I would have loved to see the 'catfight' between Eileen and Gail in Corrie (when Todd tells SarahLou that he is gay!!)...quality TV! Reading about it on the net just isn't the same.
I can't get used to Aussie TV, and instead of watching soaps, I find I am addicted to the reality shows e.g. The Apprentice, The Block, American Idol, My Restaurant Rules etc!!!!

I am exactly the same. I love The Apprentice, American Idol and My Restaurant rules. I can't get into Neighbours or Home and Away either. Big Brother is dull at the moment though it might take off.
Bring back Survivor and The Hot house!!!

Good to know I'm not alone!! I have followed American Idol from the start, when I was in Manchester, saw it when I went home to Ireland for a few weeks, caught it in Hong Kong when we stopped off there and now I'm in Australia I won't miss it!! Fantasia is bound to win.... she's brilliant!!
