If I ever get my hands on a time machine, I'm heading back to 1967 in order to let Mrs Peel know that she is needed (for sexual purposes):

I would like to show Florence Welch that I've "got the love" (in addition to Herculean sexual stamina):

If Marina Diamandis actually were a robot, I'd program her to do naughty things to me:

If Ellie Goulding were to catch a glimpse of my larger than average sized penis, she'd be left "starry eyed":

Not even Michelle Ryan?

'Fraid not.

The whole cast (past and present) is tainted by the awfulness of the show.

Have you ever watched it? The worst thing about it and soaps in general is they're on every nigtht and the quality does get thinned out. But when theyre good they are excellent, as in funny mostly.

I used to watch it until about 3 years ago.

I still watch Corrie. If you compare the script in Corrie to that in EastEnders you can see which has the better, most talented writers.

When EE tries to be funny it's embarrassing. As Ally Ross is The Sun TV review points out EE's attempts at humour mainly involve various animals on the loose in the square.

Plus, you get at least 3 speeches in each episode which start 'when I was younger.........' and then go on and reminisce about some daft, implausible story of eating fish and chips on the pier at Southend with seagulls landing on their heads, or something.

Hate the whole bloody show. With a passion.

Hah that's true but I still enjoy it.

And every woman is a 'strong, no nonsense' character. And every man is either an idiot or some suave villain.

I remember when Johnny Allen was in it. Every time anyone mentioned him they had to use his full name in a fearful tone.

Becky in Coronation St:

Not the best looking and her character is very chav-bound, but I find her really sexy. She's a brilliant performer.

EastEnders has had one of Coronation Street's main writers for about a year, so that doesn't really make sense. ;)

Look, I think we can all agree that TV soaps are terrible and everyone should be ashamed of watching them. Apart from Shortland Street.

I think all TV soaps are terrible except the ones I watch. :)

Dr Who has picked up no end though. Or is that not so? :)

Eastenders is hacky, clichéd and horribly acted. These three things make me laugh no end and that's why I enjoy it. Plus, I like looking at Roxy - not her tattoo though.

Doctor Who is not a soap, you numpty!

It makes her look a bit butch somehow. Or maybe that's just the silly outfits they put her in.

You're thinking of Pat.

She is the queen* of butch.

*king.

I would say that Dr Who has a number of soapy qualities! :)
