Press clippings
I have one important moan to make about this otherwise very jolly pilot panel show in which celebrity guests are challenged on their soap knowledge: WHERE ARE THE ARCHERS? It's EastEnders this and Coronation Street that. Even Neighbours and Casualty get their time in the quizzing limelight. If this makes it beyond a pilot into a series - and it does deserve to - let's have some brain-scrambling Ambridge questions in there.
Jane Anderson, Radio Times, 25th February 2012Tracy-Ann Oberman tests your soap knowledge
The actor and writer explains why she's bringing the first soap quiz show to radio with Sud's Law.
Gareth McLean, Radio Times, 25th February 2012Sud's Law was a panel game about soap operas, hosted by former EastEnder and Dirty Den slayer Tracy-Ann Oberman who also devised the show with Linda Marks.
So long as soaps continue to be incredibly popular the idea has potential, although its success will very much depend on tightening up the writing and maintaining the calibre of guests. On this occasion, it wasn't actually the Soap actors who made the programme worth a listen, but Susan Calman who amused with her impressive medical know-how gleaned from her obsession with Casualty, Holby City and Doctors.
