Ant-Shimmin Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 With Jimmy Corkhill, Ron Dixon, Jaqui Corkhill, Lindsay, Murray Family and not forgetting Sinbad! Seriously it was un-believeable, the best show on tele in a long time and they stopped it. Crazy Jimmy was the best, going through the Mersey tunnel to get to Newcastle, Rofls...
KKOB Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 All soaps bar Neighbours and Hollyoaks should be cast into heeeelllllllllllla!
welsh_gamer Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Brookside was ace! Always watched it discreetly at the time, so my mum didn't know I was watching an 'adult' soap. My best and most remembered story from the show, is when Bar Brookie blew up due to a gas leak. Made me paranoid about gas at the time! The actor who plays Jimmy Corkill is acting at my local theatre's pantomine this Christmas. Defo gonna go see, and try and grab an autograph
Ant-Shimmin Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 Is it true that Jimmy Corkhill is gay and is seeing Fred The Weatherman off This Morning... Or is that an Urban Myth :| Either way it was amazing, and when Bar Brookie blew up that grabbed my attention so badly, especially when they where gonna cut Sinbad's arm or leg off to get to Kylie!
Roostophe Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 My response to this thread is an impression of The Scousers from Harry Enfield: (Puts on Scouse accent) "Y'wot? Y'wot? Y'wot" I never watched it, as I didn't and I still don't care about soaps because all we Midlanders had was Crossroads, and that was naff, especially the new version, which was all a dream, A FECKIN' DREAM! Do all Scousers love Brookside like all Brummies love Ozzy Osbourne?

Do all Scousers love Brookside like all Brummies love Ozzy Osbourne? I don't know to be honest, the general consensus is if you didn't like the program you at least shared some love for Jimmy Corkhill. I loved Brookie, it was the Scouse "Lost"
Sparko Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Sinbad was always my favourite, and now he's in Coronation Street! Who cares if he's playing a different character, he's still fat and jolly and that's what counts Coronation Street is really the only soap I watch, couldn't be bothered with the rest.
Paj! Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Neighbours will alwys be my fave soap. I don't watch soaps though, I prefer dramas.
4q2 Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 I detest all soaps.... Although my feelings may change if Chris Morris ever decides to produce one.
Ashley Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 the best show on tele in a long time Do you not watch television?
Kurtle Squad Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Brookside was actually pretty awesome; and although it lost its way towards the end, I remember thinking it was pretty good (as a kid), and it kept with characters instead of having all new ones ever month *cougheastenderscough*; though the old Eastenders were better from what I remember. Never watched it really the last few years.
Mikey Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 All soaps bar Neighbours and Hollyoaks should be cast into heeeelllllllllllla! Every time Hollyoaks comes on to the TV, I feel like violently assaulting the cast members. I have such a deep hatred for that show, and I don't even know why.
Kurtle Squad Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Every time Hollyoaks comes on to the TV, I feel like violently assaulting the cast members. I have such a deep hatred for that show, and I don't even know why. Because they're 30 year olds playing 15 year olds?

I have such a deep hatred for that show, and I don't even know why. Amen to that, all the girls watch it when they probably don't even like it.. It's chav heaven and it's shite
The Peeps Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Only good thing about Brookside was the theme tune Hollyoaks is about 1 million times worse though
Mikey Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Amen to that, all the girls watch it when they probably don't even like it.. It's chav heaven and it's shite Tru dat. Every girl I know likes it too.
Ant-Shimmin Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 Tru dat. Every girl I know likes it too. Some ofthem might genually like it, the others just watch it to fit in... I fucking hate it Bring Back Jimmy Corkhill!
Jon Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 The only good thing about brookside was Jennifer Ellison.
mcj metroid Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Ha i really love that theme *watches youtube 1987 intro* haven't heard it in years.
Zechs Merquise Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 The only good thing about brookside was Jennifer Ellison. hell yeah! That really was the only good thing about Brookside!
