[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 357776, member: 673"] Yes. I commented somewhere on here before that I’m sure certain TV license payers were thinking WTF is this dross that we’re paying for on our primetime schedules during stuff like Rita or the UFO. Someone also mentioned that the reason [I]Dynasty[/I] and [I]The Colbys[/I] shared that rotating time slot when [I]Dallas[/I] returned to the schedules is because the BBC couldn’t justify giving three primetime hours a week over to US soaps. If anything, [I]EastEnders[/I] was created to bolster the schedule that [I]Dallas[/I] was part of, in order to add to the BBC’s success, rather than become competition for each other. And with [I]Neighbours [/I]airing in daytime, it wasn’t even in the same orbit as [I]Dallas [/I]as far as I can tell. [/QUOTE]
