soap

I wanted this vampire soap opera to be over, but we are stuck somewhere between the living and the dead.

The soap, which is set in the fictional town of Letherbridge, has followed the lives of staff and patients of a Midlands GP practice, for 24 years.

He was known for roles on stage and screeen including in TV sitcoms Not Going Out and Bedtime, dramas like Bleak House and Gentleman Jack, and soaps Coronation Street and EastEnders.

In other words, what might have seemed like a mutually convenient layby into which Ms Gray could be shunted, ended up perpetuating a rather public soap opera.

His breakout role in a popular soap opera titled “Love and Truth” in 1984 led to a heady career as a national heartthrob.
