Well I used to love Heartbreak High when it had Rivers in it, with his clandestine fumblings with the English teacher...those poetry readings fairly sizzled as beauty (well) tamed the beast that was Peter Rivers. What happened to that guy I wonder?

NEIGHBOURS at it's zenith, Des, Daphne, Mike, (Guy Pearce) the labrador whose name escapes me, Scott and Charlene etc.

There was a much older soap I used to watch, a period piece, 'The Sullivans' that was good as well.

I don't watch any soaps now. I can't afford any more obsessions over and above the ones I already have!

I'm sorry but it has to be Sons & Daughters - Don't really remember it much just that i used to love it when i was young x

I used to love Neighbours but stopped watching when the Scully's came in - I ALWAYS used to cry when they waved goodbye out the back of the yellow cab x so sad xxx

Don't watch either of them very much now, Skip - tend not to be home from work in time to see them . . . . . . but Neighbours still has a special place in my heart!

When I was younger I used to love Home and Away, but the new version is no where near as good! (or maybe I am just looking through rose tinted glasses) I feel pity for the people who never saw the old version, you dont know what you missed!

Now, Neighbours is far far better, although I havent watched either for a while.

Neighbours for me

Hey, thanks for your responses !!! I never realised you guys got some of those earlier soaps/ I'd have to say Neighbours but only because its on just before Big Bro and Oz Idol, otherwise I probably wouldn't see it.
