You're probably not referring to Top of the Pops.

Yet again I hold my hands up. When I was in sixth form lunch time coincided with home and away followed by Neighbours. Guess who watched both of them?

As true son of Melb I would watch Neighbours, filmed not far from me. Yet never did that silly show north of boarder ever come on at my place.

DMB GO GET HELP, you so far have admited to watching all of the well know crap shows of our youth. God it was tough to be young in the 80's bad t.v to blame.

May we have the courage to change the things we can change, the patience to accept the things we can't, and the wisdom to know the difference.

My name is justme, and I'm already worried if I'll be free on Sunday to watch the Eastenders I missed last night. I'm a soapaholic, among other things.

I feel the love.

Soapaholics -- are you kidding me? Hell, I don't need no stinkin' 12-step, 2-step or side-step program. It's not a problem -- I can quit any time I want to. I just don't want to at the moment.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go check out the EastEnders website and read the latest episode guide. I need something to tide me over until I get my evening fix.

I've just finished Goldie's autobiography and I'd forgotten that he was in Eastenders. Without cheating(Faustino, I've got my eye on you) can you name Goldie's character in Eastenders?

No. Can you name which Bond film he was in (having read the biog, it shouldn't be too hard)?

He was Robbie Coltraine's driver in 'the world is not enough'. Guy Ritchie also cast him in 'Snatch' He made a film with David Bowie-Everybody loves sunshine- and he directed his own film 'Sine Tempus' (anyone seen it?)
And to answer my own question his character in Eastenders was Angel.(incidently he also had a song titled 'angel'which was dedicated to his ex-girlfriend, kimi, who died in a strange car accident- she was in a car with DJ storm and the car in front loosened a cats eye in the road and it went flying through the windscreen and killed her instantly)
