It's in all the soap previews this week. I'm leaping ahead a bit, because of course we're a week behind with the storylines after the tragic events in Cumbria. But it's pretty clear that one way or another, Underworld will be requiring a new home. Nick approaches Peter about renting "Turner's" from him, and after Peter refuses, Leanne goes behind his back, and tells Nick that Grandad George is willing to do a deal with him. I'm so hoping that this means we'll see George and Eve again in the flesh so to speak, long black coats and all, and that they'll have a really juicy storyline.
Unfortunately, it also seems to signal the beginning of trouble for Peter and Leanne.
Why didnt george just sell the bar as a going concern? Why rip out all the brand new fittings and change the use just to turn it into a factory? another landlord on the street could be interesting. I would like to see George back but I doubt if he will be.
ReplyDelete@David Cameroon - true, the writers should get some outside advice on how business is done in the real world so that there's a bit more accuracy injected in a soap opera that supposedly is about working class people who run bars, garages, knicker factories, corner stores and greasy spoon diners...
ReplyDeleteI was watching an old episode of Lovejoy the other day and came across a very young-looking Granddad George. He was rather dashing in his youth.
