I've just made a range of coronation street greeting cards called 'corrie'. They'll be in the shop's soon kids!

[na§tee]

did you know that sooooo many people back in the day used to watch coronation street every week that when there was a commercial break they used to record nationally sharp drops in water, um, levels (or something) when people went to use the toilet, and sharp peaks in electricity levels when everyone went to switch on the kettle for another round of tea. iz true! the professor at my film/tv department was the soap guru in television academia.

[Pres Zount]

They measure electricity in megawatts. It would have had to be a BILLION kettles being flicked on to register on any kind of graph.

That said, I bet it's true. I just made that up anyway. Just to argue.

[icy manipulator]

what's been running longer? coronation street or doctor who? ignore the 15 year gap

anyways, neighbour shits all over it (y)
