Are you watching it on-line?! They've finally developed/renovated the old set and sold the houses. It was derelict for years, creepy. (Look on you tube at 'Brookside close' tour).

You can watch it on 4ondemand but this is 16 if the best episodes compiled onto two discs. Was only £7, Simon's about to commit suicide with Terry who is rescued by Barry Smile

Oh, I loved Damon Brookside. I thought the houses were lovely. - Little did I realise the rambling Victorian thing I grew up in was worth a lot more. I thought new builds with adjoining garages were so, well, brilliant.

HNY and all that.

Oh I loved Brookside. Although it definitely deteriorated after the brilliant body under the patio story (I was sooooo shocked when Mandy and Beth were sent to prison) and ended up just being bloody ridiculous.

But the days of the Grants, Heather Haversham, Harry Cross et al were great.
