Terrible acting

Cheap sets

Crazy plot lines

But I loved it, a cult classic?

It even had an evil twin in it.
And people coming back from the dead.

It was criminal to take it away. Do you remember how long it took for Ricardo to put the tape of his fiance and Antonio into the video and press play. Must have been at least 10 episodes

ChirpyGirl · 24/08/2008 19:41

I missed the last episode!!!!! I was abroad and my housemates didn't realise it was going to end (wasn't it cancelled suddenly or something, god knows why...)
I have added Zone Romantica Channel to my favourites on Sky purely to see if they will have it, I mean, they have Days of Our Lives and loads of other tosh.

But, can we only have it back if we have the channel 5 guy announcing it, he was great!

ChirpyGirl · 24/08/2008 19:43

Oh, and I meant to add this

bobsyouruncle · 24/08/2008 19:43

I loved that programme

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 19:45

Good plan chirpy. Maybe it will become available on download. People used to sell dvds of the whole of Prisoner cell block H on ebay.

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 19:51

OMG you can get sunset beach on ebay.

arthursmum · 24/08/2008 19:53

I thought I was the only one who loved this show! I had the most overwhelming crush on the lovely Cole. It wouldn't be the same if you didn't have the Five announcer being sarcastic over the closing credits though...

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 19:55

My dh looks like Cole [brag emoticon]

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 19:56

At least he did 15 years ago. He still has Cole dimples though.

YANBU

I particularly loved the use of monologues - hilarious.

TheOldestCat · 24/08/2008 19:56

bagofhammers - does your DH have an evil twin?

ChirpyGirl · 24/08/2008 19:57

No. Fucking. Way

(sorry, but had to check!)

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 19:58

I never though of that. I will have to be careful if he suggests any boating trips.

ChirpyGirl · 24/08/2008 19:58

Hmmm..should I spend 70 quid of my (extremely small) inheritance on Sunset Beach or my first professional haircut in 2 years.

Now that's a dilemma!

bagofhammers · 24/08/2008 20:04

You would seriously rather get your hair cut than watch Virginia, Vanessa and the turkey baster. You can't even see your own hair.

Wendyjayb · 24/08/2008 22:58

YANBU, it was the best programme on telly!!!!

BoysAreLikeDogs · 24/08/2008 23:03

emj23 · 24/08/2008 23:04

That show was freakin awesome. They had an impotence pill called Niagra. Genius.

giraffescantdancethetango · 24/08/2008 23:58

oh god I remember doing my standard grades when that was on and watching it during my study mornings

ChirpyGirl · 25/08/2008 00:08

Ooh, now I feel old!

MadameOvary · 25/08/2008 00:22

I LOVED this, I even bought a tiny TV so I could watch it in my study room while at Uni. I posted on the forum too as Queen Bitch (saddo emoticom). Remember Ricardo's mother saying Eeeecha and Meeecho all the time????
