Are any of them mentioning it in their storylines?

Yes I think it was Corrie that somebody mentioned washing hands thoroughly

I watch Eastenders and didn't notice any reference to it. Having said that the episodes are filmed in advance so maybe they'll bring things in in time.

Also, becuase of the need for isolation I wonder if a lot of cast and crew just won't turn up for filming! And whether storylines will all be based in the homes of Albert Square without people going out and about/down the Vic...

I wonder how they're going to manage? They can't work from home! Will storylines change so nobody's touching? I should start watching just to see what they're doing.

Eastenders often film little scenes about current events and shoe horn them in (they are always pretty terrible tbh).

However I think with this they will probably ignore it as soaps can't be too realistic or else who would watch? I don't want to read about corona all day then watch it be discussed in a soap at night whem Im trying to relax.

Yes I watch Nivea. (Imperial Leather is nice to look at too though)
I always carry one with me so I can watch it.
