Wasn't there a soap with a Pilar character in years ago? I want to say the one set abroad...Spain maybe? With lots of ex pats and people from other European countries.....someone died??? Off to google I go....

I think it’s all the yoga that Meghan does that makes her complexion looks so healthy .

Apparently it's a Massimo Dutti coat. Annoyingly they only go up to a size 14 Hmm

Eldorado!

frugalkitty · 08/01/2020 17:49

It was Eldorado!! 1992-3. Blimey that makes me feel old.

Horsemad · 08/01/2020 17:50

@frugalkitty - was it Eldorado? 🤔

frugalkitty · 08/01/2020 17:50

Ooh cross post! Gold star to you My Grin

Horsemad · 08/01/2020 17:50

Haha, crossposted!

frugalkitty · 08/01/2020 17:51

Horsemad yes! Blast from the past!

HainaultViaNewburyPark · 08/01/2020 17:52

There was a character called Pilar in one of Agatha Christie’s books (I think it’s a Poirot one, not sure without reverting to Google). Which makes me think it might be a generational name. But I’m certainly no expert on Spanish names, and I’m basing my assumption on very little evidence.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/01/2020 17:54

Eldorado was car crash telly at its finest. Anything that could go wrong did. It actually had some proper actors in it too, as well as some appalling ones. We may never see its equal again....

Horsemad · 08/01/2020 17:56

I only watched a couple of episodes of Eldorado, can't really remember it.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/01/2020 17:58

Best forgotten, @Horsemad,Grin

frugalkitty · 08/01/2020 17:58

It wasn't on for very long Horsemad only one or two seasons so you didn't miss much!

I know many Spanish speaking women under 40 called Pilar.

Thanks Thisenglishlife
I loved Eldorado!

MilleniumHallsWalledGarden · 08/01/2020 18:31

I went to primary school with a Pilar in the mid eighties

Eldorado was good at the end but it's death warrant had already been signed.
They were vintage soap years, there was Eldorado and Brookie back then.

Harry and Meghan are stepping down as senior royals. Sooner than I thought.

Just seen the Sussex’s news - good for them. Perhaps the toxic press will now leave them alone.

ItsJustTheOneSwanActually · 08/01/2020 18:46

oooh I wonder where in Canada they'll come to
