ANYONE BEEN WATCHING HOLLYOAKS? EATING DISORDER STORYLINE....

[lissielou]

just want to say i cant believe how accurate and well-written it is. the things that people dont think about when it comes to anorexia is that your breath smells, your hair falls out, your skin goes to pot.... well done C4

Hollyoaks seem to be quite accurate when it comes to their storylines I guess maybe as it is aimed more at teenagers

they do some really good ones, the date rape story was v sensitivly handled but it never gets the same coverage as EE or corrie

I don't have personal experience of anorexia but I agree they always handle/research delicate subjects very well - the Craig-John-Paul storyline is very close to something that I went through at uni (not personally - two very close friends & I picked up the pieces) So well handled and so true I cried when JP let Craig 'go'.
I second your 'well done C4'

i dont watch any other soaps now and i think its a shame that the only awards they ever get are the "sexiest" ones

I read she will die.

I've read that it's Melissa who dies - after tonight's episode I'd believe that.

i think they are keeping it well under wraps, either way its being v well done

god, remember the male rape story a few years back? imagine if corrie or EE did the same storyline? they'd have awards coming out of their ears. ive watched hollyoaks since it started and its just got better and better.

lol, always handy. calvin in particular is a very fine actor.

so is russ

I have read inot next weeks tv guide, looks like Melissa will die and not Hannah thank goodness.
I alway watch it, never watch EE or corrie, too much fighting
