    TELLY boozer the Queen Vic is the UK's favourite soapland business

    TELLY boozer the Queen Vic is the UK's favourite soapland business.

    Brits said they would rather do a shift in the EastEnders pub than in ANY other TV workplace.

    And Peggy, Barbara Windsor's feisty landlady, is the country's favourite boss.

    The Vic knocked Coronation Street's The Rovers Return into fourth place in a poll by Regus, the temporary workplace provider.

    Doctors' Letherbridge University campus surgery came second in the top businesses, with The Loft, (Hollyoaks) third.

    And Hollyoaks scored second and third with top bosses, with Louise Summers and Jack Osbourne.

    I'm not surprised the Vic and Peggy came first, but am astonished that the Rovers didn't come second.

    Probably depends on who did the survey, if it was on Digital Spy, then I am not surprised.

    If it were a real pub the Queen Vic is the last place I would want to go for a pint. I think the Woolie is much more realistic. A choice between Maisie and a washed up old crone like the poison dwarf says it all really. No Contest

    But Alan, you could be served by Tracey or Roxie or Ronnie, and perhaps even Glenda now But I agree with you, I would prefer The Woolpack or the Rovers Return.

    The Woolpack does actually look like a nice pub, The Rovers and Queen Vic look scruffy.
    Happy New Year SoapBoards!

    Would love to work in the Vic as they never seem to be busy and if they are, Tracey does all the work!

    But that would apply to all the other soap pubs too

    I mean that they are not busy, Tracey does not work in all of them
