I wonder what would happen if the scriptwriters were told they mustn't use any of the following plot devices.
1. No more burnt dinners
2. No more running out of milk and having to go out to the shop
3. No more just happening to overhear a conversation they weren't supposed to hear.
4. No more seeing something by chance and getting the wrong end of the stick
5. No more traffic hold-ups when driving somewhere in a hurry
6. No more returning characters with a secret
7. No more surprise pregnancies after just one....er...you know
Would it mean the end of soaps as we know them?
