Should Brookside really have been AXED?

It'll be 3 years next week. I wonder what they're all up to these days.

only one that seems to have made it big since is Phillip Olivier what with the Games and then Hollyoaks In the City... mind you Leon is also in that too.

There was some great actresses in Brookie like Nicki, Bev, Jacqui and others, so much wasted talent, whenever i here the tune i get emotional - I wish they could have brought it back!

I disagree BB think about it if ray wins x factor then he would of done better than them all!! dont forget barry grant went in the bill so he done alright for himself

also jennifer ellison has done really well for herself,modelling,acting

steve murray was in hollyoaks for a bit

I loved Brookside

Please bring it back...

I'm surprised we never heard more from Dean Sullivan who played Jimmy Corkhill. He was one of the stars that I expected to be snapped up by one of the other soaps once Brookie finished but we have heard nothing from him.

gosh I can remember watching it but not bits about it if that makes sense

Yeah it should never have been axed, I know that channel 4 just didnt want it in its plans as it was selling to a new owner and it only wanted hollyoaks.

Even Phil Redmond said himself, they were doing a new project to get the rankings back up and just as it was to air channel 4 just pulled the plug and axed it!

Just shows ya channel 4 didnt give it a chance and it just didnt want the show anymore!

Thats why i am doing the petition with now over 430 signatures to carry it on dvd releases like we got promissed!

It was deeply upsetting to see it end like it did, and i felt the way it ended was ok but could have been written a little better, instead of having jimmy sit on his sofa in the front garden talking about the world and politics etc.. So ok maybe it could have picked up a bit over the following year but they just didn't give it a chance and for that im truly angry. I've been twice to the close since it stopped filming and it looks ok still, and i felt a bit eerie going past jimmy's house, can't think why?
