EE and CORRIE merger...............
i think this could be an idea for the bosses of both soaps to kida play with them a tad further, where they could cross charactors between both soaps.
wouldnt this be a good idea if say......................pat went up north to visit a freind in manchester ............who happened to be vera duckworth in the street, .......or maybe tyron and his new girlfriend stayed at the b&b for a week, or maybe they should play it like football teams and buy or rent charactors from each soap, or even have a 5 a side footy match from the walford wonderers agains the street survivors maybe im just being daft, but do you think this could work??

They could do it as a charity show like Red Nose Day or Children in Need. I would like to see different soaps merge. It would kind of be fun to see it happen but I don't think they could do it as a normal show cause to many people would think it was to weird but like I said as a charity show it would be good.

that would definatly work for charity, but i think if they merged everynow and then, they may get double the viewers, tho its just a thought and i think they will have probably thought about it anyway !!

I thought of this one time say that when they call the police in EE the team from the bill appear, likewise if they call the fire brigade it could be the ones from londons burning. Wishful thinking Im afraid cant see the tv companies buying the idea

This used to happen (accidentally
) in Neighbours and Home and Away all the time! I remember Craig McLaughlin (sp?) appearing simultaneously as Henry Ramsay in Neighbours, and as a history teacher in H&A. Happy days....

Yeh I remember that too. I agree, it would be a good spin off for a charity like Red Nose Day or Children in Need but as a normal show, nah it wouldn't work. It would be chaos really, the writers would have a hell of a time thinking up a plausible storyline for the characters to interact with each other.
Nah Coronation Street should stay in Manchester and Walford residents shouldn't be allowed out after a certain hour lol |

Yes, but when they went accross into the different soaps, they weren't actually the same character.
I've often thought of this cross-pollination idea, so long as they didn't overdo it, I think it could be fun. |

I'm pretty sure it has happened once, between Brookside and Hollyoaks, the youngest of the Musgrave brothers from Brookside, not the rapist, later turned up as the caretaker in Hollyoaks who nearly married Chloe - pretty certain he was the same character, seem to remember him talking about his family returning to Ireland (as the Musgrave's did). Although it probably happened with these two soaps as they're both Phil Redmond creations.
