I no zak has but wouldnt it be good to do it again theirs so many stories for characters in soap i hate when they axe some characters with the excuse that bosses give we made a joint decision to axe such and such because their wasnt anything left to do with them no character can ever run out of storylines.

Maybe ken barlow

Maybe phil mitcheall gets testicular cancer think such a story would see all sorts of sides to phil we havent seen especally with his whole hard man image.

This type of cancer usually effects men between the ages of 15 and 35. It makes me laugh how people assume its an old man's illness.

Yeah Russ had it in Hollyoaks.
It baffles me how people think Phil Mitchell could pull off serious storylines ....

No. Home & Away (of all soaps) did a testicular cancer storyline with Vinnie Patterson, years ago.

Russ in HO had it years and years ago, it was very good he had to shave his head for treatment and have one testicle removed and then it showed him trying to cope with being comfortable with hi girlfried again. very good!

Done before. zak probably was emmerdales 'hardman' type of character back then. I remeber Marlon being the only one he could turn to such was his belief that his illnes emasculated him.
