Not a bad idea Emzi, with the right cast and story lines it could be really good. To start off with you could have the opening few episodes showing Abby Davis coming to universtiy from Hollyoaks and then take it from there. A Hollyoaks spin off if you like.
Perthshire in Scotland would be great for a soap. its mixture of busy towns, and rural settings, frequent visits from tourists, and the right mix of people who live there, could be a great soap to compete with River city, high road and then eventually the big 3.
lol! A soap in Perthshire would be funny! But I would like one set in Aberdeen. Sort of a Scottish version of Dallas. Revolving around the oil business and stuff. The family could all live on a big farm. lol!
A soap set on the coast anyway, so it would be like Knots Landing or something. And you could see the beach with the lead female character saying that she'd never seen the ocean etc. like Valene! lol.
Cornwall - lots of people moving in and lots of conflict that could result from that and a mixture of classes. Stunning scenery and plenty of scope for falling down mine shafts or off cliffs, plus possibilities of witchcraft and Wickerman type scenarios.
