When Soap Characters Get Shot Down..
It usually makes for great viewing when a character in soapland declares their undying love for someone out-of-their-league or uninterested. If the romantic in question is likeable, then there's much cringing done on their behalf by the viewers.. Or if they're not so popular then this normally queues the cruel laughter.
Here are some incidents that come to mind.. Fred Elliot. (Corrie) Wow, how many times has he been let down gently.. and well, not so gently. Minty (EE). Well, his proposal to Sam was as badly-timed as it can get, and he really did go out in true soap style! I mean, there she is with who she sees as her prince-charming (rolleyes), and along comes lumbering ol' Minty expecting her to run straight into his open arms. Barry (EE). Janine really kicked him when he was quite literally, down.. That had to be the harshest rejection of love onscreen ever! The last thing he heard from anyone before he died, was how repulsive he is! Ciaran (Corrie). It's coming up.. and I'll hardly be able to watch. He's one of the few people who actualyl lieks Tracy.. in fact, he's totally mad about her. Going around with the lucky sixpence etc. And she's going to break his heart.. Aww! Well, I suppose Tracy does deserve a mention too. The one time she actually found someone she cares about, and wasn't just trying to use and.. he turns her down! She's still pretty much infatuated with Steve, but it'll only end in tears, I'm guessing. There are some characters who's humiliations are just amusing though.. Spencer ("Kelly loves me Alfie!"), Sam and Candice just to name a few.. Well, who else have we got? |

I've got another Barry one.....
Remember years ago when he was going out with that woman, (was her name Vanessa?) and she ended up stealing loads of money from him, after pretending that she loved him etc. |
