That's the results it gives anyways - it will probably change throughout the day so I'll update this topic later.
Mind you there's barely any votes between the top two.

On my welcome page there's something (in the rotating articles) about Suranne Jones and soap love rival ex-EastEnder apparently Suranne and Marc (Gianni from EE) had shared an intimate moment anyways if you click it - it will take you to the news page and the poll is at the bottom or try this link in AOL:

LOL - I have AOL. I'm getting a free speed increase as well.

Mind you I don't pay for AOL - haven't updated my card since 97 so they're not charging me for it lol.

I was talking about the tweenie that said it's a kids website.

Surprised any kids would want to use the AOL news channel.

Well it is Tweenie influenced I'm afraid. So much for impartiality

There's a link from the AOL website. It's on my own AOL account.

Blimey you've made a lot of posts today Lazy Gal.

Distinctly Unlazy Gal . For some reason EE always does well in polls like this.

Pmsl I am lazy honest.

I can't think re: the results because on the AOL soap message boards everybody hates EE.

Don't think about it too much, you're doing your lazy image no good .

I'm surprised EE is in the lead, but it still has a great deal of fans.

Unlike Corrie and Emmerdale, EastEnders is also a drama.
Corrie especially can't do that like EE can.

Yes but it doesn't excuse the fact that most people I know find Corries attempts at drama laughable.
It should stick to light hearted entertainment that's when it works best.

Leave the drama to EastEnders.

Corrie can do drama well, the current Shelley/Charlie storyline is proof of that. Admittedly they do go OTT sometimes, but they aren't the only soap guilty of that.

If EE had done Mad Maya for example they could have pulled it off. Corrie made it look pantomime.
