Be made to stay in a basement and watch all 8987 episodes of Corrie, all 5348 episodes of EastEnders or all 7585 episodes of Emmerdale?

Just a bit of fun

No it would have to be a soap you didn't really watch

Those would be exempt the moment you enter the soap chamber.

Depends on the duration length of this. What good is a million pounds to you if the rest of your life is spent sat watching nothing but TV! No thanks, life is too precious to waste it watching fantasy.

I'd need a million quid to cover my treatment and recovery after watching Philf Mitchell, Fiz and the Dingles.
For me that would be endless hell.

If you watched every waking hour and allowing for 8 hrs of sleep, it would take almost 2 years to do this. And this is all done while being alone? Don't think I could do it.

Would you have access to a fast forward button?

You'd have to up it to 5 million if you bought Hollyoaks into the mix

if it was just EE yes I would, but I am worried about this no future episode rules, I am going to have to stop watching it currently to marathon the previous episodes?

Refreshments will be provided, as well as luxury en-suite.

New episodes will be shown as part of our Sunday omnibus feature.

I'd readily do the Corrie and ED episodes as they are about 7 minutes shorter than an episode of EE and over a lot of episodes that's a lot of time saved

Watch every episode of Corrie, be paid a fortune and allowed to record them? What's the catch?
