Ok, just would like to know what you thought was the WORST storyline in soap history. Get it all off your chest...

(In a bid to stop us all repeating ourselves, please DON'T mention the EE Feirrera Kidney plot or the Cilla/Les/Status Quo wedding plot )

So basically it's the worst storyline ever apart from the actual worst storyline ever which is the Kidney one.

I think the worst one this year (apart from the Status Quo farce) was the Charlie and Shelley snooze fest...

Poor Sally Lindsay - as an actress all her dialogue for months on end was: "But I love you Charlie." I heard a rumour that she didn't need to learn her scripts - she knew what she had to say anyway...

The plane crash in Emmerdale.

The ride of death from EE.

Bobby Ewing's waking up and we discover there was no point in watching Dallas for the past couple of seasons because none of it ever happened.

The UFO ending of Dynasty (I think it was Dynasty?)

Well, I've got to break your rules because the kidney plot is the worst storyline ever.

I remember that! That really was a rubbish! It was about a woman called shirley and her Neighbour gavin kept playing his music too loud, she complained about it, they had a few confrontations, so he killed her cat.

Oh I remember that, I think it had potential, but they totally ruined it with the dead dog farce. :yawn:

EDIT: Oh it was a cat, that's how memorable it was...

Do you mean Shirley who thought Gavin had murdered her cat?

That was pretty bad. I'd vote the worst ever soap storyline was anything to do with the Ferriaris...

Hollyoaks is famous for its good-looking cast - shame that 'actors' can't act and the 'writers' can't write! The Beast of Hollyoaks?? WTF??

thanks for that, the only potential it had was to be the worst storyline ever!

the other one was over the identity over lauras baby, i say its rubbish because im so sure ian had a fertility test showing that it couldnt be his, but then the ee people dont want it to be garys either, so gary just drops his son, whatever happened to that kid, does it still live in walford?! and how come its now ians? i hate it when they drop a storyline in mid air like that.

But gavin and shirley storyline wins hands down

I thought Nana Moon getting engaged to Wilfred was so far-fetched - especially when he turned out to be just using her and ended up stealing money that Pat had recently come into...

The storyline came from nowhere and it ended very suddenly - one episode, Nana was ready to marry him, the next Wilfred took off, and the next Nana was sad... end of storyline!

one of the lecturers in my department writes for Hollyoaks.

The worst storyline I can think of, was the one where the helter-skelter in EE fell down, and Ian was introduced to Jane.... rubbish!

Honeytrap in EE

Whenever EE has a football themed storyline (every major international football competition)

Spencer the entrepreneur in EE

For someone with a username named after one of their greatest stars, you sure seem to have a thing against EE!

A vasectomy takes several weeks before it starts working. Bobby was concieved during that time.

No it was Dynasty's spin off The Colbys.
