Why is Ray Fearon on then? I surmise that he could go on as he has left Coronation Street, but Sean Wilson was on Dancing on Ice after he left Corrie? What's with all this BBC-itv animosity? I know that Eastenders stars are not really allowed to go on Celeb Stars In their eyes, unless they've left. It's so weird.

This reminds me of the uproar that is going on with the Oz version of Dancing with the stars, where they are upset about the prominence of stars from the network , Channel 7.
