I've noticed that as well!
There's a few Northern-based programmes that seem to do this - they must just get the A-Z out when thinking of a name for a new character! |

Ooooh failsworth! Where i'm from! I remember a few years back when it was mentioned when someone was leaving the street and they said it was a horrible area! Was hilarious with the local papers saying it was discusting! Half of it is bloody horrible!
