The Damon and Debbie mini series was dreadful, it could have all been done in one 30min episode. Damon was playing a totally different character to what we've seen before. The scene were he got physical with Debbie was so out of character. The uncle turns up as a different character in years to come, Ray Quinns dad if I remember correctly. Was great to see Morecambe and Frontierland though, we spent a lot of our youth there and it struck up some great memories.
To be fair all the early episodes of Brookside are shit, with a lot of weak storylines and characters. I'm patiently waiting for Bar Brookie, the Jordaches, Tinhead and Jen Ellison to appear.
