I grew up with this, softly Softly, Z Cars etc etc. No wonder I cannot stand TV to this day.
They never gave it a chance, it was perfect casting when it came back. Never understood how Emmerdale has survived so long. I loved it and Family Affairs on 5 I used to record both to watch after work.
I'd even say the same for coronation street
I liked the reboot. It will be twenty years in March now
Was amazed to see Roger sloman of Nuts in May fame playing a part in crossroads 2!🤣
i think i remember episode 1, seeing a motorbike pull up outside, that kid with the leather jacket, i think he ended up with the daughter, i was obsessed with it back then. i'd love to watch that episode again, i've searched for it but couldn't find it.
The episode exists in our archive and was posted on RUclips but was later taken down due to copyright reasons.
Woah!…did somebody have a pop at Albion Market there?!
‘Albion’ was THE king of soaps with some world class method acting. Who can forget Keith the gormless sidekick?… his performance was a tour de force and brought tears of joy to literally tens of hundreds of viewers. The reason it was canned was obvious, the actors of Coronation Street became jealous and started malicious rumours about how viewing figures were ‘doctored’… we can only hope this new version of Crossroads goes the same way! I’ve been chained to the railings (apart from toilet breaks) here at Granada since they removed my favourite soap from the airwaves…AND I’LL REMAIN HERE UNTIL IT RETURNS!!!!🤬🤬
ALBION MARKET FOREVER!
i remember crossroads when i was 12 and im sure it was on at juist before 6 o clock news
They were so optimistic haha
Coincidental that orig crossroads was filmed in the village where Julie Burchell lived
That came as a huge surprise, was lovely to see the village too!
Very interesting.
Was such a shame they wrote out Jill so quickly and never understood why Benny wasn’t brought back.
I was pleased that it came back - but a bit disappointed after a while. I used to like characters like Vera Downend, Diane Parker, Valerie Pollard, Mr Paul, the Richardsons (of course!), Nicola Freeman, the Hunters, Mr Lovejoy and Mr Booth the chefs (and Shughie, of course!) and Amy Turtle (YES!) but the new one had too many youngsters in it for me. I thought Beverley and Jason Grice and their pals worked very well as the original series coasted home, it was refreshing to have real child/youth actors in the show, but I felt this version was far too heavy on youth. Lovely to see Elisabeth Croft in the programme. Miss Tatum was wonderful.
+1 I agree with you. I also felt the emphasis was too much on the youngsters. I never really watched it because of that. Give me the classic Crossroads any day.
Damaged lino would have been a major storyline in the original series.
Loved the reboot. Should of given it a few years before taking it off then bringing it back where it died in my opinion
If they had given it Emmerdale’s timeslot it would have succeeded.
@@jwillk42 actually the 2001 reboot was like any other show.
The original was bad this was terrible
I’m sure the 3 orginals regretted being a part of this car crash
I think that the Crossroads theme music only really had 3 major variations;the original Tony Hatch, the Wings(in my view the best) and this one.The Kings Oak one doesn't count as it wasn't based on the Hatch original.
where have i heard the music that starts at 23:00 before? anyone know? 😁😁
edit - remembered... it's the music on Homes Under The Hammer when they are at the auction... 😂😂
😂😂😂
The kid Julia Burchell can't have been that good, as she's done fuck all since 2005!
maybe she had some ill fortune
You're hard. You prick
The finael episode of new cross rds turns out it was all a dream all staff working in super market
I don't know why ITV didnt support this verison of Crossroads, except the timing of the programme was wrong 5:05 after CITV, Should have been slotted into the 6:30pm slot.
that was p of my d to carlton at ahh my o ho where's alex nd
the cm was at lwt
It was crap lol
@@alexrobinson3970 What are you on about, Are you drunk??
True, I remember the CITV presenters used to promote this to the kids still watching, even though the proper target audience were the mums who were probably too busy making those kids' teas at 5pm.
23:40 "I don't need a reservation, I OWN the hotel"
Well sorry me duck, you should've tarld us you'wre Cumminggg, ye see, we've rented art the eggzecutive suite fer a stag party, and they're up there right now, and their party is in full swing. You'll just av to tike one uf the budget rooms, left owver from the orrriginal series.
Was that Rolf Harris singing, Theyvwill have Jimmy Savile opening it!
ITV mucked about with crossroads too much ...sad that it ended the way it did..might have run longer if they had left it to just develop with its audience..I liked this reboot but preferred the original..
It had no audience one episode was watched by less than a thousand people
Wasn't the entire comeback all a dream?
How much money did they spend for it to be such a flop? Mind you how much money were spent on building those studios back in the 80’s for them to be sold off to the University of Nottingham in the noughties?
We used to watch this every evening but the storylines and acting were terrible. So wooden....
The shaky sets were part of its charm lol
The problem with the new Crossroads was that it was terrible
It was car crash...boring ....some actors were good others pants script lukewarm, glad it went same with family affairs!
Family Affairs was actually mostly good but it was doomed by these factors
A) Channel 5 (who weren't actually a bad channel to start with, fuck them for icing Neighbours though)
B) Up against Hollyoaks which was on a channel more people watched
C) Lineup and tone changes
D) Seesaw storylines.
I loved Family Affairs it was really good
They wasted so much time and money it’s bizarre looking back. It was like this isn’t drawing twenty million viewers in the first six months and I’ve lost we’ve lost interest now.
They brought back just three characters!! There's your answer why it didn't last. You may as well have given the show a completely new title!
Maybe there was shit acting, shit storylines and a shit set before....but the characters were endearing and that's why it kept going.
They bring back Jill, Adam & Doris and think that it'll work! 🙄
