Dear Producer's of all soaps.

Please watch episode 124 of Brookside.

THAT is how you do a fight.

Thank you.

The great Anna Keaveney of course, playing Marie Jackson. Probably my all time favourite soap character, partly for that very scene. The brilliance of her and Sue Johnston as Sheila in that scene has probably never been bettered in any soap. It’s so intense and powerful and played with such conviction. You can really feel the hatred these two characters have for each other in that moment.

It’s important to remember that nothing of that nature had really been seen in soaps at that point.
