IF EastEnders' Cindy and Ruth, Coronation Street's Deidre and Sally, Brookside's Jacqui and Lindsey and Emmerdale's Jan and Sarah were loaves of bread in a Blackburn supermarket they would be removed for being stale and way past their sell-by date.
Kermit, the Frog, Miss Piggy and Babe have far more charm, femininity and charisma than any of these self-opinionated 'soap' stars.
And in Birds of a Feather, Dorien, the female Rumplestiltskin on stilts, being portrayed as a man-eater, is about as convincing as a man-eater as Humphrey, the Downing Street cat.
If any of these ladies appeared in a Hammer Horror film, you'd be reaching for garlic and a stake!
