Brookside - Soap Bubbles

Soap Bubbles

Two 'soap bubbles' were produced in the late 80s. Damon and Debbie (1987) followed the two characters, Damon Grant and Debbie McGrath absconding to York, concluding in Damon's death. The second, 1988's South, saw Tracy Corkhill and Jamie Henderson seeking a better life in London; this was part of an ITV For Schools English programme and was notable for featuring a guest appearance by Morrissey playing himself.

Famous quotes containing the words soap and/or bubbles:

    A ‘spasm band’ is a miscellaneous collection of a soap box, tin cans, pan tops, nails, drumsticks, and little Negro boys. When mixed in the proper proportions this results in the wildest shuffle dancing, accompanied by a bumping rhythm.
    —For the City of New Orleans, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Give fools their gold, and knaves their power;
    Let fortune’s bubbles rise and fall;
    Who sows a field, or trains a flower,
    Or plants a tree, is more than all.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
