It’s like a sickness, really

Crossroads. It’s got supremely bad acting, tacky sets and some of the worst storylines ever broadcast on television.

In fact, we can’t think of any reason why anyone would want to watch it at all.

Hasn’t stopped us tuning in to every single episode, though.

Jane Asher is superb as Generic Bitch (we love how she always kisses the old-fashioned way), and we can’t help but want to do bad things to Ryan and Jimmy, despite them being the worst sex symbols in the history of soap opera.

It’s poor Jane Gurnett we feel sorry for, though. The pain of her involvement in the whole enterprise seems to be etched on her face throughout every second she is on screen as Kate.

2013 UPDATE: I subsequently met Jane Gurnett at the Mamma Mia 10th anniversary party. I had drunk three pints of wine and she couldn’t get away from me quickly enough.
