comment
British series on The BBC, 2007-2009, created by Jimmy Mc Govern. It will not be returning for a fourth series as the show is made by ITV Studios, which has closed the relevant unit for cost-cutting reasons.Which is a shame, because it's an excellent series and has won Baftas, as well as International Emmys.The series is a batch of loosely linked stories revolving around the residents of a single street in Manchester (you may only see a character once or twice). The stories are hard-hitting kitchen sink dramas of the sort McGovern is famous for, although happy endings are common.

Character Development: A lot. Many of the episodes have the characters seeing the error of their ways and becoming better people.

Foreshadowing: "You'll be in the ground before me," is said to Sean by Yvonne's mum, who dies soon after. Yvonne and her sister murder Sean and hide his body in the grave where their mother is buried, so he is literally in the ground before her. Also a Meaningful Echo.

Bitter Sweet Ending: Angela's story, Yvonne's story (arguably), Jan & Cath's story, Shay's story and Margie and Eddie's story in the last episode Angela's surrounded by her loving family but her daughter is still disabled, Yvonne's free of her abusive husband but has to live with having killed him, Jan's son has been proven to be innocent but the once loving relationship between the sisters is ruined, Shay has got clean and has hope of seeing his son but still can't at least for now and Margie's dead but Eddie believes she died knowing he loved her and he makes up with his children
