After more than a decade the doors will be re-opening at Crossroads. Carlton Television is spending 10 million pounds reviving the much-loved soap (whose viewing peaked at over 18 million), which will be shown five days a week at lunchtime, with a repeat in early evening, from spring 2001. The new Crossroads will be made in Nottingham, with the old motel transformed into a modern hotel, and with a host of new characters - although it is expected that some of the original stars will return. Geoff Tibballs will tell fans everything they ever wanted to know about Crossroads new and old. As well as profiling the new arrivals and exploring how and why the show has been revived after all these years, the book will turn back the clock and consider life at the motel during the previous series run of 4,500 episodes. The book includes reviews of the show's most famous storylines including Diane's death, the motel fire, Meg Richardson's departure, the test-tube baby (the first time a subject like this had been explored in a soap), and the world's first eleven-month pregnancy.
Containing profiles of all the show's favourite characters including Benny, Amy Turtle, Diane, David Hunter, Meg Richardson, Jill Richardson and her brother Sandy, as well the most popular stars of the new series. Crossroads is a must for fans old and new.
