    Microasoap summary

    I really miss this show-It is such a great show. Showed on BBC and also Disney I really like the music for it. Like with a lot of TV Series the first series was the best and the second came out a little bit after and some peoples voices had broken which was quite funny-I have some episodes on tape-Would really like the full series but as yet not been able to find it? They gave done some books but that is not the same as watching it. Would like to see Rebecca or Beck as featured in some credits on TV again-she seems to have vanished! A lot of good characters in the programme-1 of the dad's was also featured in a 118866 advert! I do not know much about the other characters.

    A rather large Micro!

    This show has won quite a few awards and it's not hard to see why. Emily and Joe are children of divorced parents Jane and Colin. Colin has remarried and Jane has a boyfriend Roger who has three children David, Felicity and Robbie. Emily and Joe act more like the parents while the adults are more like the children as they try to keep everything together. Jane is a nurse and is completely scatty and it's a surprise she still has her job, Colin is just as bad and wet and he works with computers. You really do feel sorry for the children who are being made to grow up too quickly!

    Lucy Evans

    the amazing thing is that this show is virtually absent on the net!!! Where are all the Microsoap pages? I mean apparently this show is everywhere, Canada, France, Holland, Germany, Belgium. But not a lot of net-exposure. Oh well, not even (C)BBC deems it worthy of showing the credits in full .... grrrr!

    Take heed of Lucy Evans as Felicity. She's really good as overenergetic little bratty perky sister

      Doctor: Well, I must say that careering across a busy traffic junction at 40 mph in a shopping trolley is a very stupid and dangerous thing to do. I'm thinking of doing a brain scan.

      David: You think it might be damaged?

      Doctor: No, to see if you've got one.
