 Afternoon
UK soap that began in 1972 the same time as
Emmerdale Farm (In 1972 ITV began broadcasting
TV programmes in the afternoons for the first
time). The show was pretty much like the US soap
General Hospital
in that it was mainly concerned with the
romantic entanglements of the doctors and nurses
of the Midlands based hospital.
Initially twice
weekly and thirty minutes long in 1975 the show
graduated to a primetime Friday hour long
broadcast.
