Iconic Merseyside soap, Brookside, is returning to TV screens for the first time in 20 years.
It’s been two decades since the 13 houses on Brookside Close were boarded up, and families such as the Corkhills, Dixons and Grants said their last goodbyes. Now, all the original episodes of Brookside will finally return to screens – on free streaming service, STV Player.
Set in a Liverpool cul-de-sac, the soap was created by Phil Redmond, who was also one of the people behind Grange Hill and Hollyoaks. Brookside drew audiences of nine million viewers at its peak.
