"The Soap Show" is a Hit With Soap Stars and Their Fans

"The Soap Show" is a Hit With Soap Stars and Their Fans

LONDON, September 29/PRNewswire/ -- The world's first internet radio show devoted to British and Australian
soaps is proving a hit with soap stars and fans alike.

The Soap Show (www.thesoapshow.com) features weekly interviews with the
stars of soaps such as Emmerdale, Coronation Street and Neighbours, as well
as classic soaps like Crossroads and Prisoner Cell Block H.

In just a few months the show has attracted tens of thousands of
listeners from around the world, as well as some big names from the world of
soap. Recent guests have included Blair McDonough (Stuart in Neighbours),
currently starring in the West End smash The Vegemite Tales, former Bad Girls
and Emmerdale star Claire King, Kerry Stacey who plays Tonicha in Emmerdale
and stars of Aussie classics Prisoner and Sons & Daughters.

Soap Show host Ian explains: "We give actors the space to talk about
their careers and share the stories the fans want to hear. Each topic in the
interview is separated into individually named audio files, so listeners can
scan down our radio player list and either listen to the whole interview, or
just the part of it that interests them."

The weekly show is available to listen to on demand for seven days. It is
accompanied by an extensive website which is full of features, interviews,
reviews and weekly episode guides to the soaps. There is also an active forum
for listeners to suggest questions for upcoming guests and request who they'd
like to hear on future shows. "This means the show can be a much more
interactive experience for both the listeners and the guests," says Ian.

The Soap Show has created a buzz on fan sites and discussion forums, as
well as recently being featured on BBC Radio 2's Steve Wright in the
Afternoon programme.

Guests lined up for The Soap Show for October include Ryan Moloney
(Toadfish in Neighbours), Lynne McGranger (Irene in Home & Away) and a host
of other well known actors from shows such as Coronation Street, Bad Girls
and Prisoner. Dream Team and Footballers Wives actress Emma Gilmour, soon to
appear in Corrie, will also be on the show talking exclusively about the
untrue tabloid rumours that her father is Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour.
