A Granada production for BBC!!!
Granada, at the time, trying to emulate the success of Families (after they were force to finish that soap due to ITV Network dropping the UK soaps from daytime schedules) - along the same ilk as Revelations and Spring Hill (again both Granada).
All flopped because they tried to hard and to be honest they were not Families (cheeesy but not a bad Anglo-Australian soap - although in the last 12 months was purely based in Cheshire but with still some Oz overtures!)
Only soaps that Granada has had successes with are...
Coronation Street (Gtr Manchester-Salford based)
Families (Cheshire-Vale Royal - "wealthiest part of the UK" based and Sydney based).
Other Granada soaps (either ITV or other networks) that has predominantly failed....
Albion Market
The Practice
Spring Hill (Sky)
Revelations (part networked)
Castles (BBC)

I thought castles was a desperate attempt by the BBC to make another soap after eldarodo failed. probably due to the fact they had characters speaking spanish with no subtitles.
