Soapstar Superstar

The promotions have been airing for a few days now and some idents have popped up tonight.

I quite like the ident idea but thought it was a bit strange the way if froze at the end.

Can anyone name all the people in the promotion/ident?

I recognise the Eastenders, Emmerdale and Corrie people but don't even know which soap the others are from!

the blonde guy is Lee Otley from Hollyoaks

From itv.com/soapstar

These are the contestants -

• Nicholas Bailey (Dr Antony Trueman, EastEnders)
• Richard Fleeshman (Craig Harris, Coronation Street)
• Michael Greco (Beppe di Marco, EastEnders)
• Shobna Gulati (Sunita Alahan, Coronation Street)
• Lee Otway (Bombhead, Hollyoaks)
• Roxanne Pallett (Jo Stiles, Emmerdale)
• Lucy Pargeter (Chastity Dingle, Emmerdale)
• Wendi Peters (Cilla Battersby-Brown, Coronation Street)
• Andy Whyment (Kirk Sutherland, Coronation Street)
• Sammy Winward (Katie Sugden, Emmerdale)

According to Fern Britton, on ITV's This Morning programme today, her and Ben Shephard will be the presenters of Soapstar Superstar.

Also I'm glad that it is only going to air for 10 consecutive nights rather than dragging it out over many, many weeks!

PS Well after beginning this thread due to the new idents being shown - I haven't seen any since! Typical!

What happened to Cilla (Black) hosting then? Or have I crossed wires?

Is Cilla not one of the judges :

I'm very disappointed in Fern if she's now presenting this sort of tat.

Oh, grow up. I'm sure she's concerned about what you think.

That was mostly tongue-in-cheek - apart from the bit about it being tat.

David

You could say the same about another Fern - Ms Britton. Started her career in proper ITV as a Westward announcer; now presents the shadow of its former self that is This Morning.

I thought that's the Fern we were talking about:

I can't imagine this doing very well in the ratings I reckon. It is bound to be another flop for ITV - the first flop of 2006 surely? :
