Reviews

dementednun OK I have watched this show thanks to YouTube and other sites I watched it, as I am a script writer, I like to see how and why things fail.Were do I start well with the cast changes, I was impressed a bit of glamour from the start though would off been great but hey we didn't need a salon in the market cause no body got there hair done. (Joke)My Market has one. But yea the cast changes where to late too soon.What makes me annoyed is the story lines first off the Roy Char.. just out of prison cheats on his wife early on, not only dose she not seam to care or do any dramatic scene where he gets kicked out and she becomes bitter he just leaves , she also dose not mind telling people he was inside in the first place and brag about it. With every one being OK with that or never asking why he was inside. The Story line was over so fast but the women Roy had the affair with was a bit of Glam and a really good actress. Any way Lynn I think her name was Roy's first wife the one he cheated on her daughter seamed slow not in a bad way (Golden Girls Rose Way) she hated the fact Roy was coming back than hugged and kissed him when he was back and was happy to see him,than she hated him again.... its almost as if the writers left out a whole back story.I am not good with there names nor is google because a lot which is strange of the the actors and actress have the same names as American/rock stars / actors.. of the big screen which were more famous so its hard to find info on the Cast.Despite your views I still think Eldarado was the best Soap other than corrie in the 60's. As for Albion Market I found it dull and dreary with not enough Del Boys :)Official Rating: 3/10 Personal Rating: 4/10

physcgoth The guy Below or above ha-ha Is full off .... Open all hours was finished when this was over so your trying to say that a 20ep show got a 100 ep soap canceled what did they do re run it 10 times over lol... I have studied the show and it was very well acted the only problems was its time slots aka the Graveyeard slots where people where doing what ever lol....... All shows are axed due to low ratings that dose not mean there crap it just means no one is watching at that time maybe if it was a daytime soap who know a good replacement for take the high road at the time lol the only time this show might have had a chance was day time (limited story line pre watershed) or put on the same time as eastenders and ITV bosses where nice and didn't want to do that

Andy B A very sad tale this. Albion Market, like EastEnders, was inspired by the revolutionary 1982 Channel 4 soap Brookside, which shook up the UK soap world with a gritty, in-your-face approach, real houses and controversial issues. Albion Market was created by Andy Lynch (Brookside scriptwriter) and Peter Whalley (Coronation Street scriptwriter) and began as a curious melding of Coronation Street-style characters and Left Wing Brookside style story-lines, with a little Corrie-style humour mixed in. It bombed. And it was dreadful. Another problem was the screening nights - people liked the pub on a Friday night in those days, and Sunday was not a night viewers yearned for soap. Only around 25% of UK households had a VCR in those mid-1980s days, and so that was not a lot of help. Viewers' attentions had also been grabbed by EastEnders, which began in early 1985 (Albion Market launched in the August) and the Market characters were nowhere near as abrasive and dynamic as some of the original Albert Square residents.The BBC stuck with EastEnders through ratings teething problems (it was initially beaten by Emmerdale Farm!), but the ITV Network was a different kettle of fish and dropped Albion Market into even more disadvantageous time slots when it failed to take off initially. The show was shaken up and became far more intriguing with the introduction of a corrupt new market boss, but ITV had already decided to scrap it before the changes could properly take effect. Granada TV provided closure to the show's story-lines by dispatching the new villainous boss-man and bringing back the original, so viewers were able to leave Albion Market without too many threads left dangling.

Chris Abbott It was well acted, had some great characters, warmth, humour... but it failed. Why? "Albion Market" was supposed to be a companion soap for Granada's other Lancashire-based drama "Coronation Street", but somehow the setting did not inspire. And, although characters were often likable, the show often felt bitty and disjointed as it flitted round the market, the café, certain characters' houses and the market superintendent's office.Perhaps a large, central family group may have made a difference? Favourite characters included Jewish crockery sellers Morris and Miriam Ransome, Peggy at the market café and her daffy assistant Carol, fiery Lynne Harrison, and long-suffering Derek, the market superintendent, and his gormless side kick Keith.It was certainly grim. An abandoned baby was found in the back of a traders' van and an unemployed man attempted suicide. There was no sign of the glitzy side of 1980s life at first.As "Albion Market" failed to impress viewers, shoulder pads and blonde highlights for several of the male characters were imported, and 60s singer Helen Shapiro arrived as market hairdresser Viv.But before we could see if these new ploys would work, the show was axed. It had lasted one year.
