THIS WAS NO LONGER GOOD ENOUGH SUBJECT: Soap Awards Story? Hey Caroline, Just wanted to run a idea by you, We’ve just launched a brilliant list of British Soap Stars When They Were Young featuring all the classics like Peggy Mitchell and new favorites like Rosie Webster Link: http://www.twolittlefleas.co.uk/soap-stars/ I think this would go down a storm on The Metro if you’d like to share it in some form, especially as it’s the ITV Soap Awards this Sunday. Two Little Fleas is an online bingo community with a passion for creating cute and quirky apps, lists and tools. Our stuff has been recently featured in the Radio Times, HuffPost Comedy & Lifehacker. Thanks Caroline let me know what you think, Pete
