Met 4 of the Emmerdale cast a few years ago at Leigh when they played Leeds nice group of people apart from supporting Leeds. If memory serves correctly the one who plays Terry is supposed to be an Ex league player not sure who he was supposed to have played for but when he first came to the show this was mentioned only remember because he mentioned rugby league.

my ex lives on a boat not far from there

MTE!

Something like Farsley I think.

Probably just Coronation Street producers re-inforcing Northern stereotypes - Jack Duckworth used to have racing pigeons too.

...another link - Lucy-Jo Hudson who played Katy Harris in corra is the sister of Castleford's Ryan Hudson.

Married to Tyrone she is too!

The woman behind the bar in 'The Woopack' used to be a hooker !!!!!!!!

Years ago, they had a inter town game of RL (or something like that) Terry said he would get a friend who still played in as a ringer, up popped Martin Offiah. His team were 1 player short so asked a bloke to play who was putting the paint markings on the pitch, around turns Gary Connlly (sp)



The other village team had pulled in a few ringers themselves, the entire Tongan RL team. they were over here for the WC iirc

nothing in soap land compares with the film (cant remember the name) scripted by colin welland, and starring richard harris, rugby scenes filmed at central park.



someone give me a name please?



summat with game in it i think

this sporting life





and it was filmed at belle vue - wakey
