Triangle Triangle
Posted by: AlanHilter

Video duration: 37 seconds

Opening titles of what may be the most derided soap ever made. Set on board a ferry sailing between Fleixstowe, Gothenburg and Amsterdam the show paved the way for "Brookside" and other such dramas with its unique use of OB video cameras and editing (which was done on board the ship). Pity poor Kate O'Mara though. That's her, sunbathing topless, in the gloom and grey of the North Sea!
