This would be like Susan Lucci leaving "AllMy Children" -- if "AMC" played in primetime and had the ratings of"American Idol." Indeed, "EastEnders" and "Coronation Street" havedominated British TV for decades. (I had no idea "EE" began in 1985; Ijust assumed it had been around forever. My even bigger shock was theday I realized this full-figured gal had played the sexpot on the sillysitcom "Are You Being Served?" in the Seventies. She was on that showfor some 13 years.) I love that Richards said she felt it was time to moveon. After 22 years? What was the first hint -- realizing kids out ofcollege had been born AFTER the show began?POSTED BY MICHAEL IN NEW YORK AT
