		Soap operas use a wide variety of characters within their confines, this ensures that the soap opera can use a large base of stories and also remain popular to a diverse audience.

	Eldorado (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eldorado was an ill-fated British soap opera that ran for only one year, from 6 July 1992 to 9 July 1993.
		It should be noted that some involved in the programme's production consider that the motives for cancellation were mainly political; they believe that Eldorado was not representative of the more serious image of the BBC that incoming management wished to present, particularly in light of the forthcoming renewal of the BBC Charter.
		In Britain, Eldorado is remembered as an embarrassing failure for the BBC, and is sometimes used as a byword for any unsuccessful, poorly-received or over-hyped television programme.

	"Eldorado" (1992) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Eldorado, by the time it finished, was absolutely unique.
		In Freddie Martin, Eldorado gave us one of TV's greatest gay characters: his reunion with his longlost daughter, Natalie, and his silent grief at the death of his secret boyfriend, Javier, were immaculately written and performed.
		Eldorado was able to give great depth and involvement to the idea of culture clash, and to highlight what life in the "new" Europe was really like (boo-hiss baddie Marcus Tandy calls German Dieter "Adolf" at one point).

	Lambert, Verity
		Critics quickly turned on Lambert's "tough" Minder reputation and blamed her for Eldorado's departures from the familiar British conventions for soap opera.
		The "greatest of all British television drama producers" had dared to set a soap opera in Spain, and filled it with a multilingual array of British expatriates and foreigners far removed from the milieus of either Coronation Street or the BBC's own "quality" soap, EastEnders.
		Lambert defended Eldorado to the end, and has since continued to produce a range of programming, from sitcoms to the gritty thriller Comics (1993), written by Prime Suspect's Lynda La Plante.

	Eldorado - the worst soap opera ever - theinternetforum.info blogsite
		In 1992, the year of falling European barriers, the BBC did its bit for the cause by launching a thrice-weekly 'soap for Europe'.
		Trailed in the tabloids as 'sex, sun and sangria', Eldorado was set in the Spanish fishing village of Los Barcos, and focused on its community of expatriate Brits, Frenchmen and Danes, all 'living their dream' of a home in the sun but the discovering that their new life was not one long holiday after all.
		Sadly the series (created by Julia Smith and Tony Holland - the creators of Eastenders) was cancelled a year after it had begun by the new BBC 1 boss Alan Yentob.

	Paul Nicholls Online - City Central
		City Central (1998 - 2000) appeared ready to embrace the soap opera genre in a manner that Out of the Blue had been unwilling to accept just three years earlier.
		Series creator, Tony Holland certainly understood soaps, having worked extensively on EastEnders (where he began his scriptwriting career) as well as the BBC's ill-fated soap opera Eldorado (1992 - 1993).
		Producer John Yorke (who would, in 1999 move onto EastEnders to great popular acclaim) brought a similar understanding and the inclusion of actor Paul Nicholls (as PC Terry Sydenham), was a concession to the burgeoning trend of casting ex-soap opera actors in popular drama series.
