Before the Nolly drama from ITV & the arrival of Boom Radio, there was only really 1 place the Crossroads Motel would get a mention from time to time & that was on Paul's radio show. & the fabulous 50th hour-long special Paul hosted. We're so sad to hear the news. #RIPPaulOGrady

In the days of 'recorded as live' if an episode ended with a scene you wanted to start the next episode with, you did the scene again. Crossroads did this often, but maybe never quite like this in the fabulous Young Doctors also from Reg Watson. Quite a spot the difference...
