But the plan to create an "Eastenders" transplanted to Cardiff was a failure. While the multi-ethnic and socio-economic variety portrayed was accurate and at times laudable, the storylines were unconvincing and ultimately boring. The initial 13 episode run was confidently predicted by all concerned to blossom into a full blown soap. but this was not to be. Good riddance! At this point I would like to comment on the plot summary by Martin Smith in which he states that "Tiger Bay" is set in a Welsh seaside town. Cardiff is the capital city of Wales with a population of 300,000+ hardly a town! To all Americans (you are more likely than any to read this) referring to Washington D.C. as a hamlet gives you the right idea. Anyway spleen vented and I can assure you that you will not be able to see this anywhere ever, no matter how many channels you end up with.
