I do remember Harry Cross from Brookside have not watched it for many years . Recently parts of the media have been headlining cases where muslims have been involved, With muslim this or muslim that. It is never done with anyone else time this behaviour was stopped.

I agree that Ms Lemes would have been better off leaving Islam out of this matter…

Totally agree. She did not have to wear that dress in order to serve cocktails.

The Muslim aspect is a red herring, so to speak.

This is completely different from the case of Bushra Noah, who took a job in a trendy hair salon then refused to show her hair - basically she was just on the take, because she could have worked in a more conservative hair salon or as a mobile hairdresser just cutting women’s hair in their own home if her modesty meant that much to her.

Brookside was good in the days of Barry Grant. I’m old enough to remember Harry Cross, which I bet few readers of this blog are.

Salaam Alaikum,

Your useage of a Brookside plotline to support your argument is one of the many reasons why your BC is richly deserved! Mabrouk and long may you continue to discuss anything you fancy, insha Allah.
