James Corden slags off Hollyoaks

Gavin And Stacey star's not a fan of the show

Thursday, 7 August 2008

James Corden has slated the Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks.

The comedian, who had a small role as a caretaker in 2001, didn't enjoy his time on the programme.

‘It's f***ing awful. I can't tell you the sheer disdain I have for the place and people,’ he tells Esquire.

‘I met a couple of really good friends there, but it's [only] 20% nice people.’

‘It just breeds pricks - all these people walking around with this chicken-in-a-basket fame, talking about going to LA.’

James, 29, co-wrote and starred in Gavin and Stacey, and won a Bafta for his role as Smithy.
