Beside the picture I wrote “Excusive on itv1” so that my audience will know which channel to watch the soap.

And in between the pictures I drew a broken heart with a bloody knife in the middle to make it look more exciting to my audience.

Then at near the bottom of the page I wrote the time which was every Monday at 5:00 to 6:00. Finally at the very bottom ...
