Why does no one use their garden in tv soaps?

Does anyone remember Derek's gnomes? grin

Never mind a sinkhole, doesn't Gail's garden have a body in it?

There’s an echo here

What about Sallys conservatory and the lady who kept chickens in hers, and Gail’s garden had a sinkhole.

And Yazmin had chickens in hers and Gail had a hole the size of the Rock of Gibraltar

Sally has a hot tub in her garden.

I remember the family with the Irish Dad and two boys had a 'yard' where the Dad used to fix motorcycles.

Several gardens in Corrie as well as back yards. Garden in the square in EastEnders. Also the allotments seem to be popular.

Too busy behind the nets at the front windows?

Many years ago I remember Mavis in Corrie doing up her back garden 😄 That was probably one of the last times I watched it 😄

Do most even have back gardens in Coronation Street?

Set limitations, in that they don't exist, weather constraints could delay filming and continuity, an episode can be filmed over several weeks.

Just as nobody owns a washing machine.

Just that really .
I enjoy eastenders and coronation street but always wonder why no one ever goes into their garden!
