Review:
This site was submitted quite a while ago, but after several reviews I decided to add it to the gallery. A very solid site with good branding and a convenient CSS solution to a complex layout. Nice style switcher with several color and type settings, even if some of the color alternatives are quite drastic and hurts my eyes. I love the menu and how it works, even if it breaks slightly when increasing the font size. Nice tabs on the sub-sections when navigating through the pages. Maybe the site could benefit from a fluid or wider layout, since the 800 width makes the site layout kind of cluttered.

The style switcher had some intense colors that turned me off. That's why I didn't give it as high as it might have gotten.
Yep it's a good site, shame about the appalling TV show! The colours should be toned down a touch as they are a bit garish. Agree about the liquid layout, but this goes for most sites.
The news scroll bar is a bit annoying, these damn things always mess up my scroll-wheel which I'm extremely fond of.
Very nice site with nice colors and good navigation bot thr main navigation and the "under tabs" are just great. :)
A little minus for that if you want to have larger text size than normal you have to have the yelow color on the site.
I don't know... I find the menu far too much on the "plain" side. It works well, but it just doesn't look like a lot of thought was put into it; basic grid, basic text, and a lot of empty space. Like the whole website, it looks pretty good but a little unfinished to me.
It might have terrible plots and far too many car deaths but thankfull the website is better than the soap.
Nice site with lots of good content (if anything related to Hollyoaks can be described as 'good').
I like the clean, almost minimal look - very unusual for a TV related site - and the navigation. I agree with the comments re a liquid layout, but its great to see a mainstream site go the standards route!
Like this site's clean uncluttered look, and the navigation. But they could do to lose some of the ads from the side columns.
One of those many "designed for 800x600 but doesn't fit without a horizontal scrollbar anyway" sites.
That's my only complaint. The navigation could be a little more beefed up in terms of font weights (primary) and font sizes (secondary), but otherwise is interesting and easy to use. This site is well executed, clean and appealing, I really like it. Congrats to Ian Phillip for a good job.
(Adblock caught most of the ads... hah)
