This article is written from the Real World point of view.

New Zealand, a South Pacific country of about 4.2 million people, is occasionally mentioned in the script of "Coronation Street". A handy place to send characters so that viewers don't expect to see them again, or to dredge up "long-lost" relatives without having to explain why they have not been mentioned before.

It has also produced the occasional actor or other production worker.
