By 1982 Crossroads was struggling in the ratings so the BBC decided to give them a boost. Meg Mortimer, the central character in the soap was to be burnt out of the hotel in a bonfire set by Benny but luckily for her she was rescued by Sandy who had a last minute change of heart and sent her off on a cross channel ferry, ''The Herald of Free Enterprise'' for a day trip to [[Zeebrugge]].
