Coronation Street [News, Spoilers and Discussion] contd

Agree re Carla and Si, she is brilliant. When Peter called her, as she walked away from the bench, and she paused, and turned, it was very realistic, I thought. Her face showed her sadness at how everything turned out.
I think Tracy's lines are ridiculous at times, I wish it was her who went off to join panto, instead of Peter and Rob.

I'm glad we have a break at the moment from Michael and his heart...:D
I'm afraid that Kal and his family will take centre stage now. On second thoughts, let's have Michael and his heart... Anything but Yasmeen and the community centre / butcher shop and that young fellow with his sulky head. Boring stuff.

I have said it before as have many but im starting to question myself with regard the person Todd is , was etc. His character has been altered from a charmin nice guy whos problem was he had too much empathy to a careless, cheeky lazy pain in the b*tt to a panto villain to a malevolent hateful troublemaker to a self pitying vain depressive??!

I wonder has anyone questioned the writers about this?

We've never been told what happened in 'that London' between when he went off with posh Jools and came back after scamming nice Alex.
No doubt we will find out at some stage why he changed.

I doubt we will or more relevantly i doubt they ever intend to. They essentially introduced a nrw character. I actually think Bruno Langley does a great job and id enjoy the character if i didnt find it so annoyingly ridiculous how he has completely changed.

Now Tracey leaves the Rovers muttering threats of revenge against Carla. Now what's she going to do, burn down the foundation garments factory? Haven't we had enough of the ridiculous storylines for this tedious character?

More than enough!

100% was no continuity error re the scar. Can we put this to bed unless someone has clear link to footage. I watched the show yesterday morninf as i missed it friday with the game and after reading these comments paused on every todd scene. There is a tiny scar under his right eye and a large bandaged one on his left. This never changed. Im confident of that

Will the writers ever set Mary up with a man? If They do the only one I can see them putting her with is Roy, unless they bring in a new cachacter.

Mary and Norris...:D once Norris gets over the fact that she was called to give evidence at Peter's trial.

Not with Roy, she would wreck his head.

NOOOO. I love Tim and Sally. The actors click so well and are a brilliant double act.

Agreed. They are great together. I love Tim, and matching him with Sally and her little pretensions is one of the funniest things that has been done on Corrie in a long time.
The night she was telling him about how going to the parent-teacher meetings, for her girls, used to be a high point in her life, is just one example. I was laughing my head off.
