View Full Version : Wedding Shells
Got this from today's Sun paper:
Coronation Street bully Charlie Stubbs will propose to Shelley - but bosses are filming TWO endings to the story to keep fans guessing.
Control freak Charlie and his long-suffering girlfriend will plan their wedding day for September. But in a first for the soap, the writers have prepared two scripts.
An ITV1 insider said: "It's going to be one of the biggest plots for a long time and we are going to huge lengths to protect it. With so many people against the wedding - particularly Shelley's mum Bev - it is bound to be dramatic and may or may not got ahead. We don't want anyone leaking the details so only a minimal amount of people will be given them."
It is the first time two endings have been shot, but Deirdre's court case in 1998 and Raquel and Curly's wedding in 1995 were both shot in absolute secrecy with a few crew members.
The insider added: "We know plots get out one way or another, but we are desperate to keep this secret."
Shelley (Sally Lindsay) has become a paranoid wreck after Charlie (Bill Ward) gradually became more controlling and critical of her. This week, Shelley has an eye op to get rid of wrinkles because her self confidence has fallen so low. But people assume Charlie has hit her when they see her swollen eyes.
this will be very intersting im sooooooo looking forward to this

I wonder what will happen, I love it when we don't know what's going to happen makes it really exciting, no doubt Bev will have something to do with it if the wedding has a problem.
I reckon that its going to be brill

yeah i read about that.
I wonder which ending they are going to do out of the two endings they are planning.
Well we dont even know what the two endings are yet so its a bit early to speculate - However knowing Corrie either will be well written and fantastically acted out

They've done this before when she got married to Peter! (filmed different endings I mean). Anyway, I suppose it sounds good :)
it should be good. I cant imagine charlie being the settling down type though.

i hope she says no when he proposes
shelley wouldnt though because she loves him. Its just him that doesnt love her. He so manipulative.
Charlie no doubt has an ulterior motive for proposing to Shelley
no doubt about it. he always has an ulterior motive.

it well be very good to see what happens i hope peter comes back and shelly goes of with him
Cool. I cant bleive this is going to happen.
EDIT - Text Talk
please let it not happen they cant make her have another wedding that 'll end in disaster
Its going to be ace whatever the outcome of the story is
I really like this story actually, but its going on for way too long
Wrap it up soon Corrie!
Been going on for over a year so far. Not long left to go until it beats the "Shannis" saga.
Very true, but it sort of starts and stops. Its isn't as continual as Shannis, but still, it should be wrapped up soon. Either they split, one of them murders the other or they live happily ever after
the end!
The reason its going on so long is called realism unlike Dots 2 week cancer storyline

The one where she went for a check-up months later?
I'm getting bored with your obsession with the Dot/Cancer storyline.
but they go on too long, to the extremes i mean

I am not obsessed with it. IMHO the writers had a great opportunity to make an impact with that storyline and instead wasted it. A long running and well known and loved character such as Dot would have made a great impact and the fact she is played by the superb June Brown would have made it so realistic.
Dianes Cancer storyline in Emmerdale has been handled in a far better way and is in fact still ongoing
Well despite the length I still think the storyline was good :p

Well yet again we will have to agree to disagree. IT could have been so much better handled. Still I suppose the blame lies with LB :sick:
oh no how much longer will this hell go on? it is runing a once decent show.. and if its their way of trying to beat shannis wedding then they are having a laugh! :rotfl:

You are an undertaker love so I can see why you love Coronation Street :p
At the end of the day Dot's cancer has nothing to do with this.
The reason its going on so long is called realism unlike Dots 2 week cancer storylinewell that does make a lot of sense but they can go on for too long espically when thats the main focus all the time
Whoever heard of such an absurd thing! Realism in soaps, not for about 5 years and I don't expect or want it now. They became an entertainment thing a LONG time ago. If soaps were realistic NOTHING of any interest atall would happen for years on end.

I don't think Corrie itself has a risk of going anywhere but ITV does.

Unfortunately there are only a limited number of storyline so obviously they will appear in all the soaps. Who does them better is a matter of personal opinion.

I don't have a personal opinion on which soap does anything best. I like to remain open minded and impartial and give them all a chance even if they keep failing to churn out the goods i.e. Coronation Street. This boxing storyline could really have been a chance for some good drama :p

I agree, i do like the comendy stories which they use to fill the gaps in between major dramatic stories, but this is going a step too far. Its pathetic!
Bit TOO coincidental that they have similar voices, don't you think?
i know! i thought that was pathetic when i first heard that other butcher speak,he speaks near enough the same way as ashley,it wasnt particuarly funny just stupid and when they starting rhyming there words!!!! i would have died of embarresment if i was the actor.
