What do people think, deserved or not?

Yes I think so. The likes of Anne and Barbara have been part of the backbone of Corrie for 35 years, and add stability to the show, along with Ken, Emily, Betty, Sally, Kevin etc.

What's the point? She, along with Ken have not been in it for more than 5 months, why have they not been mentioned?

characters come and go with screentime, when you think of how much they were on during thr Tracy-Charlie-prison storyline its not surprising they got a break. but yeah, considering Blanche is about at the mo you'd think she'd mention them, or they could babysit Amy

I was wondering about Deirdre and Ken myself, they have not even been in the Rovers for a drink. They must come up with a storyline for them soon I would have thought. I am glad that Deirdre is staying for another 14 months and if she can earn a packet, so be it.

Noooooooo! The turkey neck should go

[Chris_2k11]

There's far more deserving people than her imo. What about Audrey or maybe Gail?

[Perdita]

Audrey maybe yes but Gail is getting on my nerves the last couple of years, so a NO from me.

[Richie_lecturer]

I agree, although I've always preferred Audrey and Dreary to Gail.

She can earn a few packets with that. Naughty Deirdre.
