Carla Connor (Alison King)

I really don't want to see Carla in trouble all the time-if it's not drinking, it's gambling, or losing a baby, relationship problems or everyone on the street turning against her. I surely hope Roy and Carla remain friends-as it's been heartwarming to watch.
I wanted some happiness for Carla-I really wished she and Peter would have had that baby together-if anyone, those two deserved some happiness for a change!

I like the idea of the guilt about the fire causing Carla to fall off the rails into another addiction. Soap disasters almost never have long term consequences for characters, but it seems likely in this case Carla will lose everything because of the fire. Of course we know she has nothing to feel guilty about, so I hope Tracy's part is revealed before Carla leaves.

Soaps love piling on the disaster after disaster for favourite female characters. I'm not sure why...

It would be nice if Carla leaves Coronation Street on a happy note.

Carla won't be around for long enough though. Maybe if/when Alison King returns to Corrie she could surprise Nick with a secret child of his she had while away.

Tracy's guilt over the fire is Corrie's equivalent to Dean's rape of Linda in EE with regard to the guilty going unpunished and the innocent generally not being believed. Let's hope both are resolved swiftly.

All soaps have it, Hollyoaks has a few murderers free no guilt and Emmerdale has Ross and Carly doing bad things too

Thanks tammy. I only watch Corrie & EE but you don't surprise me. It seems to be a very hackneyed storyline.

we need soap villains who do bad things to be punished too many escape scot free in real life

Yes, true, but what I think makes it more aggravating in these cases is that it's not just that the villain is going unpunished - though that's bad enough - it's that someone else, who is completely innocent and not just innocent but a victim as well, is suffering and having the finger pointed.
