I have never heard that you are born gay. ... I also do not believe it. I can imagine that some that are abused and mistreated by their heterosexual partners leave them and then turn to same sex partners. Maybe that is what Carla is experiencing... all her male partners let her down so maybe she thinks she is safer with a female partner???

While the causes of homosexuality have not been definitively explained, there is overwhelming evidence of a biological basis for sexual orientation that is programmed into the brain before birth based on a mix of genetics and prenatal conditions, none of which the fetus chooses.

It is highly unlikely that someone, who up till now has shown nothing but strong heterosexual tendencies like Carla, would suddenly become gay.

I hear Kiddiecop is returning to Walford. Couldn't they transfer her up to Weatherfield? She'd have this sorted in no time.

Back in the day when Parkerman and I were writing fantasy storylines about the soaps we could never have imagined that the luvvies would have taken our ideas on board and expanded them. Quelle surprise!!!

I thought the Joel, Kit, Lisa saga couldn't get any more preposterous but sadly I was proved wrong.

Kit the Detective Constable arrests Lisa the Detective Sergeant who is somewhat the worse for drink. He arrests her in a pub for Murder. That is far fetched enough. Then he takes her the Waetherfield Nick where he the lowly D/C interviews her in the presence of a non speaking peeler from Professional Standards. Who was the police advisor for this pile of poo. PC Big Ears?? Im just shocked that he didn't bring in PC Tinker of the yard.

Yes I know it's only a soap but surely it should have some semblance of reality and not insult our intelligence. I expect super lawyer Anya to return from the Emerald Isle as a High Court judge and deal with the case. Just a pity Marcus Christie isn't around when you need him.

The way Corrie is going I fully expect "Our Paul" to return as Billy gets out of the shower some morning.

Confused???? Yes you will be after this weeks episodes of Carry on Weatherfield!!!

Constables do not investigate murders...end of
Sergeants do deal with domestic murders where the offenders are immediately known
Inspectors or above deal with undetected murders

Perhaps Greater Manchester Police, the 3rd biggest force in the country don't have enough inspectors.

It is virtually the same line they went down it Emmerdale with Charity and Vanessa, altho' I found this hard to believe, I think it was a better fit with your theory that victims of abuse might turn to a same sex relationship.

I have known and worked with many gay people and not one of them ever told me they chose to be gay.

You and me both. Programme makers of drama love a flash back. They seem to think it adds something. Sometimes they are right, but sometimes all it adds is confusion, especially if it is not in time order. I have long lost interest in who killed Joel or why. In some ways I feel sorry for them, making all this effort, when I, and I sure many viewers do not care any more. There is a fine line between dragging things out for dramatic effect, and dragging out to boredom and indifference. I think they crossed that line a long time ago.

Personally I think the use of so many flashbacks are just the writers excuse for having so many holes in the storyline. DC Kit is as believable as a CID officer as Dopey David is as a hair Stylist. The whole storyline strikes me as scriptwriters who came up with a storyline and got bored with it halfway through. I hope they forget about Max and he rots in the cell and they only remember about him when Richard Hillman walks into Weatherfield Nick and confesses to the murder of his lovechild Joel and asks for 15 other murders to be taken into consideration. Joel is then discovered as having changed his sex and name to Jolene and living with Mavis Riley in Cartmel.

I think that they forget they are telling a story, which should be told as simply as possible, so that we can all understand it without too much effort. Instead they get too hung up on trying to be arty, adding all those flashbacks and twists most which can see through, so fail to inject the suspense and drama they are seeking.

I have also looked at it several times, and it is hard to tell. You could easily think his body was wrapped up or in a bag. But I think there was some air trapped under his jacket causing it to balloon up, you can get the same effect if you are soaking a coat in the bath. Thinking about it, it was a long way down from the viaduct and the river was running quite fast, so it would difficult to catch up with the body and bag it up. As long as we know he is definitely dead, I do not care if he was in christmas wrappings, or trussed up like a turkey.

Gail may as well have been run over by a bus several weeks ago with just a mention of it in the funeral parlour and drinks in the Bistro, as mentions of her is all we get, she is either upstairs or out shopping. She doesn't get seen for months and is not missed. As has already been said, she can't be arsed to turn up to feature in her own leaving story.

Corrie seems to have a penchant for writing in lesbian affairs for heterosexual women - Carla, Tracy, Asha, Nina for example. But I can't think of a single instance where a heterosexual male has become a homosexual. Perhaps it gives them some sort of prurient pleasure.

I seem to remember reading something about hetrosexual women who had to share a room, on holiday or at a work event, would be less reluctant to share a double bed than men would. If on occassions when women sharing a bed led to a sexual experience, they would not necessarily consider themselves lesbians. But men sharing a bed, even if nothing sexual occured, would be worried that others would think they were gay.

In the case of Carla, I am not sure if she, or we, are meant to see her as lesbian, bisexual or still hetrosexual. Personally I find her affair unconvincing and unlikely.

This is what happens when you become party to a secret involving two people you know. If Adam tells David he falls out with Shona, and might cause them to break up, and if he doesn't but David finds out, he falls out with David.

I am struggling to make any sense of this story. Is it the same van Chesney keeps seeing or does he just think it is. Has he bought the sugar to put in his tea, as I thought most vehicles have lockable petrol tanks?

More and more important points on which stories hinge seem to be happening off screen, which means that the writers do not have to make the effort to come up with believable details. Mason's brothers say David was seen at the storage facility, but who saw him? How did that person know who he was? Is Weatherfield such a small place that everyone knows everyone else?

Yes, and I think Jessie said he would give the money from the divorce settlement to David, which would give him a legitimate, reason for having the money. So I presume David just told the Radciffe brothers he had used it for a deposit to stall them.

I cannot see how they can end this story in a believable way, if Jack P Shepherd is not leaving Corrie, and I am sure he is not. If David gives them the money he will be homeless, unless Gail does not sell the house. If somehow the brothers get arrested, Harvey will send someone else. The only way out is for David to win the lottery, but we never see him buy a ticket.

I liked Mason showing what bullies can be like at school... somehow I find his 2 brothers unbelievable, a violent dad, yes but not 2 brothers not much older than he is, surely they would have all suffered at the hand of an abusive parent... why are they bullying their brother???? please, Christmas Day solve the money problem and lets have less bullying, extortion and nasty stuff happening for a while.. please..

I think they only started bullying him when he stopped bullying Liam and Dylan tried to change and stop being a thug.

The way things are going with Gail, she to is having a peaceful exit, in the sense we hardly see her now. The way the things are going she will leave on the tram off screen.

Or in a black cab.

No, they always leave in a black cab in Corrie. We get a shot of the cab going round the corner at the top of the street.

Audrey is a piece of work. It's actually pretty funny.

I just knew in my gut that Dee Dee would come through for Frankie, but what a burden. Joel's parents are miserable people. I pretty much expect them to scheme to be the family to adopt her baby, once they realize that she didn't go through with it.

Would not be surprised .. although I am not convinced that Dee-Dee will go through with the adoption once she has the baby....

No black cabs as such in Weatherfield but taxis and there have been plenty departures of characters in Streetcar's taxis or other private taxis :P

I do like Daisy with Kit as she seems to be aware of his game, but not with Daniel, and as for Bethany, what a glum lassie, she never has friends or nights out in town.

More scenes of Daisy wising up to PC Plod, not Craig, but then again, he needs a girlfriend!!

Sorry to hear you are unwell especially at Christmas. I am a great believer that keeping your body temperature constant speeds recovery. Either by staying in bed or taking a duvet to the sofa. Hope you are better soon.
