Coronation Street never goes for the "big Christmas Day" - it always focusses on families and normality.Quote:

Stories such as Joe Donelli taking Stan & Minnie hostage , the death of Len Fairclough, the death of Stan Ogden, the death of Bert Tilsley and the culmination of the Alan Bradley story have all taken place in the early days of December.
The New Year and early January has seen Vera Lomax dying, Valerie Barlow's death through electrocution, the murder of Ernie Bishop, the murder of Brian Tilsley, the death of Katie McDonald, the death of Alf Roberts, the death of Dennis Stringer and Richard Hillman's murder of Maxine Peacock.
Coronation Street's main "big" Christmas storylines have included births, marriages and of course the departure of Hilda Ogden.
Coronation Street always shows normality and life-affirming stories at Christmas. If you want 'something more' then you're watching the wrong soap.
lets be honest DAVID stole the show if it wernt for him it would of been a dire episode.However I did enjoy the grimshaw stuff it was very Grim for Jason
David stole the show yes but it wasnt the only storyline goine and it was far from direQuote:

Also, I'm surprised that David hasn't read whatever Ivy had to say about Gail in 1987 when she gave birth to Sarah, not knowing who her father was!
Lol I know Ive thought about me too and it makes me laugh, mabe she just wrote in it ocassionly or it was I hate Gail diray that she wrote in every so oftenQuote:

I also thought the pub scene with Emily, Noris Rita, Ken and Deirdre was good. Blanches seemed on fine form with her insults.
Corrie brilliant. David a real bugger, Bill/Maureen/Audrey great, Norris and Blanche hilarious, she never did have her row did she?
Steve adorable as ever, loved the fact that Paul my other "Adorable" as ever had the odd appearance.
Poor Steve is ever anyone was unlucky in love it is him.
More great viewing to come as certain situations on the street reach there conclusions and new crisis start.
I think david has been great, I havent liked him in the past but I think he saved the week's episodes.
