At least we both agree that Katherine Kelly's acting was superb.Quote:

I really enjoyed how scared Tracey was when Becky was smashing up her house :D
I know Becky was a little too handy with that sledgehammer. And John ain't dead never seen that one coming.
You would have thought that Steve would have fessed up about making the phone call a lot sooner to stop Becky smashing the Barlow's place to pieces
I was amazed that he was allowed to wander around the hospital with a baby in his arms all due to the apparently invincible power of a white coat. and why wasn't there any CCTV in the part of the hospital car park where he fell?Quote:

Well the continuation of the John Stape saga gets even more stupid than before. Does anyone actually research things nowadays. Just where did that stupid DS get the power to arrest Fiz on suspicion of Murder. He had absolutely no grounds. He had no evidence to implicate her in Colin Fishwicks death. No-one can say if he was actually murdered and certainly not the Soap Police. They havent even found a body yet let alone established whether or not it is that of the late Mr Fishwick. IMHO the only power of arrest he would have had was for assisting an offender and procuring the unlawful disposal of a body. That aside when he had her back at the Nick he announced his presence for ''the benefit of the tape'' and totally omitted to mention either his colleague or Fiz's brief. Shoddy research and poor scriptwriting.
While Im on my soapbox how totally unprofessional was Cheryl when Dev's card was declined. She insisted in a loud voice in front of The Aunties that there was nothing wrong with the card and then when Dev who lives 3 doors down from the restaurant and is a personal friend of the owner offered to sort the matter out she made a huge fuss. That's what you get if you employ a lap dancer as a Restaurant Manager
RANT OVER
Yes, I noticed that and remarked on it to my other half.Quote:

Corrie seems more concerned with sensationalism these days than decent scriptwriting. I fear it's going downhill at the moment
