I do not need the ratings to prove how good Corrie is at the moment they just confirm what is obvious. Its still Britains most popular soap. If its getting so many viewers during its present lull then once the promisede winter storylines kick in then it should be hitting well over 10 million.
Please do not insult me when you reply to my posts.
Apart from Ashley/Claire/Casey, what else could be described as 'sensational' or 'unrealistic' right now in Corrie?Quote:

Those facts speak for themselves.
If the people on here want to convince themselves Corrie is great let them but I and the critics know otherwise.
Corrie is now seen as the new Brookside with the press. Some are losing respect for it.

You and the critics are experts then and I suppose we should all bow to your superior knowledge:rotfl:Quote:

I really dont know why you bother continuously returning on here with the same attitude.

So really you want to send us back several hundred years and suppress people's opinions, and only listen to the ones you agree with. I think you will find people are free to give any view on the show right now. Democracy shall not be destroyed, at least not on this forum.Quote:

Who says that? And for those that do, I'd like to look at the context of the reviews.Quote:

Quite frankly, alan & Richie, I don't know why you bother with Mr KarlD. It's not worth it.
When I proved him wrong about something he was saying on the EE board he disappeared for a week and has, in fact, never come back to the EE board, not even to apologise to me for some of his remarks.
Just let him stew in his own ratings.:thumbsup:
Karl D is not a he but a well known SHE.:eek:Quote:

Guy... come on, play nice. I agree ratings don't mean anything, they can be adjusted to suit the program but I also agree that everyone opinion is valid. Yes you can challenge it but please don't knock anyone opinion. I wish this Corrie V EE (my soap is better than your) would stop.
If you want to says something good or bad about a soap that is fine but please no personal comments about anyone on this site. Anyone caught doing it in the future, will be banned. You all have been warned.
