It has to get better or unfortunately it's finished..it won't survive.
I agree Corrie's nowhere near as compelling as it can be at the moment, and hasn't been for a couple of years now.Quote:

I do think it has more to do with the writing than the acting. A lot of the storyline hasn't rung true and it must have been difficult for the actors to make a good job of it.
I guess it also does not help when characters fall ill, you never know how long it takes for them to recover depending on illness and when female characters get pregnant and have to be written out for a certain amount of time to cover maternity leave...some storylines will have had to be re-written at short notice and depending on where the character featured in a storyline is, it can´t be easy to make it always more realistic to true life
yes the writing can be blamed and how is norris missing this funeral
simon asking steve he thought he had depression :p so did everyone
And now -totally out of character from Ken to be so cruel towards Tracy. Bit too harsh, whatever the reason for deirdre being away extra few weeks. Why didn't Ken go &visit her? I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't have or as a married couple that deirdre wouldn't have told Ken on the phone that she's ashamed of Tracy's affair with Tony (what a stupid reason anyway, Tracy has done far worse over the years and deirdre herself too..). Poor writing, that's it. I haven't cried once during this deirdre death -storyline, that says something. And deirdre was my favourite character ��

How did Bethany know her way to the Dog and Gun? Has she even been there before?
Perhaps she Googled it.
