They're not. They would return all belongings to the owner or next of kin. Alan's point though was that they would still be held for evidence. They would be returned once the trial was over.Quote:

It's actually a better excuse than it sounds. Flying with a middle ear infection can cause extreme pain and even a ruptured ear drum due to air pressure changes.Quote:

I've come to the conclusion that the Leanne/Steve/Michelle baby storyline isn't being taken too seriously by the actors involved (except perhaps Jane Danson). The other three appear to me to be having a lot of fun, and I'm also taking it in that spirit.
It was good to see Eileen (eventually) supportive of Todd and Billy.

It looks like he's phoning it in half the time, again, I like Bruno and Todd the character, so I don't mind that much. It's just.. it's kinda unfair to call Billy a bad actor when they're both pretty bad imo. Todd has some acting ticks that annoy me a lot. But whatever, this was just a stupid rant, lol, sorry to get off topic. BTW, this is a soap and imo they're doing ok enough. I've seen actors much worse too, like certain actors on EastEnders.
I think both Daniel Brocklebank and Bruno Langley are good actors, and a lot more talented than many others in Corrie. I haven't seen any comments denigrating Daniel's acting; in fact the general consensus according to what I've read online is positive for both actors. A lot of people were against Todd and Daniel getting together but the couple appears to be more or less accepted now, and that's in no small part down to the actors playing their budding relationship convincingly.Quote:

However, acting ability is subjective so people have widely different opinions of talent. Even Meryl Streep isn't universally applauded! :eek:
(By the way, I don't think discussions of acting ability - or lack thereof - of the Corrie cast is off topic for this thread. :))
I was just going to say that I take it all back, lol. Actually.. not completely. I still think Daniel and Bruno are doing an OK job, but at the same time I have seen better actors too. They're not the worst though, definitely. After seeing the preview clip for next week I realized that there are other actors on Corrie who are much worse (even if there is a LOT of hate for Daniel Brocklebank's acting in particular, don't know why), like Antony Cotton. I just watched the preview clip for next week and I bursted out laughing. His delivery of lines was so cringeworthy and not at all convincing that I just sat there. My jaw was on the floor. I could not believe what I was seeing. He couldn't even act upset, it's like he didn't care. Actually.. he didn't act. I wouldn't call that acting. He was just.. "not there". I don't understand why he's still on the soap? Like even if Daniel and Buno's acting isn't perfect, at least they try, at least they take it seriously, which is more than can be said about Antony Cotton. I was borderline disgusted by what I saw.Quote:

That's not to say I dislike Sean but he's better in light-hearted storylines. He didn't make for a convincing partner for Billy which is why they've been split up and Billy put with Todd (who, on paper at least, is even less suited to the vicar, but the actors make the relationship work).Quote:
