Wouldn't he have been a child in the 60s?

If you've been looking at IMDB they always put the start date in brackets after the title of the show. When they state Connor McIntyre is known for Coronation Street (1960) that date refers to when Coronation Street started and not to when Connor McIntyre appeared in it. It's confusing to say the least.

You've put me right in a few seconds there, thanks. Fancy me misunderstanding the IMDB page there.
Yes, I obviously did think that was his first starring role in Corro - assuming he wasn't starring as someone's baby for a while! Ken didn't babysit, him did he?

Note to self: Must try harder, pay more attention in class.

I've been caught out by it before and I'm sure we're not the only ones. :D

Please will someone puncture that football and transfer Tommy Orpington to somewhere like Exeter or Plymouth.

Terrible acting from Buffoon MacDonald.

It was appallingly bad, the whole scene with Tim and Kevin and that bloke from Hollyoaks was embarrassing.

Steve McDonald is one of the most ruined Corrie characters of recent times - right up there with Gail. Both have been turned from decently acted, interesting and realistic characters to clownish buffoons. Steve in particular has been a long time favourite of mine ever since his days of being a slightly edgy and amoral young man, but I'm finding it impossible to find anything positive to say about him any more.

He and Tim fawning over the footballer (who I thought was Oscar winning material in comparison to those two idiots) were just embarrassing. It came across like big kids playing up for the camera not actors doing a scene. :thumbsdow
