At least the current David story is giving Helen Worth her chance to show what a good actor she is instead of all this recent silly simpering nonsense she's had to portray. I thought she was excellent tonight.

I agree, it felt like the old Gail was back tonight.Quote:

I think there's enough families (platts, barlows, nazirs, websters, ty+fiz, roy +Cathy, tinkers, connors and rita, norris and mary + of course def &kids and leanne. And Mcdonald family..if they just wrote good storylines for them!!
Was there anyone who didn't see this one coming? Coronation Street has sparked official complaints after David Platt screamed b a s t a r d in a heated scene last night.
Tensions are running high on the cobbles this week as David's family have locked him up in the Bistro cellar, hoping to thwart his devastating plan to kill Clayton Hibbs and himself.
We all knew that David wouldn't react too well to being held prisoner, but some fans were still taken aback last night when he shouted: "Let me out so I can kill the *******!"
It's not the first time we've seen the B-word dropped in soaps pre-watershed, but Digital Spy can confirm that 20 viewers were outraged enough to make official complaints to the broadcasting regulator Ofcom.
Ofcom previously cleared rival soap EastEnders after Carol Jackson called her brother Max Branning a "*******" before the watershed, but only time will tell whether they'll be so forgiving when it comes to Mr Platt.
It's not just David sparking fan outrage, either. One viewer also contacted Ofcom this week to complain about Tracy Barlow's insensitivity after she made a jokey reference to the Titanic.
Admitting that the 1997 Titanic film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet made her feel sick, Tracy moaned: "That pair, hanging off the front of the ship shouting. It's pathetic. I was the only person in the cinema cheering for the iceberg."
Wow :eek: Some people must lead sad lives ...
People are far too sensitive! Did he say that? Didn't even notice.. So what?
He did say it, I heard it but I was surprised but not offendedQuote:
