Looks like closing the old thread and opening a new one has killed the conversation, maybe the last few posts should have been copied over.

I don't think it was wise of Ken to burn the money.
If he didn't know the trouble Adam would be in, well ok, but he did, he knew Adam had to return the money so he now plays a part in whatever happens next.

I suspect that was intended to give him a storyline

Oh yes, but Tracey only murdered someone....

Whatever Tracy does she gets forgiven always by Ken and before him Dierdre. Obviously Adam will not leave and hopefully he will do something with his life but will hate Ken even more. I do not understand Ken's thinking. He made matters worse by burning the money. You would have thought he would feel guilty not judgemental.

I don't like Ken anymore. At least before he had Deirdre to keep him on the right track. Sooner he goes, the better. And I hate to say this as I've always liked Ken&Deirdre.

This part of the dialogue seemed reminiscent of a Carry On film last night.
Sean bringing Sinhead her cocktail:
Sean: There you go, I’ve even sugared the rim for you.
Liz: You don’t get an offer like that every day.

Ooh err, missus...

I think the Ken Barlow character has had it's day and is due for retirement, maybe returning for the odd cameo appearance. Used to be OK for interaction with Roy or Audrey and of course Deidre and Blanche. But is now swamped with all the events around Peter, Daniel ,Adam. Too much airtime for what is now a weak character. For me Corrie is crying out for some good earthy ,streetwise people , inject some fresh life into the street.
