Good to see patient confidentiality maintained at Weatherfield General!

I would feel cheated if that all that is shown, no need to actually show what they do but indicate it happens behind closed doors.. there is enough shouting and yelling at each other going on in normal family life in soaps...

I think we have seen all the conversion therapy we are going to see. On Thursday on BBC 2 I watched a very interesting programme "Unforgivable" written by Jimmy McGovern, while not about conversion therapy, was about how therapy can help someone see things more clearly. You might want to have a look at this on iPlayer, if only to see what well written drama looks like, but I warn you, there are no laughs here.

Especially as she looks more like a footballer than the original Lily.
She is becoming Hope Mark 2.

I shall see if I can get it on catch-up, sounds interesting but then Jimmy McGovern's programmes are always worthy watching, imo

Uh-oh! A one afternoon stand between Abi and Carl. That can only mean one thing in Soapland!

I do hope not! Let us see Abi go to the chemist. There ought to be a chemist on the street or close to it.

[Son of Cain]

I was unsure whether Carl had a twinge of conscience or if he had completed the challenge of having Abi?

[Son of Cain]

When they recast a character I wish they would replace them with someone who looks or acts like the old actor. This Lily is nothing like the old Lily, she is a completey new character.
