Paul's Exit Revealed

[alan45]

Now I'm confused the storyline airs in June and they are filming the exit scenes this week and next o.k that all ties in, but in the interview with Alison she said that Sean isn't leaving until July?? , which would put the storyline in terms of screentime round about Aug/Sept time but doesn't tie in with the filming time?

So maybe Paul doesn't actually die in the car crash but later in hospital, so he could well be in a coma for a month or so which would start off the afteramth..or maybe he comes round then dies later??

Still all will be revealed in time. Still think that he shouldn't of been killed off but made to do a runner instead very fitting with the character. Deaths and prison exits are becoming boring.
Still excellent viewing from Corrie with more coming up in the aftermath of it all which will be very sad but excellent.

I agree. On Corrie they dont raise the dead. Paul doing a runner leaves the way open for a possible return in the future and would leave endless possibilities for future storylines. I think they are being short sighted killing him off

Part of me thinks maybe it was Sean himself who wanted the character killed off,yes sure it is going to be very dramatic (or more correct to say traumatic for me ) but I do think that it would of been far better to have him do a runner (or for him to fake his death) and the way would of been paved perfectly for this to of have happened. Paul obviously is going to lose it big time so he won't be thinking straight, perfect revenge on Carla for her betrayal and letting Liam/Michelle be free of him to have a happier life.

Like you said great and endless possibilities for a future return, even just the odd one now and then, the first being a shocker.

Another great character whom will be gone forever...

CORONATION Street hooker Leanne Battersby has been given the boot by men before - but never like this.

In the latest shock storyline, Leanne is put through a terrifying kidnap ordeal by factory boss Paul Connor.

He bundles her into the boot of his car and drives off at high speed. Minutes later, Paul is killed when he crashes the Mercedes.

Leanne, on the other hand, walks away with just a broken rib.

The dramatic scenes happen after Paul calls an escort agency and arranges to meet a high-class prostitute in a hotel room.

When Leanne turns up to offer her services, both she and Paul are mortified. He thought she was a property sales executive - she thought he was happily married.

Paul, played by Sean Gallagher, is forced to tell wife Carla - Alison King - that he uses prostitutes.

Carla, in turn, tells Paul's brother Liam, played by Rob James-Collier, as he has been dating Leanne.

A Corrie source said: "Paul is furious it has all come out and is really drunk when he meets Leanne to sort something out.

"He bundles her in the boot as he tries to think what to do next. Minutes later, he crashes and is thrown through the windscreen.

"Luckily for Leanne, her being in the boot means she only suffers a cracked rib and cuts and bruises."

The scenes will be shown next month.
