Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

I think this latest killing by Stape is one too far. The story is a total joke now. Colins death could be explained. We didnt actually see him kill Charlotte so that could have been explained but tonights cannot be explained in any believable way. Its total CRAP!!!!!

I liked the character of John Stape but now he has become a joke and the sooner he goes the better

He throw a hammer at Charlotte's head that was too far

We didnt actually see that though so the scriptwriters could easily have changed the storyline to make it more believable instead of turning John Stape into a murderer

Although I agree with what you are saying - I got tired of this storyline several months ago! - I think they can explain Colin's mother's death quite easily. She was ill and dying. No-one (apart from Fiz) knows John was there. So presumably the death will be put down to natural causes, which, of course it was in a way.

The whole Stape/Murderer thing is laughable, and I think the production team are showing that they agree by using a photo of the guy who plays John Stape, complete with moustache and graduation outfit, as Mrs Fishwick's wall mounted photo of her son! Unless he had a head transplant at some point, the actor who played Colin Fishwick never looked like the guy in the photo, but as for the actor who plays John Stape..............

Im sure a good pathologist would be able to establish the cause of death was asphyxiation caused by someone blocking her mouth and nose. Then of course there was the freshcos meals for two which Im sure would lead to a checking of the CCTV. A check of telephone calls would lead to Johns mobile. Cell site analysis could put him at or near the scene. Even though he wiped her angina spray he then used his uncovered hands to place it in her hand.

All very true, but will they go into that much detail knowing she was at death's door anyway?

Yes, I did think that was really ridiculous, him wiping the spray and then placing it in her hand with his uncovered hand. Duh!

All deaths are treated as suspicious unless a death certificate or Coroners Letter are issued. Then again this is the Soap Plod we are talking about and Weatherfield CID havent got a great record for the quality of their investigations.

This could be a job for Walford's Inspector Marsbar....

Shouldnt Tracey be charged with saying it was Becky ???????????

I loved Peter impression of Andy from Little Britain
