Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[alan45]

What an appalling couple of episodes tonight. The whole Marc/Marcia storyline is so pitifully bad it's embarrassing. It's so pointless and a shameful waste of two great actors. Phil Collinson has totally ruined this once great show. Corrie needs a clearout from the management down. Get rid of pointless characters, idiotic storylines and use the established characters undoubted talents

Jim Shelleys 10 reasons on why Corrie is rubbish

1. Too much crime. Chasing *EastEnders-style headlines led to John Stape’s mass-murder spree.

2. Fiz. The wailing redhead should be locked up for GBH of the earhole.

3. Sian and Sophie. Who thought two teenage lesbians could be so dreary?

4. Mark the transvestite. Pairing him with Audrey Roberts shows realistic plots have gone out of the window.

5. Humour. Corrie’s camp wit has gone. Sylvia is no Blanche and even Norris and Mary have struggled.

6. Steve & Becky. A badly scripted break up of another great couple.

7. Stella. Michelle Collins should have grown into the role. But she’s already found her long-lost daughter.

8. Sally & Kev. She had a boyfriend, he lived in the conservatory, and now no one knows if they’re together.

9. Sean and his baby. Antony Cotton cannot carry a major storyline.

10. Everyday life. The small stories that were Corrie’s staple diet *disappeared with Graeme’s ladder.

He forgot to mention Traceyluv, the ridiculous XIN saga and the charity that never was

The girl who plays Sophie is a terrible actress

How is Kevin and the baby back in with Sally?

Amber seems to have a had a personality change as she dont have one and seems bitchy

Marc looks young for Audrey maybe he could take up with Gail

How is Kevin and the baby back in with Sally? Kevin broke his arm in the garage ''accident'' and was unable to look after Baby Jack so Sally agreed to him moving back into the marital home but not the marital bed ........................................ YET!!!!

Amber seems to have a had a personality change as she dont have one and seems bitchy Thats because she has been expelled from Uni and her personality change may be due to the fact that the scriptwriters have decided its time for another young lesbian on the street.

Marc looks young for Audrey maybe he could take up with Gail

That would be all she needs with her history of men

I actually don't mind the Mark/Marcia storyline, and think the actor who plays Mark is good. He and Audrey are good together, although I agree he looks a bit young for her.

I hope James does fullfill his threat and sends Tracey back to prison

I hope James does fullfill his threat and sends Tracey back to prison

ahahaha, might be worth it just for that! poor little amy though, but at least the girl playing her can act now

[Katy]

yeh she was quite good wasnt she last night little Amy! Really believable! better than the two she was sharing the screen with!

[Katy]

Poor Leanne! Two Good episodes on Friday, probably down to the fact there was very little sophie and no Mark/Marcia.

Even Stellas growing on me.

[Dazzle]

Yeah, great episodes last night. The fact that Peter and Leanne had a lot of screen time helped too.

I notice that Roy's Rolls has grown an extra room behind the counter without explanation. I wish that the soaps would show building work being done before changing sets, to make differences believable.
