I'm thinking of moving up to Weatherfield as they have the best health service in the country. Gary is referred to a psychologist by his GP on Thursday and is seen for a full assessment on Friday. Amazing.

Dont forget to mention the home visit by the GP another relic of the past

OMG what a couple of pitiful episodes last night. The dramatic scenes by serial moaner Samia Smith were completely overshadowed by the idiotic storyline involving the pantomime Dame Mark/Marcia and him/her sticking his/her face in a conveniently situated cream cake. Pure slapstick. As if the Gerbil wouldnt have known the difference between foundation cream and dairy cream. Then in another scene reminiscent of a piss poor seventies comedy the door handle comes off in his/her hand. This was so cringeingly bad that I felt sorry for all involved.

The we had the equally embarrassing scenes between Stella and Leeanne. I had thought that there could be noting worse than her dodgy accent and poor acting. I was wrong. Her attempt at singing Row Your Boat was worse than an accent which not only changes between scenes but even changes mid sentence.

How pitiful was the Gerbil when working in the Bistro last night.

Get rid of these idiotic storylines NOW if Corrie is to have any hope of picking up any awards at all.

I thought the actor who plays Chris did well last night but was let down by the other actresses involved Maria and Cheryl

I liked the Stella and Leanne scenes

I agree about the stupid :"slapstick comedy" from Marc, Audrey and Gail awful to watch

Absolutely right. That was just so excrutiatingly embarrassingly toe-curlingly dreadful to think that the scriptwriters and producer could even have thought that that was a good thing to do is beyond belief.

Well, at least Coronation Street must have reached its nadir now and can't get any worse than that.....


or can it?

[Dazzle]

The thing I don't get is one minute the Corrie writers are treating the Marc/Marcia storyline as a serious topic, the next they're treating it as a something to poke fun at.

Like tammy, I enjoyed the Stella and Leanne scenes, and thought Stella's accent has improved.

Chris' brain tumour doesn't interest me at all, I'm afraid.
