Tracy Barlow

I much prefer Stella over Tracey

Fair point Tammy2, at least she tried to kill Ian Beale ,in another life. I just think The Rovers Return tends to be a focal point of the soap, and needs more of a character. I'm sure their must be some talented unknown actors who would jump
at the chance . I know I'm a bit of a misery ,but all that Stella's done done so far is keep ranting on about Leanne who she's taken 30 years to find and could have looked her up in the phone book.

I think its pitiful the way that TPTB at Corrie are doing everything to promote these two talentless actors. Tracy with her wooden acting and Stella with her dodgy accent. The storylines involving the two of them are pitiful and like the coal from China, far fetched. There are numerous actors who could have taken over the bar at T'Rovers rather than bringing in an EE reject. ITV should have spent the money they wasted on Kate Ford to entice Karen back. That would have at least been believable and Surranne Jones is ten times better than Tracyluv and Stella Artois. Bad enough that we have these two talent deficient actors but the other so called star is on her way back too. Kym Marsh.

They could always bring in Louisa Lytton as well, I understand she's looking for a job.

Then we could see what bad acting really is!

Absolutely spot on Alan45 ,I think as soon as the Marsh factor reappears this forum will be red hot with comments about the three of 'em.

Coronation Street's Kate Ford has revealed that she is embarrassed by her birth scene.

The actress, who plays Tracy Barlow in the ITV1 serial, acted out the birth of her character's daughter Amy in 2003.

Ford told Closer: "Giving birth to Amy was without a doubt the most embarrassing scene I've ever filmed. I had to record a track of birthing noises for them to insert at relevant bits.

"It was awful. There was a whole male crew standing around while I stood there groaning. It was like When Harry Met Sally."

Referring to Tracy's recent fling with Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson), she added: "I don't know what is wrong with those two - they don't learn. Two one-night stands, two babies! Tracy is mortified.

"But she also has this glimmer of hope that it will bring them closer. And she loves being a mum to Amy, so she has lots of different emotions."

If my memory serves me right the noise of a woman having an orgasm (as in When Harry Met Sally) is somewhat different to that of a woman giving birth

Most definite Alan, I don't ever remember screaming "get this ****ing thing out of me" during sex

[Chloe O'brien]

Yeah I'm pretty sure I never said "either cut it oot or leave me to die in peace" to Marley's dad.

It just shows what a great actress Kate Ford is when she can make having a baby sound like having an orgasm.
