Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

I don't understand why Carla and Peter's affair can save Frank in the rape trial, surely Carla is allowed to have another partner??? The evidence Frank has gathered is way after the rape occurred.

That's exactly what i thought. But I think he is going to try and prove that Carla was having the affair with Peter when the "alleged" rape took place and she was just accusing him as a way of getting out of their relationship...or something like that.

The prosecution will use it to destroy Carla's character. It's a common tactic it rape trials making it appear that she will jump into bed with any man. The fact that Peter is married makes it worse. Frank will say that the sex was consensual. This is one of the main reasons so few rapes lead to a successful prosecution. Wrong I know but unfortunately true.

I guess that they're happy with Becky's revenge. Don't think Hayley slaps people does she? Can't remember her hitting anyone.

Hayley even doubted Becky's innocent she should be mad as hell at Tracey ok maybe not hit but at least give her a verbal tongue lashing and Kylie would be feisty enough to hit Tracey I guess I just wanna see Tracey get a smack I could do it if I was allowed

Paul and Eileen are another couple with no chemistry in a boring storyline

Peter and Carla's affair coming out at the trial of course will help Frank as it shows Carla as kinda promiscuous sleeps with married men etc and she did jump in bed not too long after being raped with Peter not that should get Frank off though
