Corrie spoilers week beginning 8th october

[Dazzle]

Maybe its just me but I think the storywriters are trying to make Gloria one of the main characters in Corrie just as they tried and failed with St. Ella . Unlike St. Ella the character is good but only in small doses. She is well played by Sue Johnson unlike St.Ella but too much exposure at the expense of other characters is not the way to go about it. After all Blanche who apparently she is supposed to replace was never a leading character and Maggie Jones was a superb actress.

I agree with you, Alan, but I can't help but enjoy Gloria's scenes as she's such a great actress, and I'm even enjoying her and Stella's banter. I have to admit that the storyline of Gloria trying to win pub of the year when she's just arrived is totally ridiculous.
