Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

It was lovely, to be sure, but I can't see Norris wanting to have a romantic relationship with Mary. She'd be over the moon if he does, though.

Well, Norris seems always to be missing some levels of testosterone. To make the leap to even a kiss would be a major development.

Really? He needs that aggravation again?? She didn't exactly have a calming effect on him.

If Sylvia said the right things she'd be the person who could help him the most - but would she say those things is the question...

I only liked Roy at Hayley's funeral tbh, Dennis annoyed me big time inviting him and Rita for dinner and welcoming Roy to the pub like it was a party

Poor Steve, Michelle gets more annoying all the time he deserves better

i hope they keep roy single, i think he has his true love match/soul mate in hayley and he would be the type of person to love and mourn her for the rest of his life

I agree with this

I agree with this

I do agree that would be the most likely outcome in real life, but I wouldn't want to see Roy miserable for the rest of his life. I hope he can eventually find happiness again, but not for at least a year or two (which is a long time in soapland).

She hardly ever did so would she start now? Poor Haley was always trying to smooth things over with her as I recall. Also, Stephanie Cole had left the show suddenly due to ill health which forced a rewrite of Haley's cancer storyline. The character had been due to play a key part in Hayley's exit storyline and the scripts have had to be quickly rewritten to account for Stephanie's exit.

Actually, Stephanie left suddenly because of the death of her brother, but was due to leave very soon anyway because her contract was up, which is why she didn't come back. It was her decision not to renew her contract. See the 23rd August comment on her Twitter feed:

So she was never going to play a role in Hayley's cancer storyline in the long term.
