DAvid and Kylie!!!

[Perdita]

I think David always went off the rails when he was feeling really insecure and threatened. Maybe Max's dad Callum will push his buttons again which will bring Kylie back eventually ... I still think Dave and Kylie are well suited and can make this work ...

They should have a social services building in corrie by the sounds of it. I think Sally is one of the few good parents on the street despite her snobish behaviour she has been consistant with her kids throughout, Anna and Eileen ok too.

Very behind in episodes but just saw how horrible David was to kylie on Wednesdays episodes when she was reaching out for support

[Perdita]

Not always easy to give support when you are scared and don't really understand what the other person is going through. David needs to get his head around Kylie being an addict and needs to get informed himself about what would be the best support for Kylie ... I would have dragged her to a doctor to get help, but that is too easy in soaps

[parkerman]

Actually it's usually far too easy in soaps. They usually just walk into the doctor's and get seen right away. No need for appointments, no being told, "Sorry, can't do it today. Come back tomorrow." If only it was that easy in real life.....

[Perdita]

But at least it shows them getting help ... might not be a realistic time frame in parts of UK (or everywhere in UK) but at least it might give good advice to viewers who are affected by the storyline ... as long as there is hope ....

Yes, I wasn't really disagreeing with the point you were making, i.e. that David should be doing more to help Kylie and maybe take her to the doctor.

It was a more general gripe I have about the way soaps in general seem to think that everything runs smoothly and you can just walk into the doctor's and voila she/he sees you right away or, like Tosh in Eastenders, put down a deposit in the morning and the flat's yours by the afternoon, no previous references, no bank check etc. etc.

However, yes, I agree with the point you were actually making.

Kylie never turned to drugs during all the stuff with Nick and her splitting with David but does now because Max needs to take medication for adhd, it is rushed for her exit storyline

Kylie looked obviously pregnant on the sofa in her white jumper so spoiled scenes for me.

Maybe it is the fact she had medication for Max that brought back her addiction ???
