Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

kylie is bound to have seen photos of sarah and bethany from gail or david in the past

Bethany does look older than she is but I don't think she looks old enough for Kylie to mistake her as David's girlfriend.

My thinking when I said Kylie might think Bethany was David's new girlfriend was that yes, Kylie will have seen pictures of Bethany, but if Bethany was a bit younger in them (say 10 or 12) without a face full of make up, she would look quite different and it might not occur to Kylie who she was at first sight. Also, who studies photos of other people's relatives closely?

Bethany is a 14 year old who can pass for 18 with full make-up (she was served in the pub remember) so I still think she could looks old enough to be David's girlfriend at first glance (he's in his mid twenties).

It's my experience when tragedies like this happen that people rally round and support ALL the victims. No-one gets blamed as people realise it's an accident.

But this is Coronations Street I suppose, the land of the scapegoat.

Especially given leaving a candle lit is an accident that could happen to anyone.

Maybe it should be renamed Scapegoat Street?

Spoiler:

Kylie does think that Bethany is David's girlfriend. It's in Paula Lane's latest interview with Digital Spy.

No, she heard her asking Amy if she'd lit the candle.

No, she heard her asking Amy if she'd lit the candle.

ok hope she messes up and gets herself caught out but don't think stuart b wants her caught

Carla did not request that Leanne run into her flat when its on fire and take her boyfriend with her. She was unconcious. So do not understand why Leanne feels she can shout at carla re the candle incident. Most fires happen because of silly mistakes.

[Perdita]

Leanne is in shock and mourning ... people say a lot of hurtful stuff under those circumstances, easy to blame somebody for their loss. Tracy however knows that SHE lit the candle and is responsible for the fire .... I so hope she gets found out in the very near future

[lizann]

tracy stirred it too for leanne implying drunk carla left lit candle which caused the fire, tracy lit the fire under leanne too so to lash out and blame carla who herself now thinks she is at fault

if this is dragged out long time with tracy being redeemed with her ex husband and mother's death so her part in fire is forgotten about, viewers will be made, fire week wasn't a big hit for the show alot of negativity as very predictable outcome and stupid plot holes
