Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[Perdita]

Was it just me or didn't people seem particularly scared or panicked during the fire? Apart from Sophie, I would have expected more people to be frantic, in tears etc. They were all just sort of milling about!

With the amount of tragedy that has struck that little street over the last 50 years, I think the residents have become a bit used to grim and sad events ... but seriously. people tend to react totally differently to how you would expect in unexpected and frightening situations,, especially when a few get involved in rescue operations
