Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

The whole fire story was poor. It was a bit of an insult to the fire service and unrealistic. Apparently the delay was because the ring road was closed. Fire control rooms are aware of what is happening in their area. They are directed to avoid closed roads, heavy traffic etc and if the and their control room can see where they are at a particular time. Fire crews would have been sent from other areas if the brigade initially sent had a problem attending. Then of course the following morning before the scene would have even cooled we had a fire scene examiner deciding the cause was a lighted candle. This in a building that was practically gutted and the seat of the fire was the candle which presumably would have melted in the intense heat. It would have taken an extensive forensic investigation to establish the cause. Furthermore someone died so it would have been a crime scene yet no sign of the boys in blue or SOCO/CSI.

As for the Ambulance presumably caught up on the Ring Road too and no motorcyclist available. Spend less money on pyrotechnics and a bit more on research
