Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[maidmarian]

Shame if it is going to be left at this ... so much heartache and misery caused to so many and do the others on the street believe Carla or Tracy? ....

The producer made a big point when.introducing
story that tho no legal punishment -Tracy would
fundamentally change and it would be life- changing
etc for her and the story go on well into Autumn.
Well - not much sign so.far.

As Corrie is such a small enclave- in real life
people would be much less accepting than they
seem to be.Its not like she lives streets away!!
Tracy would be ostracised in such a small area.

2 small points-
Its been mentioned due for change of producer
soon? Is this affecting development of story
perhaps?

And may Robs interventions - from prison-
affect things-he is Carlas brother?

...do the others on the street believe Carla or Tracy? ....

Alya and her family believe Carla, and so does Sophie. I'd bet most of the residents will believe Carla over Tracy (who's protestations of innocence have been pretty unconvincing and she hardly had a good reputation anyway).

Jason chose to intervene so surely even Eileen would have a hard time justifying blaming the Platts? I think it's a case of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

What surprises me more is that the Platts hired Jason and Tony when they must know they were responsible for Fiz and Tyrone's disastrous loft conversion. That wasn't even mentioned, yet I'm not sure it's common knowledge that the collapse was solely due to Todd's negligence.


On another site I saw people speculating about a Carla and Robert hookup after the lingering look she gave him at the end of Friday's second episode. However, I'm pretty sure that Carla was just questioning what he sees in Tracy given our recent discussion about Robert possibly having a secret agenda. She seems to genuinely love Nick at the moment anyway.

eileen keeping quiet at gail and her family over jason getting bashed don't seem in character for eileen, she loves any scrap she can have with gail

Max obviously teleported into the Bistro.

I'm still hoping we'll see evil David at some point. Perhaps in the live episode?

tracy starting a fire even unintentionally with amy in carla's flat would all believe that, i still think nazirs and sophie aren't fully convinced yet it was tracy

Ken could provide evidence to the fact that Tracy could not have known about him asking Carla to look after Amy that night .. a very strange request at the time, I thought, seeing Ken would have known how Tracy feels about Carla ...but this is soap life, of course. So Tracy saying she would never do anything to hurt Amy (apart from selling her to Roy and Hayley as baby) could be disproven
