Whew! Some strong feelings about Sean here this Saturday morning.

I personally am not a fan because I think Antony Cotton is a poor actor, but there are many such currently starring in Corrie so I wouldn't single him out. In my view Kate Oates would do well to axe several long running characters of which Sean is just one (others being Fiz, Chesney, Tyrone, Kirk, Sinead, Dev, Anna, Tracy (although that'll never happen!) and others).

I agree Sean has every right to be angry and upset at the moment though. Everyone who's ever lost someone with whom they're deeply in love will recognise how he's feeling. Billy in particular should have been more sensitive about the whole thing.

It wasn't that long ago that he coldly and very deliberately hurt precisely the people he loves (Eileen and Jason)! They've forgiven him but it's not so easy to forget. Besides, he hasn't completely changed. I hope he wouldn't deliberately hurt his family again but he's still a bit of a bad 'un (and even warned Billy about it).

I like him just how he is at the moment personally: capable of great kindness but also with a dark edge. He's a very interesting character with a lot of depth - but he's no saint.

Phelan was being deliberately cruel when he said that because he wanted rid of Sean. There was a grain of truth to it so it made me laugh, but it was designed to exacerbate the situation.
