Maria has told the police that it was Caz using the card but they don't believe her. It doesn't look like they're even investigating her claim at the moment (which I hope they would have to do in real life).

This week has shown the weakness in Coronation Street, with weak scripts and poor acting.

Didn't Maria tell Kirk she was expecting a new credit card in the post just before she went away and to look out for it. I can't recall the police ever speaking to Kirk ,which would have been a priority considering he was left in charge of the flat in Marias' absence. Also the police were going to check cctv footage at the cashpoint where the card was used,don't recall any result and even if no facial i/d they're completely different physically.

I liked the Nazir stuff. Yasmeen in particular has become a good character in my opinion. Also, I enjoyed Michael beating Phelan and Vinny at poker, and his discussion with Anna about the former.

Unfortunately, although I thought the Caz stalking Maria storyline sounded intriguing on paper (or should that be on screen? ), the way it's playing out is extremely disappointing.

No police would act in such a callous way......and there is no body !!!!

The Maria/Caz story gets worse with every passing episode.

I don't care about most of these characters anymore.

Same here.

Ironically, the only characters I cared about in Monday's episodes were two I've previously disliked the most: Anna and Michael. Anna is so much more sympathetic and human coping with her awful burns, and Michael's far more compelling when he's needling Phelan knowingly rather than simpering and cringing.

I'm really disappointed David isn't wracked with guilt over Anna's injuries. He's a psycho but not quite a full blown one, and I hoped his apparent initial deep guilt about Anna (which lasted all of one episode!) would add another dimension to his character. I should have known that was asking too much!

The less said about the idiotic Caz/Maria storyline the better!
