Coronation Street Corrie

[Ome]

As for boring James, the writers didn’t get rid of him, it was actually the actor’s choice to leave.

Ah well then.


Thank you for accepting the actor’s resignation.

James as a character could have been Corrie gold but I think sadly, the actor wasn’t up to it. If the Bailey’s stick around, I would warm to the idea of James returning with a new head.

Am Dram describing Corrie perfectly right now.

However, it is comfort viewing now the dark nights are drawing in and an easy watch.

Billy's new friends will no doubt turn out to be a sinister couple, which is always entertaining, sadly it will mean more screentime with Summer.

Sam did make me howl when he said to Leanne about not being academic.

They are spoiling us with Ken and his past dwellings....

With Martha coming back reminds me of the wonderful Blanche describing her:

'Ken recently had an affair with an actress. Oh - it wasn't Nicole Kidman or Glenda Jackson - she lives on a tugboat.'

I remember Peter Barlow referring to Martha as “Captain Crumpet!”

Todd has been a good support to Summer. I did smile at that porta loo outside number 1. I love Tracy.

I like the seriousness surrounding Max’s new story groomed by a gang of racists, but it’s difficult to take it in after watching the brilliant drama THE WALK IN. I know Corrie can’t do it the justice it needs, but I hope they push it at far as they can.

 

[Walford Boy]

There are some positives in CS if you look. The Max storyline is very interesting, loving Glenda at The Rovers and anything Tracy does is Corrie Gold. Loved the mention of the leading ladies that resided at Number 1.

 

[Walford Boy]

CS has been on form this week. Hard hitting but there has been light and shade.

I’m really struggling at the moment with the amateur dramatics story arc involving Ken, Wendy, Mary and Brian.

I’m finding it painfully boring to watch.

Apparently, Martha AKA Stephanie Beacham is back in the show tonight.

Yes Stephanie appeared in tonight's episode. The only thing you can say is it is an easy watch, very watchable but for all the wrong reasons.

 

[Englishboy]

I liked Martha a lot when she was originally in it in 2009.

It’s a shame her returning is part of a silly storyline.

 

[Walford Boy]

I quite enjoyed tonight's, a good alternative to the football. The Leanne and Nick scenes were good and I quite liked Ken and Martha together again.

I don't know what is going on in the background with Corrie, but after Wednesday's episode, I can see a couple of staff getting sacked. What were they thinking, airing a full hour without any Summer in it?

 

[Walford Boy]

I just love Glenda behind the bar, the best barmaid in soap for a very long time. Jodie Prenger is a perfect fit for Corrie.

I was watching Strike (new series) and recognised this man, I googled him and realised it was from Corrie many years ago - Actor Ian Radford

But.............. I have no recollection of his character or what happened to him

I cannot remember the name of his character but he lived in one of the houses on the posh side of the cobbles and was in a relationship with Audrey Roberts.

I have no recollection of his exit storyline either.

He was the grandad to Craig & Katy Harris. I think he moved into the Harris house after Tommy Harris was murdered by his daughter, Katy and I think the mother Angela took the blame and went to prison. Later Katy took her own life.

Later Keith had some big feud with Charlie Stubbs who ended up getting the house which I think was his exit story.
