Corrie

[elliemay1]

Did anyone else think that the storyline where Becky and Kylie got Tracey's medical notes was totally far-fetched and farcical? I do realise it's not true (!) but the writing was very weak and spoiled an otherwise good idea.

i have gone past the point of no return with corrie, and if i watch it's half heartedly, and even then the storylines seem so extreme. if she gives a proverbial kicking to that awful tracey barlow, and the actress who plays her, then fine. But my mind goes elsewhere when do watch, preferably something more entertaining

[LoftyLottie]

I didn't realise how easy it was to get onto computers in Medical Centres and immediately locate a patient's notes!! ;0). Totally daft! But I am still watching.

Agree with 2shortplants, there has to be an element of reality.

lol things never work that quickly when i pop in to the office to print something out...
Far fetched yes, but gotta see Becky's exit, sha was a great character most of the time

..............and it's the wedding tonight!!

[andy-hughes]

I stopped watching regularly some years ago because the characters were becomning increasingly unpleasant, and liasons increasingly far-fetched.

the 'jump the shark' moment occured for me when Carla declared that she had 'always loved' Peter Barlow!!!!

This is a woman who would only have to step out in a public area and snap her fingers to see a queue of men form to ask her out, 'falling' for a boke who looks like a reflection in the back-end of a spoon with the personality of a tea-tray and the morals of an alley cat.

I'm all for people pairing off, but let's have a semblance of possibility about it!

[emmie]

she is going to stuff tracey hopefully, a character i cannot abide.

I think the writers are very insulting to the viewers of Corrie. I 'm a lifelong fan but find I've gone right off it because of weak and totally unbelievable storylines. We know it's not true but come on, give it SOME credibility!

[craft1948]

^^ Andy is first in that queue :-)

[horseshoes]

LOl Lol Lol @ andy hughes

[elliemay1]

Realistically, Roy and Haley would have advised her to go to the police. After all, she did go to them initially. I agree with Horseshoe that the writers are insulting us loyal viewers.

[chelle7272]

She did go to the Police didn't she - for false accusations? Not sure what came of it though

[LoftyLottie]

Now come on Andy - Peter's not ugly by any means - morals of an alley cat, yes I would agree, but then so has Carla!! Both are alcoholics. Well suited!!! ;o)

[andy-hughes]

Hi Lottie,

OK, I may have gone a bit OTT about Peter, I know a lot of women think he is attractive, but it is his personality that makes me wonder why Carlas has fallen for him.

Jealous? Moi? Too RIGHT!!!

[looobylooo]

and the storyline with becky and that new fella i think is a bit unrealistic, too.

soo, her exit then, will it be she jets off to sunny barbados with him?

[emmie]

time becky did her own thing, good actress

[smurfchops]

I haven't watched it for years. Too far fetched.

[elliemay1]

Yeh,new fella for Becky storyline also unrealistic. He is gorgeous though in real life I don't think Becky would be his type. He seems so quiet and sensible. I know Carla is beautiful but I can't stand her voice.

[LoftyLottie]

In real life he wouldn't fancy Becky because he likes fellas. But he sure is gorgeous.

Agree about Carla's voice though. And don't let Andy see this, but she does have a Miss Piggy nose!!

[Postdog]

She sure got that glass of water quickly!
