Funeral Of Little Baby

[jennyjoan]

Regarding the above in Coronation Street and having read some posts about it today - I truly don't understand why Kym Marsh put herself through this again which was harrowing enough in real life but just as in acting life.

I don't care if any posters say that she done it because she came through it. There are other excellent actors out there.

Definitely too much for me and I could feel Kym Marsh' pain. Too much too much.

I think this is the best answer, from the actors themselves

Yes I knew the actor who plays Steve had lost 11 babies - just tragic.

[jennyjoan]

Read that Ducksie - Perhaps!

[ducksie]

I did read it and knew of it, that's why I shared it with you Jennyjoan

[ducksie]

Oh, sorry Jennyjoan, I misinterpreted your reply, yes, perhaps that why they found it good to do, to raise awareness and help themselves

[jennyjoan]

Well I couldn't do it - when my mother (different kettle of fish) but she died in my arms with wires and tubes attached. I was holding onto her not wanting her to go but you know she kept pulling away from me - she wanted to go. There were a lot of people around her bed and dopey me was singing and holding onto her.

Do you think I would like to act like that.

[ducksie]

No, I doubt it, I was in that very same position Jennyjoan, singing to mine as she slipped away and the rest of the family looked on

[jennyjoan]

But Ducksie you probably can sing - I would say everybody that was there had their fingers in their ears.

[ducksie]

Don't be hard on yourself Jennyjoan, everyone there was just thinking of the loss we were about to experience, nothing prepares anyone for it - young or old

Do they put instructions on the script for 1,2 or 3 frowns for the actor who plays Nick Tilsley or is it his natural expression.I could cheerfully give him a slap.

[ducksie]

I'll line up behind you, I can't see what's keeping him (or any of that family in the show)

[Smowball]

I agree grumpy - he's getting very irritating.
