Being deliberately vague here to avoid giving spoilers for those who are several months behind us but I had to laugh on Monday when those two women ended up having a physical fight in the street, rolling about in the road pulling hair and the rest of it! No for the intriqued, none of the factory girls were involved.

As for Sally, I hate how her character is evolving, she should get real.

Edited to add 'spoilers' in title, so now feel free to be more specific if you wish.

The scene with the women fighting in the street was so funny! I loved the look on Kirks face. There are so many good story lines going on in Corrie at the moment.
I never have liked Sally, she really annoys me! Isn't it great how Sally and Kevin’s youngest girl (I've forgotten he name) changes completely and no one even notices.

Sophie! Thats the one
Maybe she has a big story line coming up then, I can't think what. Or maybe the old actress got fed up of being an extra and stormed out of the studios vowing never to work there again.

Sally is SO annoying! Yes, I reckon Sophie will be getting jealous soon of her sister!

I wept tonight, that was so upsetting.

Back to the Sophie switch. I think the problem is that they take a baby and we see that baby getting older and older, they have acting forced upon them literally from being days old. Some will take to it but most will grow out of it, find that they really don't wish to make a career out of it. Sophie has now reached the age when children who are attending stage school and wish to become actors could play her part and I think this is what happens time and time again, once they get older a new person who actually WANTS to do it steps in and takes over the role. I am fairly sure that isn't the original Rosie either.

I must admit to being quite impressed with little Bethany this week, she got her lines correct and sounded authentic. It will be interesting to see what they do with her when she gets older, after all said and done, 'she' is played by a set of identical twins.

Ah, I have just checked and Rosie changed at the age of 9 and this is the 3rd Sophie as she changed in 1997 when she was 7 years old. David Platt changed over at the age of 10 and Nicky Tilsley changed (for the better) at the age of 15. We had three young Tracy Barlows over the years, now this adult one.

If you have never checked the Corrie website I can recommend it, just click here but be prepared for spoilers as it normally gives the plots for the coming week

I agree about Bethany, getting to be a bit chattier. And Chesney is a good character too!

What I am finding a little tiresome is this three episodes in an evening caper, twice was bad enough but three is beyond the pale. It is irritating to watch one episode, have an half an hour break, watch another episode then a couple of hours later to watch another - if only they could have one long episode instead. I know that isn't going to happen because it would clash with Eastenders but it is irritating.

For those outside the UK who have ventured in this thread, Eastenders is on BBC, Corrie is on the main commercial channel and they used to pit the two soaps against one another at 7.30pm until they realised people were recording one and watching the other, BBC caved in and rescheduled the timing of the episodes of Eastenders which clashed with Corrie as they both have a similar audience and Corrie was there first. That keeps audiences happy as they can watch both, the commercial channel have returned the compliment by not starting the second episode on a Monday until Eastenders has finished, hence the half hour break - very civilised the British TV companies.

I like Chesney! I think he is great! I didn't know that Bethany was played by twins, thay do that with quite a few young actors don't they? Did you notice that when Amy, Tracy's baby, was first born they used two different babies that looked very different. One had lots of brown hair the other had no hair.
I know what you mean sue, the three episodes a night thing is annoying (first one starting now!) why don't they just have an extra day with corrie on instead?

Sunday, Monday (at least two episodes), Wednesday, Friday - that doesn't leave us many Corrie-free days.

Three episodes on one night is too much - even though Coronation Street is good!

Maybe Corrie will take over the world someday! All there will ever be on TV is live streaming Coronation Street .
I feel really sorry for Todd at the moment, it's not like he has done anything major wrong.

As I keep telling my mother, it is only a television programme, it isn't real life - so why did I cry buckets this evening?

I nearly cried last night! It was so sad, im glad Todd went in the end and had his chance to say goodbye properly
