Ken rant, Ken hasn't had a quality rant since Deirdre got jiggy with Baldwin.
She must be putting bromide in his tea, 'there's no go in the boy' as we say.
Needs to take both his kids and slap them up and down the street like they used to do in the old days.
Complete and utter Shower, the pair of them.
He can go a lot more nasty than he did tonight, so nasty a little bit lasts all year and I can't stand the character at any time
I think the things he said to Carla were so cruel. That was a whole new low and I don't even particularly like the girl and think most of this she brought on herself.
Well I used to like Carla and Peter, but I'm starting to think Both Carla and Leanne would be better off without him as the only thing Peter seems to truly love and can stay faithful to is a bottle of plonk!:rolleyes:
Yeah good going Ken, just leave your bladdered son to wander the streets aimlessly while he can hardly move.:rolleyes:
We're supposed to believe that Carla's still the one he wants and that whole grand declaration to Leanne was all in a bid to get Simon back, but that scene was the most genuine he's came across in a long time (albeit he did also in the final scene, where did bemoan that 'even Carla's had enough of him').
Part of me wonders how far in advance Carla and Peter's breaks were known; it's strange to bring in Carla's brother just before she jets off, and after watching tonight's episode especially it does seem that a Carla/Peter break-up and a gradual reunion with Leanne was the natural progression of the storyline.
All-in all, one of my favourite episodes, and the progression in that whole saga was much-needed. I actually underestimated the writers tonight. Firstly I thought the rape would be brushed under the carpet where Rob's concerned, and then at the end I really expected a groundhog day scenario with Peter blaming all his problems on Ken; the omission of the latter I am extremely grateful for.
The bullying storyline is just descending into farce, along with everything else Packham is brought into in his 'professional' capacity. The bullying story could have been interesting, but now it's just all panto, with the bully's mother likely to be some caricature middle-class witch.
I'm finding Corrie extremely inconsistent of late.
He's a good actor. Despite everything he does, he still remains sympathetic.
Yes, I think so too. I think it's because he achieves such an amazingly accurate portrayal of alcoholism as a disease and the fact that most of can remember when he was a lot more likeable.
Plus it's hard not to feel sorry for someone who is ripping his relationship with his son to shreds, knows he's doing it, but can't do anything to stop it.
Everyone will defend Carla from Peter's words, but what he actually said was entirely the truth. Not that that's her fault entirely; they of course share the blame equally.
I remember Leanne was willing to move past the affair the very night she was told about it.
Peter, on the other hand, was not: "I love Carla," he said.
Hopefully she remembers that. As much as I liked their relationship when it was ongoing, I can't see any realistic way they could reconcile, unless it is years down the line.

Generally speaking they were happy IMO.
Yes.
True.
He wasn't totally drunk when he spoke to her.
My father was a school governor; no one was scared of me:)

He always means what he says at the time that he says it.
A good actress:)
Poor Tirrone.
Reminds me of Frank Muir talking about Joan Bakewell;)
Sorry the quoting went wrong.:o
