At least half of the deadwood need to go i.e Michelle, Sean, Nazirs, Kirk, Chesney, Emily etc loads more but I'll be here for ever. This bus crash was a perfect opportunity but the most hurt is Sinead even she survives.

My list would be the nazirs, sean,sinead,chesney,kirk,maria,craig,faye,katy and izzy. Can't think of an more (at the moment)
I'd love to know who told the Corrie bosses that Sean is much loved. I always thought he was a bit of a disappointment after Corrie's first gay storyline with Todd. It was like right now let's get in the most inoffensive, non-sexual, "funny" gay character we can and have him there. Your Nan will love him.
Even his new "romance" has had about as much heat, as a day old bowl of porridge. I mean come on, time to put the sex back into homosexual. Don't even get me started on Todd.
I agree about Mary, I was unsure at the start but I think she is fabulous.
When Corrie create a good character, they really nail it and I think Mary is very Corrie.
The Nazirs....I don't know what it is. I watched them talking about some chickens the other day and I was like....what are you for? Alya and Gary could both be axed together.
I couldn't kill any Corrie Characters off! They are all good in their own little way!. Lots of go left in them for the future! Give them all a chance!!
I would be far more inclined to keep most most of the cast, barring probsbly Andrea & the Nazirs, but clear out the producer & most of the writers to be honest!! The established characters are, in the main, fine as they were before Mr Blackburn came, & characters like Maria, Ty, Jason, Sophie, even I think Michelle & Sean could soon be brought back to life with some decent storylines that accessed their past Street history instead of randomly changing their character to suit the plotline!! Continuity is the key along with scripts that actually fit the personality of the characters!! It could so easily be fone eith the right team of people!!
Of course they wont kill anyone in the bus crash - it's being done to win the awards not to clear out deadwood
Corrie loves its Deadwood and will never get rid of it whilst SB is in charge.
He got rid of Paul Kershaw, Brian Packham and Dennis Tanner who were mostly disliked on here. So let's not act like nobody has been axed. It would be pretty ridiculous if a producer axed about half the cast like people here expect them to do.
And do you think axing a big bunch of characters will improve the show? The stories would still need improving.

That is excellent, Keibro, you obviously have some background in writing. The only thing I would change: I would have Sophie and Maddie die in a fall from the roof !!

But people in Corrie can fall off high buildings and survive, so I don't know how that would be done.

I agree.
Wasn't keen at first, but think she's great now.
Mary is brilliant.

Yes a missed chance - this would be the perfect chance to kill off the deadwood.

Steve & Michelle would get married, and have a baby together
