CS: Michelle's other son

I don't think Michelle's biological son has been mentioned in years. Did Michelle and the family of her other son agree to no contact or have the producers of the show just hoped the viewers have forgotten the SL completely and pretended it never happened?

    It seems to me it has been brushed under that soapland carpet. It's odd but what can we do.

    I think Michelle has forgotten she has another son.

    Awful, ridiculous storyline. Don't think its been mentioned since Ryan grew a new head. I wouldn't be surprised Alex is recast at some point in the future, they can hardly never mention him again.

    It was such a bad/ridiculous storyline that it's been ignored and forgotten as if it never happened. I think that is the best thing for it

    Stupid storyline which was just a device for Kym Marsh to try to prove she can act.

    She can't and now its been forgotten.

    It was an embarrassment of a stoyline, even for Corrie.

    They were supposed to kill him off but it didn't happen.

    I think it will turn out that the whole thing was a big mistake and Ryan really is her son.

    How could he not be? He's inherited her annoying gene.

    It's as daft as Gail's other son in Canada and her invisible dad. Plot devices.

    Gail's brother lives in Canada,but I take your point about the stupid storyline...Audrey's other family that nobody-not even Gail-knew anything about for years

    She can act. She wouldn't have lasted in Corrie so long if she couldn't.

    The whole story was so stupid it does appear to have been forgotten. All the hassle Ryan and Michelle have had recently and not once did he shout "your not my real Mum".

    I would bet that we will never see Alex again and the story will never be mentioned again either.

    Exactly this^^

    But I suppose she can act, if you consider acting to be standing all stroppy mouthed with your arms folded. She's pretty much in the same school of acting as Dev, Kirk and the wooden 'bit part' actors who usually turn up in the role of policeman or medics when the SL requires.

    That storyline to Coronation Street is like Chris Benoit to the WWE...

    I think Kym is a good actress.

    But that storyline was utterly ridiculous so I'm not surprised Corrie want to pretend it never happened.

    William Roache is in his 80s. I think we can cut him some slack if he isn't as dynamic a performer as he was at 30.

    And his excuse for when he was 30? :D

    He was really good until a few years ago. Age catches up with people.

    I'm more concerned about the alarming comments Roache is making about paedophile victims than his acting tbh. They have reduced Ken to a bit part character so the wooden acting doesn't bother me.

    The Platts are a weird family.

    Ben Price as Nick was always a strange choice since the actor is 10 years older than the character and looks it, not to mention looking nowt like Adam Rickett. :D

    And we met Gail's dad for the first time a few years ago, he moved into her house then vanished one day never to be seen again.
