Why is Gail not popular around here?
I can understand the dislike for many soap characters on DS, but I'm confused as to why Gail isn't popular. Her rankings on the favourite Corrie character are poor and she wasn't in David the Wavid's Top 50 Characters Poll.
I think Gail is amazing, she's one of my favourites! She has been at the centre of some of the programme's most memorable and controversial storylines. Isn't also a fact that she has the most appearances on Corrie, aside from Ken? Maybe I got that wrong. Furthermore, she can be a great bitch and is very good with her remarks- who can honestly forget the Norman Bates and Village People quotes? In the Corrie/EE Children in Need feature she stole the show! I'm rambling, I know but...three cheers for Gail! ![]()

The simpering sap that she is whever the first unsuitable male shows her a hint of attention.
Shes always got to have a man, or try and keep them. And the eyelashes and whispering!!! |

Because she whispers and does the wide eyed look- only when she is in love.
Otherwise she's great. |

She's a good actress but I can't stand her interfering ways and her whispering and eye lash fluttering

"Here come the rest of the Vilage People" Loooooove Gail. Script writers need to give her more comedy and less doomed romance.

I like Gail, one of my favourite characters. Although I quite find it funny all the misfortunes that happen to her, even though she tries her best. Like getting sent to jail for being accused of Joe's murder, and getting sacked from the medical centre.

Gail always come across as the Street outsider!... She only ever has scenes with a few characters!

I find Gail quite entertaining when she's in interfering bitch mode. But when she's simpering after a man, with the whispering and eyelash-fluttering, I feel like slapping her.

I love Gail! One of the best Corrie characters ever created imo. Corrie without Gail would be unthinkable. Such a complex character and I loved her dominating the show last year-I'm glad she's been given a well deserved break though. I think it's a testament to the actress she's been able to develop well over the years and still remain relevant.

Gail will always be one of my favourites..... i think she's brill.
I love Gail and David's scenes together, especially the ones after Tracy was attacked. They've become one of my favourite double acts. |

Can't fault the actress but the storylines just go round in circles
"Oh maaaaaaam" "oh Daviiiiiiid" "oh Saraaaaah" Gets a new man, drama drama, man dies. Although having said that, I LOVED her scene with Tracy, it was great. and the creamcake scene with Deidre. |

"Who are you, oh Nick did I give birth to you, are you my son" "David, who are you? Do I know you, are you married to my son" lololol To answer the ops question "Why is Gail not popular around here" probably because we don't like her lololol
