What's your opinion on her?

Its looking like she has just been a plot device to aid the exit of Graham

Not liking it at all - it may get better now - But thus far it has seemed like she has just been shoe-horned into the plot!

And it seems like Tina is overly obsessed to help - I mean please, she hadn't even mentioned her until a month ago!

No.

Her character is a nothing more than a transparent plot device. It doesn't help that the actress is shocking.

The whole storyline is one of the worst things to happen to Corrie in a long while.

It is a stupid S/L.
2 minutes ago she offered Demon Dave £2000 to marry her, now she is going to marry Graeme ! Like they wouldn't put two and two together.
Kylie would be blackmailing them quicker than she could say egg foo yung.

Corrie seems to be trying to aim itself towards the youth I think but its not really working.

What was that thing the TV used in the Election Debates last year? The "Worm" or something? Where an audience watches the TV programme with a thing in their hand and they press buttons to say whether they like or dislike what they are watching, moment by moment. This is represented by a line that moves up and down to show approval or disapproval in real-time.

They should have that on Coronation Street, to see how low the worm dips whenever a Xin scene comes up.

Not working for me - I have no interest in it at all, and whilst I was fairly ambivalent about Tina before, I'm now feeling pretty negative twards both her and Graeme and couldn't care less what happens to them

After going through a great patch, there are now many storylines in Corrie currently in which I have absolutely no interest at all. I just sit & wait for Norris & Mary to have a scene as they provide practically the only entertainment at the moment

Well, I'm disappointed - I was hoping she would be a different kind of character what with having different customs and traditions and I thought we might find out about them and that would have been kinda cool!! But she is just boring and the fact she is risking Graeme's wellbeing makes me not like her. And I don't like how Tina has changed as a result of Xin either.

She's not been in it long enough for the viewers to give a stuff about her.

I don't get why she turned down the fake visa because it was illegal ? ? Yet she's breaking the law by marrying Graeme.

She's the most transparent plot device in a long time. It might help if she had ever been mentioned by Tina before.........

She is very beautiful, though. Maybe she was brought in to add a touch of glamour.

Whoever it is that plays her is the worst actress I've seen in a long time (well maybe alongside that one out of Hollyoaks, Phina something that went out with Tony then disappeared) and that just makes the rubbish storyline even worse IMO.

Had to laugh when Tina was calling her 'my best friend' having never mentioned her before...

She could be better, given the right material.
I don't like the whole Tina/Xin/Graeme thing at all though.

its utter rubbish this storyline, i dont like the character at all.

i was never a big fan of mean tina anyway, and graeme just dont go there.

But he seems much liked on here, so maybe he deserves a better exit storyline than this ?

crabtree's is oscar worthy compared to the way this one is heading, down the pan.
