I was going to give more examples but I realised she lies about pretty much everything. I doubt DS has enough bandwidth to list her lies.
** Shame. It should have been Carla she murdered. The day that woman leaves Coronation Street for good can't come too soon.”
Why do people constantly feel the need to bring up something that happened over 5 years ago and use it against her? At the same as the girl fell down the stairs Leanne was a prostitute, and yet when that's brought up we're told she's changed and become a better person since then. So why can Carla not be given the same treatment? I'm sure DS has a bandwidth big enough for you to name more than that one lie (Which actually was Paul's idea and Carla went along with it, but hey).

Exactly. All three are losing viewer sympathy and becoming predictable.

They've beyond wasted Rob as a character and it's such a shame. He had the potential to be a great, multi-layered character with an interesting back story, but instead he's turned into a typical soap 'bad boy' who appears to have no depth at all.

A good shave?
