I think it dates back to the Carry On days, where Sid James was considered sexy to the young women in the films. They didn't think, hang on a minute, this man is in his mid fifties, I had better steer clear of the pervert 
Anyway what I want to know is curly is so smart and knows everything, how does he not know that his dad is having it away with Tina and how will he react to this when he does find out and why doesn't he mention Leanne anymore.

OMG how did I miss this splendiferous post of yours Scone? I must have been distracted by hate for somebody like Carla, Fiz or Anna at the time,lol.
There are some half decent blokes Scone, Carl King was quite nice looking but the blokes on Corrie aren't usually up to much, though Kal is not too hard on the eye
It really does beggar belief that the old prune faced, grubby, frizzled headed pervmerchant Sid James could have been considered as attractive by any fantastic stretch of the imagination. What were people on in those days? But then think of SId rivals in the carry ons, Kenneth Williams

Terry from Terry and June, the wee skinny bloke with the big glasses, wow, no wonder Sid looked pretty,lol.
I think Simon will be disgusted at his dad over Tina, he probly puts her on a pedestal and admires her as someone who's older but not too old that he as a kid couldn't connect with. He'll be shocked and hurt to think of his dad treating Tina so shabbily and as he is such a smart and honest kid he won't fail to notice. With any luck he'll put some ant killer in his dad's cuppa. It would only take a pinch to do the wee squirt some severe damage. With any luck
