Tommy Duckworth
Apologies if this has already been discussed etc, I did a search and couldn't find anything.
Also apologies in advance if I mess up, it's my first new thread I was just thinking, what would the Tina storyline in CS be like if Chris Fountain hadn't been suspended. Would they have done the same story but had him in the frame? It could have been very interesting! |

Knowing Stuart Blackburn he would have split up Tina McIntyre and Tommy Duckworth by now, he hates happy couples I think.
Congratulations on your first thread!

Jason Grimshaw and Eva Price have barely had any screen time since getting together and baring in mind Tony Stewarts constant flattery and gifts... I see trouble brewing there. Beth Tinker and Kirk Sutherland are a great couple but hardly Corries leading man and lady (and yes I am a huge fan of the coupling and Beths solo scenes.) Chesney Brown and Sinead Tinker have barely had any screen time as well... give it time! Peter Barlow and Carla Barlow - Splitting up. Rob Donovan and Tracy Barlow - Eventual will be split apart now his time limit has started on his exit. Roy Cropper and Hayley Cropper - Widowed and killed off when she could have gone to Africa again! Nick Tilsley and Leanne Tilsley - Getting divorced. Owen Armstrong and Anan Windass - In danger od splitting up. Lloyd Mullaney and Andrea - She is married so she either dumps Lloyd or her marriage! Maria Connor and Marcus Dent - Split up. Marcus Dent and Todd Grimshaw - Splitting up. Do I need to carry on?

Despite their little screen time, I found their little roleplaying at the bar amusing. Maria and Marcus are no loss, their pairing was stupid in the first place. I wouldn't call Tommy or Tina a happy couple. Tommy always looked miserable, ended up getting him and Tina into debt, then split from her during the surrogacy. Him leaving her was hardly a shock, and not the first time either. |

Seriously, you rather if Hayley left Roy to go to Africa instead of dying? Wouldn't that be splitting them up?

No. Because a) I'm sure you understand that a street full of happy couples would not provide sufficient drama to keep people watching, and b) as regards screen time, it's called 'character rotation' and unlike some other soaps, Corrie does this very well.

Guys all I said was is that he has a habit of splitting up couples, I didn't say if it wasn't or was necessary. I'm thinking more about his time on Emmerdale. ![]() I also personally think Tommy and Tina were the most tedious couple ever. He was just her little lapdog, which is rarely interesting to watch.

Oh yes, you're right about that, I just don't think it's in any way unique to Blackburn - apart from 'filler' and background characters, all the major characters in all soaps tend to change partners more often than I change my knickers. (Erm, that's a lot in case there was any doubt).
