No Feelings Tracy Barlow
Tracy Barlow is the most vile character ever. I would hate to think it, but if something were to happen to her Mother or daughter would she be like, 'so...what's for tea then?'
Has she really got a swinging BRICK as a heart? |

She is a terribly written and badly acted character. I don't get it when people think she is funny, she is a really repulsive individual with no redeeming qualities. And the fact she sold Albert Tatlock's medal (which she has no rights over) without any remorse is just disgraceful, but of course she gets off with it. Sick of her stupid schemes, it's amazing how she gets off with everything.

She's the Corrie equivalent of Charity Macey, in Emmerdale both are teflon coated. Perhaps it is something to do with having the same producer?

Her daughter Amy was very uncompassionate when Tina died.

As if any producer would have the balls to axe her. Now she's billed as a original female character and is the route of all evil in the street

At least she doesn't pretend to be nice and careful unlike Michelle for example who is just a bully.
She has shown to defend Amy, look out for Simon and feel sorry for Peter an her mum. She is crap at it but she is trying. |

I like Emma Atkins and she does a good job of acting evil. She also has a soft side that occasionally emerges. However, Kate Ford is a pretty hammy actress but I hear she is a lovely person. Having said that Kate Ford really doesn't suit the part of evil Tracy IMO. The character has no redeeming features and really is a very nasty peace of work.

The ridiculous thing is that no man would be interested in someone with such a vile personality, she would have no friends and even her family would not support her.

She needs something bad to happen to her to make her think about what she is, unfortunately nothing will and she'll carry on and make everybody else's life a misery. That Rob must have sh*t in his eyes with being with her, then again, after coming out of prison, anything like Tracy will do!

She could be a great character if the writers put in a bit of effort! Same goes for the show as a whole really. But why would they do that when they have a loyal audience who tune in regardless?

Sulla how rude lol
I think it is a good comparison they are both heartless deep down. Charity just has the gold digger aspect and her real love for Cain Dingle added to her. |

Has she really got a swinging BRICK as a heart? A cold-blooded, pre-meditated murderer who has never shown an ounce of remorse.

She isn't a comedy character, I cannot erase from my memory her drugging Roy Cropper nearly leading him to suicide, killing Charlie Stubbs, trying to lock Gail up for a murder she didn't commit, mocked Claire Peacock who was just widowed and tried to turn everyone on Becky claiming she murdered her babies after pushing her down a flight of stairs. |

I'm sure Kate Ford is a nice person, but like the other cast she gets awful material. If they insist on keeping Tracy keep her to the background, her snide remarks is getting boring.

So sick of this lank haired gummy shrew. Why is her contract renewed over and over and we get rid of could have been great old characters like Dennis and the much more likeable and more mileage in him Rob. Tracygums is just a one dimensonal bore, a panto villan that you just want to hiss at.

The history to Tracey could be used more, unless we've watched long enough we would never know Tracey had a kidney transplant. Nor that the kidney came from Deidre's ex Samir! As a transplant patient, Tracey would take medication regularly and be subject to many check ups. Why is there never even the slightest reference to this?
I don't think it should be the only thing that defines her but it should come up sometimes. Maybe her frustration at being a long term patient might be one of the reasons why she has such a selfish attitude now. |

One of the most ridiculous aspects of the storyline is her relationship with her daughter. She's supposed to be a murderer and a cold hearted sociopath. In that case, she would have a very troubled relationship with Amy and would be probably be abusive and neglectful towards her. A sociopath who lacks empathy for others wouldn't be able to switch on and off their feelings.

When she left Corrie she 'left for good' which is why they had her murder Charlie and banged up for 15 years.
As she couldn't any other acting work (no surprise) she wanted to go back after 3 years. Instead of telling her Toxic couldn't return for about 8 years - she'd do half her sentence then be released on license - they cooked up the ridiculous excuse to get her out of jail after 3 years. So the producer who did that must love her. If it's the same producer, Toxic will be there forever. She's a terrible actor. I remember when I watched years ago it was said you could never tell the difference when she was smiling or sneering because she had the same gurning beam on her face when conveying both emotions. Wonder if she does the same now. Kate Ford Best Actress, Anthony Cotton Best Actor ... Surely the BSA biggest jokes! |
