Coronation Street - The future of Simon Barlow...
Womaniser, gay, David Platt mark 2, alcoholic etc?
I am warming to him more, still acts like a baby despite his height. |

He could be in a Mungo Jerry tribute act as a young Ray Dorset.

He'll be a destructive runt, undoubtedly.

I reckon he'll be clever and go off to University thus following in Grandad Kens footsteps.
He'll get a really important job in Manchester Council and get the Street bulldozed. |

Given the usual rule that people in soaps can only marry someone from teh same street, no doubt he will end up with Amy Barlow.

I don't really see how he can keep on in Coronation Street.
The kid is clearly mixed race and it's becoming more obvious as he gets older. Considering his parents are/were both white, it's all a bit silly now. |

I said this a few years ago on this forum and had loads of idiots condemning me. I only stated that it was strange casting considering his skin colour. Nothing racist intended, just an honest observation. |

Seriously , though, such a coupling would put a hell of a strain on Social Services. One with both parents and a grandparent ex- or current jailbirds. Single mother, who's a dealer in stolen goods, and usually looked after by grandparents. The other with one parent currently in prison, and continually passed from one temporary 'parent' to another. It's a recipe for delinquent children. |

Amy and Simon are cousins by marriage, would be a bit weird for them to date wouldn't it?
I don't know what he'll be like when he's older but I do wonder when they're going to make him start acting older. He's 11/12 now and still acting about 8 despite looking 13. |

I think he'll be a nice guy, possibly gay. Amy will be the liar, cheat etc.

I don't think we have seen his maternal grandmother, have we? It might be time to introduce her and have her looking like Simon.

Genes are a funny thing though.
Lots of women have had black/mixed race kids despite being white.depends what's in the family genes. |

I'd forgotten all about Simon's real mum, so assumed that she was mixed race. Maybe the casting decision originally was because Peter is quite swarthy?

Maybe he'll be like Todd and a nasty piece of work after having a trip to London. After all Todd used to be a wet blanket simpering lump before he went to London treated like he was the golden child...... And look what happened there.
Simon is always treated like the golden boy too, plus never pulled up when he is blatantly rude to others, especially to adults. Instead we get excuses like "He is tired/upset etc". I've seen from personal experience with my niece what a kid can grow up like if such behaviour isn't nipped in the bud at a young age and condoned instead.

![]() ![]() But surely everyone's over the 'mixed race Simon' thing by now? He is what he is and he's looked the same for years and half the people watching Corrie today probably don't even remember who his mum was. Who cares anyway?
