Kev won't be shown drinking in the Rovers
Quote:-
Eagle-eyed viewers noticed that whenever mechanic Kevin lifted a pint to have a swig on Monday's 'Corrie', the camera would cut to another scene. A source at the soap confirmed that it is intentional, following Michael leVell's stint in rehab earlier this year, where he spent three and a half weeks to deal with alcohol-related issues. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2014...6pLid%3D297038 I'm sure we're all big enough to understand it's Kev drinking and not Michael. |

Actually, I'm sure that's for Michael's benefit, not the viewers.
As someone who has an alcoholic relative I know that even having a "pretend" drink can be uncomfortable. My relative can't drink anything out of a wine glass at a party because it's just too close to drinking alcohol as far as she's concerned. If Michael doesn't want to act out drinking alcohol that's very understandable. It's not something you joke about so it shouldn't be something he should have to pretend to do either. |

Slightly changing the subject but what's with the beard? It makes him look ten years older. It doesn't suit him.

I'm thrilled with this as Michael Le Vell shouldn't be influenced by alcohol.

Why not write in a story where Kevin goes on a health kick and gives up the booze! I know its soap law that everyone goes to the pub 3 times a day but there are people that never visit the local, Kev could be one of them

Also regarding alcohal, I think he should opt for whatever suits him and whatever he is comfortable with (I am sure it wouldn't take much effort to sort this for him). |

I didn't notice this on Monday, but I'm glad that ITV are doing whatever they can to support Michael.
