That was one year ago!!

Completely plausible though. He leaves his kids with 2 nutty women who haven't been seen for weeks. I'm a big corrie fan but the plots are ridiculous now

Dev's a terrible character acted by a terrible actor. I hope he stays away permanently. Hopefully Dev will be crushed to death by an elephant in India. Off screen of course. His attempts at emotion and crying are dreadful. Other than sit in the shop which is mostly Sophie's place, or talk to Mary and Julie about the twins, what does he actually do for storylines?

He's been gone a year, just get rid of him
Awful character, awful actor.
Waste of a house, and waste of what was once a good set (corner shop)

Put Sally in the shop, or a new family and I never understood why they were put in that house, put Maria back there.

Sally & Tim running the shop would be great. Sally is a real busy body who thinks she's better than others, it would be a good move for Corrie. They need a strong woman in that shop, no one fits the bill better than Sally.

Dev hasn't been gone a year what are you guys on about, isn't a father allowed some time with his daughter before she goes to uni.

He will have a part in Julie leaving,.

Sally running the shop would be good, she'd love getting all the gossip. But she might see a role of 'shopkeeper' as beneath her because she's such a snob!

I quite like Dev but the writers don't seem to have given him much to work with recently.

I hope Dev is not leaving as this would mean his twins, in the show, leaving with him. They are both pleasant characters, who can act.

I don't know how tim would cope with running .. or even just serving in ... a shop. He wouldn't be able to read labels, write orders, accept deliveries or do the accounts. And he definitely wouldn't be able to read the regulations he'd have to follow.

Yes he will.
I like Dev. Light relief at times.


He was in it in Feb. Hardly a year ago.
