Melanie Hill was trumpeted in as a new friend for Roy. I thought good she will be support to him after his devastation at Haley's death. But she is just a manky needy annoyance with ishoos. Why cant there be one decent warm hearted strong woman in Coronation Street? Always have to be ether harridans, sex obsessed or nutjobs.

She is really annoying, can't stand her. I thought she was going to be a strong and much needed support for Roy, not some whimpering old bore with a hoarding problem.

Nevermind eh.

Absolutely awful character and one of the most depressing characters we've had in a long time.

I'm finding her really annoying, and the Roy/Carla friendship is being pushed on us too much also.

If ever an actor fitted like a glove on the cobbles it has to be Melanie Hill. I am not sure I like what the writers are doing with the character. Why does she have to be an odd ball. What was wrong with making her normal, a widow, getting over the loss of her husband, finding Roy as a friend and the friendship blossoming and enjoying the allotment and other interests. CS when they get it right can do normal better than any other soap. There is no need to try and complicate things, keep it simple and real.

I agree, she has appeared consistantly on Tv and deserves a better script than this. Agree with all the posts actually, a waste of a good actress.

I find it strange everyone Fiz and Roy meet seem to have some sort of psychological problem. That would never happen in real life.

I think the Roy/Carla friendship is quite realistic and would put things into context if they ever have a 'Roy has autism' storyline because it reminds me of the friendships I have with people (often very motherly/fatherly like Carla & Roy or Fiz & Roy).

Sorry this character is not working and is not right for Roy. Melanie Hill is not for Corrie.

Annoying, if only the junk she hoards would fall on top of her.

I'm opting for annoying. Couldn't believe Roy had to cancel his driving test because she left her bag on the bus. It was hardly a life or death emergency.

I couldnt understand why she even rang him, as you say not a real emergency and he is only an acquaitance. Why didnt she ring Sharif, she knows him as well as she knows Roy. Then she couldnt get out of the cab quick enough. I hate to say it but I am agreeing with Fuzzface.

I t's a shame really as they had the oportunity to bring in a new character who could have added a layer of hope/happiness. However they've just added another layer of needy/misery and hopelessness. It appears to be the mission of TPTB to make the show as stressful as can be. Personally I think they have a long list of woes and are using them up one by one on all the characters.

So far it's the thumbs down, I find her irritating.

It's a shame because the actress is really quite good and does seem to have been in everything.

Like most of new Corrie characters she is totally one dimensional and seems to have no redeeming characteristics whatsoever. Why would Roy even be friends with her? She seems totally hard work, and is not even entertaining company or anything that may make you put up with her neediness.
