CS Dan, Leanne & Liz
Tomorrow night Dan is set to take revenge on Leanne & Liz by
Spoiler
How do forum members feel about this? I love Leanne as a character but hell, if we are talking about 'having a past' does she reallly have any right to bring up Dan's murky past, given her own: druggy, prostitute, arsonist, fraudster, thief, adultress... Yes she has changed but should she not have then taken Dan's word for it that he was a changed man as well & kept schtum about his past & just stayed out of his way!! As for Foghorn, Fishwife bully McMutton, did she really have to put her own & Leanne's safety at risk by publicly humiliating a bloke she'd just been told was a violent bully in front of his boss & the teenage daughter he obviously worships!! If I were Dan I would now be hellbent on revenge against these two & if I was Leanne or Liz I would be asking myself if I hadn't actually asked for it!!! |

I thought Simon wouldve already known about Leanne because Blanche or Tracy may have brought it up.

"Granny Blanche, why've you got a funny face on?" "Oh and now I'm being told off by the former prostitute" Link to the scenes here. |

Blanche definitely mentioned it during the scene where she put too much make up on and got drunk trying to impress Simon's other grandad George. Simon was definitely in that scene.

When Blanche revealed Leanne was a prostitute (as well as the rest of her family's flaws) Simon wasn't in the scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zT-4PZFuzc But I am still surprised after all those years Simon hasn't found out from someone. |

I expect this storyline is just to give Simon more ammunition to slap Leanne about. The brat should be grateful. She is the one who has remained there for him, it wasn't her fault that the flat caught fire, it was his pissheaded father.
Ok he may blame her for Kal's death, but he was only with them for two minutes. What the hell does he blame her for? Why this turnaround. This was a kid that used to throw himself into everyones chest and demand hugs, now he just needs a good telling off. If I was Leanne, I wouldn't be taking the crap she is, I'd be taking his laptop off him, grounding him and making sure he has a real reason to despise me, the little git. I'm not a fan of this abuse storyline |

It's a fair point. Leanne must have met a considerable number of dodgy characters when she went off the rails. The sensible thing would be to move on and forget the past. It would have been wiser to take Dan's word that he was a changed man - maybe he could have, he might have found religion or gone for anger management counselling or whatever - and now it's going to blow up in her face.
The thing I didn't agree with was Liz telling his daughter. That was just wrong, and probably gives him the idea that he has the right to do the same to Leanne by telling Simon. Liz went too far. She shoukd have just dumped him quietly and asked him to leave, she's such a drama queen |

She did initially take his word for it and promised not to say anything but his own paranoia got the better of him and he was aggressive and threatening towards her which showed he was far from a changed man, it was through fear that he might hurt Liz that she blabbed, not to take the moral high ground or be vindictive.

Her first reaction when she had a one on one with Dan was to threaten to tell Liz about his past, which then sparked off his paranoia and hostility towards her. Liz handled it disastrously of course. Naming and shaming him in front of a pub full of people amounted to slander and defamation of character - she hadn't a shred of evidence to back up her allegations against him. |

![]() When are abused, terrorised women ever NOT the victims?? ![]() ![]() Dear god, I feel like I just time-travelled back to the 70s. ![]() What about the verbal abuse dished out by Liz in front of her boyfriend's daughter and boss which has probably ruined his life. I don't condone the violence but Dan had done nothing to her. She was lashing out about something that happened to someone else, ten years ago. If Leanne wants to have a go at him, fair enough. I just think Liz was out of order. I also think Leanne should have left it in in the past. She has changed, so he may have done too, for all she knew. |

If I was in a similar situation I would like to think a friend would tell me and not leave it until it was to late...Dan seems like a nasty piece of work and with drink down him I think he could turn very very nasty......Better to be wise than sorry..

You don't think being pushed he lost his job and daughter over something which happened years ago.. But thats the way Corrie is nowadays. The lowest common denominator. Features stories for 8 year olds.. |

Shame by her actions she's made it far worse for Leanne too, who was after all only trying to warn her!! |

These are two separate scenes.

................. I am not condoning his past violence or even encouraging him to be violent now but, looking from his angle, he's told Leanne he's changed, settled down, has a daughter!! Given the way people have accepted her as changed I think she should have accepted he had & left the past alone!! ..........................

I'm no fan of Leanne, but to be fair she was happy to leave the past alone. It was Dan who kept returning to it, and threatening her.
