The Platts weren't central to the 40th and even though Nick was one of the people trapped in what is now the Bistro in the tram crash, they got him out fairly quickly and then it concentrated on other characters, mainly Sally and Molly as Molly died, Peter in Hospital with his family around and John Stape killing Charlotte.
I think Jonny Briggs (mike baldwin) made a slight gaff in the 40th, getting a name wrong but it was very minor. There's been nothing as big as Scott Maslen in EE's 25th or "How's Adam" this year.
I believe Helen Worth asked to be left out of the 40th as she hadn't done any live work since before she joined Corrie in the 1970s. I had thought she was in the 50th, in a very minor way but apparently not.
Either they've calmed her nerves or it will concentrate on the younger members of the family.
