just watching the second of tonights corrie eps and this struck me ..

Carla, classy, posh, the kind of woman you take home to mum (when she isn't really drunk)

Leanne, common chav, ex prostitute, not the kind you take home to mum

both can be a bit hard faced but both have a heart of gold

but the thing they have in common is they like the same men!

anyone else have any thoughts on this ?

Well Carla's an alcoholic mess who has struggled with a gambling addiction and is incredibly deceptive and selfish. Not the sort I'd want to take home to my mother. Apart from that no .

And also has meltdowns and would steal from you to feed her addictions (such as gambling).

There is nothing classy and posh about her. At least Leanne has straightened herself out.

Leanne... heart of gold?

She is a scrounging lowlife thieving arsonist that uses a kid that isn't hers to acquire homes and businesses from her latest victim of a bloke, then gets rid of the horrid kid when he turns out to be a little shit largely due to her 'parenting'.

It was nice to see them being friends again. I remember they really got on before Carla got off with Peter. Mind, it is strange how Carla always has Leanne's men.

More likely than Carla I'd say. She's a good person underneath.

I still find it odd that Carla is marrying the second ex-husband of Leanne's.

I enjoy their scenes these days and like that they're back on civil terms with one another and not enemies anyone.

I do like them as friends but I do miss their catfights

Exactly, Leanne might be a bit rough around the edges but at least she's not messed up in the head like Carla.

Paul Connor - Carla's husband, and he tried to pay Leanne to have sex with him when she was a prostitute.

Liam Connor - Leanne dated him, Carla always loved him.

Peter Barlow - Leanne married him, Carla stole him.

Nick Tilsley - Leanne's first love, she remarried him. It fell apart, Carla fell for him.

The one exception to the rule was Trevor, who ran out with Leanne's step mum Janice!

So she's richer than the rest, but money can't buy class

I'd love Carla's handbag budget!

Absolutely!!
Carla's upbringing was far worse than Leanne's, there's nowt posh about her!!
She married money & everything she has has come from dead husbands/nearly husbands!!
As fast as she destroys everything she finds some other poor unfortunate mug to sponge off!!

Leanne really isn't much better given her past, but, given the stark choice I'd take Leanne home to meet my Mum before I'd take Carla!!

For the record I don't think Carla has a heart of gold either, she's about as selfish as it's possible to get!!

Whatever else you say about Leanne she has redeemed her past a lot with the way she has taken on Simon & stuck with the task of trying to always do the best by him!!

I certainly don't see Carla as posh. She even said so herself.

Posh is the last thing I'd call Carla.
