This duo are who sprung to mind when I read the tread title. A terrible romantic pairing. I wish they had kept them as friends.
Roy was the type of character who would never enter into another romantic/sexual relationship after losing his first love. The production team chose to ignore that and have him move on from Hayley within a matter of months. Ken Barlow he is not.
Cathy showed some promise when she first arrived and Melanie Hill is a capable actress but they've gradually worn away the interesting elements of her character and turned her into yet another dumb and incompetent buffoon with a gob.
