Am i the only person who thought that tonights double bill of corrie was pathetic? I mean, we had the stupid 'nit' episode, Leanne & Jamie doing 'Carry On Bonking', Claire (i'm behind a wheel, be afraid, be very afraid) Peacock and her stupid crusade to clean up Weatherfield. Is this really the best that Corrie has to offer lately? I really do think that they are scrapping the barrel with their story lines lately. That Shelly & Charlie storyline has gone on for far, far too long. I mean, in stark contrast - Eastenders @ 8pm was gripping. Sam was fantastic playing barking mad with that pickaxe. Now this has been one great storyline from start to it's obviously soon conclusion. Even the characters are more believable to say nothing of the standard of acting. I'm afraid that corrie cannot cut it anymore and needs to ask itself whether it's time to bow out gracefully before we have Norris chasing Emily down the street to the tune of Benny Hill!

You have the date wrong. You put Monday 30th August. On your very first post as well.
I take it that you are not a Corrie fan.

So that's why you have altered it from the 30th.
See post 2.

Sulla, is that why you've got over 8000 posts, checking everyone's messages for mistakes? If so, maybe you should take up some other useful activity

baconroll, do you not admit you made a mistake instead editing it and then acting like the corrector is in the wrong?

That was by far the worst episode of Corrie I have ever seen! It was down there with EE when it was going through its very bad patch last year.
Nothing dramatic, nothing funny, just a bunch of pointless non-storylines thrown together. I can't even see how anything we saw last night is actually going to lead anywhere!

And don't get me wrong, I'm a big Corrie fan, which makes me even more sad to see episodes like this, next to a top class EE episode (the soap that I hardly ever watch).

However, whoever said it is time for Corrie to bow out is going a little bit too far...all soaps have bad patches and Corrie is currently going through one. I'm sure they'll manage to come out of it like EE has done. However that doesn't take away from the fact that I was totally bewildered by last night's episode!
