Is anyone else finding Corrie unrealistic?
I like both David and Tracy as characters but I am not enjoying the storyline so far at all. I think Corrie are making a mistake in David lying too much and it just seems to contrived and unrealistic. In fact, I think Coronation Street is sliding a little. I don't really like the direction Steve Frost is taking the programme in. The bisexual love triangle story is another one I don't want to see.

No Corrie is fantastic right now. I love what Steve Frost has done and can't wait for the new family and Demon is the future of this show.

It is getting a bit silly. The whole Tracy saga is going well over the top, especially now that David has got himself involved - they both know that the other is lying.

Most of the story i have found to be unrealistic, yet somehow have made excuses for.
Yet, to allow tracy back on the street, with such an impressionable witness (david), how could those daft police officers let her back on the street?? I don't know all the legal ins and outs, but i think its obvious that she'll 'interfere' with the witness(es). |

Tracy was released on bail before David came forward with his eye witness statement.
I`m sure David isn`t the only person who has told lies to get attention. I love this twist to the story line, let`s face it Tracy out on bail would get very boring. As it is with David involved who knows where he will take it. Also can`t wait till Claire starts having doubts when Tracy`s true nature starts coming out. No way can Tracy be nice to Claire for very long. |

i totally agree .. its like some stale pantomime .i sometimes tune in just to see how bad it is ... and it usually doesnt dissapoint .... i cant see it getting better as the upcoming storylines sound awful and new cast additions boring & wooden .

After all the Sun sells more copy than say the Independent, but could anyone seriously say the quality of that publication is better?? |

Who cares if it is unrealistic, it is entertainment.

Yeah right. |

David is amazing, and no matter how out-there or far-fetched the storyline, Jack.P.Shepherd can pull it off. I'm loving this storyline!
