I don't like Sinbad in Corrie
I mean I don't like him being in Corrie. Not that I ever watched Brookside but I can't think of him as anything other than Sinbad.

lol this seems to be a problem for a lot of people but its been so many years since brookside! Weve had him in The Royal for what 5/6 years now?!
And you didnt even watch brookside! If this is how it stays with "Jerry" i dont think his character will work! People need to judge him as Jerry.... |

Didn`t think I would like him, but he is a good actor, so his family has a lot to live up to.
Think he is the neighbour from hell, I can`t bear people who are in your face from the minute they arrive in the neighbourhood. Everyone is suggesting romance between him and Gail, I can only look at that stomach and think "how the hell?" |

I enjoyed Sinbad in Brookside, and the couple of times I saw him in The Royal, I still saw him as Sinbad, perhaps I should have watched more. I was prepared to see him as Sinbad again, as this Jerry character, and was suprised to admit to hubby after the 2nd show that yes, I think he'll fit in. I don't know about the whole family though. Time will tell.
I don't like the thought of him and Gail getting it on, Janice is much more his type, rough and ready, not afraid to bend the truth a little, or a lot Yes..he'll do for me cocker, so far

I'm sure that after being on Corrie as "Jerry Morton" for a while, with a few good storylines we will all get used to him in his new role.

Perhaps we should all predict who he or his wife will have an affair with in the next 18 months. I say this because 'that' seems to be the only storyline soaps writers can think off.

I thought his eldest Daughter was his Wife! She looks far too old to play that part.

I've never watched brookside, so i am open to the idea of the new character jerry. He seems like a character with plenty of mileage in him, storywise.

In your first post you said I instantly disliked Jerry! I never mentioned Jerry - I mentioned Sinbad. I'm quite prepared to give Jerry a chance but would have preferred another actor not one who is well known from another soap. |

I love him as Jerry already and can see him having a fair few female admirers has he comes across as a bit of a charmer!

I must admit to also being confused as to what point the OP is making
So are you saying that you don't think any actors should go from one soap to another?? or just those that are 'well known'? And when does a soap actor reach the 'well known' point?
