How you can even think of wanting to get rid of Norris is beyond me! He is the only comedy in the soap now that Les has gone to prison. Along with Blanche, they are a right pair, and would be suited as a couple.

Mick is no use nor ornament, neither is Todd, although his Gay story line is coming up.

Mike is going to be good in the soap later on in the next couple of months, because of the Joe/Karen storyline thickening.

David, is growing up to be a good little actor, Gail is having time off for a bit now anyway, (or taking a back seat) because of the recent Richard storyline, and Martin... well i think things are going to hot up between him and Katie.....

I dont really think you could have picked a worse choice of people to want to axe. I personally think that everything's OK at the minute, and if they get rid of anybody else out of corrie (i mean they killed Richard off!) the soap wont be worth watching.

Anyway, they're just my views.... everyone has their own...

Cheers,

KJG (wehey 100th post!)

There are always characters that some people don't like. I like lots of people on your list Dreary. Would hate to see them go:
My list would be:

Les
Les
Les
Les
Les
Les
Les
Les

Let's hope he stays in prison. Not only is he a most appalling character, but an awful actor too.

Some of your wish list is coming true. I would like to see the back of Mick, Karen and Les. However, I would like the truth to come out about Les being innocent first. Perhaps he could retire on the compensation money!!

Wally? poor old Bernard Cribbins? What has he ever done to harm you?

Anyway...


[COLOR=red]SPOILER ALERT[/COLOR]






















Allegedly, Traceyluv tries to woo Wally when she discovers that he's rich and ends up "getting close to him" at his pool. Blanche turns up and starts fighting with Tracey over him - it's all too much for Wally who passes away without either of them noticing at first!

Reminiscent of good old Ted Sullivan dying of boredom at a bowls match (should have stayed with Doctor Who!) Actually, Alfie died without anybody noticing either - why do I get the impression they're recycling storylines so much???!!!

I find this whole thread pretty strange. Do you think that by axeing loads of characters Coronation Street would somehow be improved?!

SUrely suggesting storylines and new characters would make this thread a little more constructive?

Superb idea! Les with money! He'd run through it all in six months, and be back to normal, but what a six months it would be ... starting with free drinks for all in the Rovers - Norris taking the drink but still complaining that Les has to be guilty, everybody else just slinging them down their necks and enjoying themselves - that would be a drunken party to remember. Lataer on, sharp suits (70s retro), sports car with loud, annoying stereo... the list goes on!

They tried that already....lots of mini-storylines and part timer characters....viewers didnt like it

Still I think its good who we say we dont like...its good catharsis!
