Oh no - the Corrie thread is full!

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

Hope no one minds - was just about to post on the thread but it was full.

What DVD? I missed that. Has no one watched it yet then or was it a red herring?

I think Tina is beautiful too

I'm really going to miss Tina. Not only beautiful but forceful and outspoken with a mind of her own. (Leaving aside the Peter blip). Not like whiny Sophie or nothing Katie or airhead Maria.

Yeah she was good and gobby till the Peter nonsense.

I hate it when they totally change characters just to suit their plot. Tina was good until they changed her and the actress got addicted to sunbeds.

Loved Tina at first. She had attitude and was funny.

To be fair to her, according to her Instagram and Twitter she goes on a hell of a lot of holidays abroad! She's not long got back from 2 weeks in Dubai, so a lot of the tan is probably real, lucky cow lol.
I'm gonna miss her too, I hope they give Gemma and Eva some good storylines, I'm bored of Whiney Sawfee, strange Maddie and Fiz with her odd personality.

Two thirds of that tan is the product of sunbeds. It's WAY too orange to look natural. She is ruining her skin.

The press are always photographing her coming out of a tanning salon, though. Anyway, either by sun or sunbed, by the time she is 40 she's going to be a shrivelled wreck, which is a shame, because she could be beautiful.

Eva has potential as a good character. I hope they give her some good storylines.

Oh I don't doubt a lot of it is fake, she is engaged to Mark Wright after all lol.
I do wonder if a lot of it is for her character though, I remember an interview with her last year and she was saying they like Tina to look 'chav' (she didn't use that exact word but she so wanted to lol)
Wonder if she will tone it down now she's done with corrie.

I can see eastenders snapping her up in the next couple of years though, they like a gobby character.

She's having coaching so that she can take parts that require a different accent to her present one.

It can be hard to tell sometimes if soap actors are good actors as they have to act in such a specific 'soap opera' way. Who knows, she may turn out to be a Suranne Jones or Sarah Lancashire.

But she will need to de-Tina her look first.

Who's Gemma Rose?

Ha, I didn't mean Gemma, I typed what I was hearing, I meant Steph!
I think she could be brilliant with a decent story line.

Totally agree about Steph - Corrie are best at bringing characters in slowly & getting us to like them first.

I do wish they'd show Katie struggling with Joseph though as it's all too much about lack of money when really life should be tough in so many ways for her in particular. Agghh! Shouldn't walk about the Windasses (or wherever Owens surname is) as the whole family irritate me & the scriptwriters really are at a low with their whole storylines!

Yes Katies relationship with Joseph is awful. She had a job but no one is around to have him and the only time she mentions him is to say Chesney has him. Yet when we then see Chesney hes sitting at the table looking worried.

Tinas death was too blundery, you would not just fall back like that.

I thought the same about the fall, Desperate. Why did she not grab out and save herself when she realised she was falling and was still at the top?

But the fall back was like there was nothing in the way but when they showed the balcony from the street there was a railing. It didn't seem very real.

Exactly - where was the railing?

What kind of a fucking prick is Owen?! 'What does that make you?' Fuck off.

Watch it Owen! she did it for you and the family not cos she fancied him ffs.

Peter is so unattractive.

Why is she still talking???? Die woman!!!

Aargh she alive!

I knew she didn't die straight away but I wasn't expecting her to sit up and start talking.

Oh no, someone else is going to do the deed?
