Corrie thread - New thread for the New Year, time for another disaster?

New thread in time for the new year - hopefully this year will see the back of some awful characters.

I would personally like to see the following rounded up and shoved in a deep hole in the Red Rec:

Izzy
Anna
Owen
Gary
Michelle
Tracey-Luv
Gavin
Faye
Yasmeen and her entire extended family
The Community Centre
Kylie
Todd
Steph

That'll do for starters.

I am sure I read that. It just brings Steve and his depression story forward and that he admits how he is feeling.

Sean was unintentionally funny when Julie woke him. We had to rewind it. Twice!

Would everyone really have been knocked out?

Yes,I heard no-one dies but Sinead is very poorly - as a lesson to never take your seatbelt off I guess.....

bryonyelf · 19/01/2015 21:11

has anyone else just read that Anne Kirkbride has died this evening?

Southeastdweller · 19/01/2015 21:13

No - where did you read that? Just googled and found nothing.

lovelydoggies · 19/01/2015 21:13

I've literally had to change channels. The acting after the crash was dire and quite cringing.

Nothing I can see?

squoosh · 19/01/2015 21:14

It's true!

Oh my god, that's so sad. I had no idea she was that ill.

RIP Anne.

squoosh · 19/01/2015 21:14

It's on twitter.

squoosh · 19/01/2015 21:15

I'm shocked.

Bloody hell, just seen it on FB but not on the news. Is it really true?

She was only 60.

I can't believe it, she was one of the best things on Corrie.

News realised by ITV press office. Very sad. Thanks

KenDoddsDadsDog · 19/01/2015 21:25

That's terrible news. Poor woman Sad

rosiepinkcheeks · 19/01/2015 21:25

How dreadfully sad. RIP.

hildasmuriel · 19/01/2015 21:25

I truly and actually want to cry. So sad.

squoosh · 19/01/2015 21:27

Coronation Street will really miss her and her terrible pottery and chain belt.

ajandjjmum · 19/01/2015 21:28

So sad - and rather ironic on the night of the minibus crash. Certainly bring real life into focus, rather than the 'story'.

RIP

Me too, hilda. She's been on it my whole life, and I feel I grew up watching her. Still think of her with her huge glasses, shoulder-length hair, sobbing over Mike Baldwin.

Oh my god that is so shocking. Had she been ill??

SwedishEdith · 19/01/2015 21:30

Just been told - she'll be a huge loss. God, I remember her when she was married to Ray Langton. She wanted to call Tracey Lynette but Ray went to the Registry office on his own so he could get his own way and call her Tracey. RIP Anne Kirkbride. Sad
