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

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

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.

SPOILER

I've just read next weeks tv paper. Faye's going to do a pregnancy test with Craig which as we know is positive.

Then they think back to the party and apparently shes about 7 months gone.

It seems to remind me very much ofnthe Sarah Jane /Bethany story?

What has Eileen done to herself? I can't pinpoint it but she looks different

I'm in the minority as I don't dislike Maddy. I thought it was very good of her to go and own up to Norris.

Really behind but just wanted to say:

Sean's acting during the crash was hilarious
We were disappointed that no one died, why go to all that trouble of filming a crash and everyone survives most with not even a scratch? !
What is it with the producers trying to force maddie into the hero role all the time?
Is chesneys girlfriend going to paralysed for 2 days like sawfee was after her accident?

Hating michelle being back with Steve.

Just caught up with the thread. So so sad Julie is leaving. I love her frocks and big teeth and she's so kind. Brilliant actress too.

Why won't all the annoying ones piss off? Oh no, they just get all the meaty plots. These lady few years had been all windasses, sawfee/jenna/maddie, fuzz/ty/ches and michelle. Everyone i hate. Even Steve is annoying me now he's back with michelle. He just becomes a whimpering boring old sap when he's with her.

I thought Eileen looked different as well. Different hairstyle or weight loss? Might have to watch again and decide.

You're brave watching it again.

Ha! Couldn't face the whole episode but watched the bit in the cab office. The things I do for this thread! To me I think she's lost weight.

I think she's lost weight too.

She's lost a hell of a lot of weight.

Sad about Julie leaving.

I think Roy is brilliant, I loved the fact that he went with the ashes to the place where he and Hayley first kissed. Aww.

I've just seen an article saying Maddie is leaving. I think that's a shame as I think she has potential. I think she adds an additional dimension into the Webster and I think she has done a good job of showing someone from a different background trying to fit in. I can understand why a young actor will want to move on though.

Sarah Louise is to return and take a shine to....

Callum

Owen's wife is to appear shortly, I presume that will lead then to his departure.

The actress who plays Owens wife is the one who played Lorraine in Ee many many moons ago. I think she played the docs wife in peak pracice as well. I like maddy and sad she's leaving. She's good at comedy. Her and Tim are great together

Oh she was in Doctors years ago too.

Not surprised about Sarah-Lou and Callum. She's as bad as her mother for picking unsuitable men.

Maddie is leaving? Happy days indeed.

I feel Maddie adds nothing to the show so I'm thrilled she's going!

No loss, in my opinion, and if Sophie goes, that would be even better.

They didn't seem to know what to do with Maddie's character. She arrived via a story of Sophie and Sally helping to serve dinner at a shelter, and Sophie falling 'in lurve' with her.
She transformed for a while, working in the garage and the factory, and being somewhat of a heroine during the (pointless) bus crash story.

Then her latest twist of playing spiteful tricks on Norris...ridiculous stuff.

Seems that those who survived the bus crash are leaving in droves.

I'll make the sign of the cross if that happens.

So Corrie is about to have the mother returning storyline at the same time as Emmerdale. Yawn.

And the teen pregnancy the same tine as Hollyoaks.....

And yet I watch them all
