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.

Has Tim learnt to read?

Yes he had 1 lesson with Anna and one with sally. He can read now.

I really like David and prefer him when he is evil. He was brilliant during the Lewis storyline.

I always knew primary school teachers were lazy - if they only put some effort in children would learn to read in two lessons.

Anne, we could teach kids to read in one day, but then we wouldn't have a job, so we drag it out over a series of pointless phonics sessions just to be awkward

I don't think he can read yet, he didn't do the auction thing did he?

Please let David go, his character is good but can't take his Leeds accent.
It annoys me that producers think Northern accent so sounds manchester enough, its Yorkshire ffs and corrie is Lancs.
As you were.

And Max seems absolutely fine when given the ADHD medication, no struggles with it at all. I knew all those parents with children with ADHD were lying about how hard it was, you just need some pills and they're cured clearly.

Mytartanscarf waves we must live in the same town... Unless you've escaped

I knew it, Hurricane. I bet you just sit and drink gin half the day.

Hurricane - the parents take the tablets themselves for kicks, that's why the children don't have a complete recovery as soon as they are diagnosed.

The aftermath of Nick's injuries are never mentioned now either.

I had actually forgotten about Nick's after-effects until you just mentioned them, Camo!

What happened to nicks brain injury? Patrick has made massive strides in eastenders after his stroke

Oh poor Steve, his sad face is heartbreaking

Max seriously needs a haircut. You would think David would have sorted that fringe months ago.

Apparently you get evicted 2 days after missing 1 rent payment. Or possibly it's a convenient plot line.

Oh yeah, they're all taking the pills! I forgot about that!

I'm going to have to stop reading because I haven't watched it tonight yet. DS is allowed up while its New Years eve and it requires my full attention.

Unlike teaching children to read.

Sob. Poor Steve.

Omg Steve crying that was so sad. Wonder where that storyline is going

I thought that was really well done. I've been there on NYE, and it's horrible

I agree goodas. It made me fill up. I think he is one of the best actors in the whole show

Sorry you have been there tho.

Poor steve. I'm in tears watching him. Brings back memories. He's such a fantastic actor and I'm glad he's been given this storyline.

Hurricane - beginning with 'G'?

Have escaped now, of sorts, I still live Wigan way though!

Poor Steve.

Anna's anorak annoys me.
