Corrie's Amy

[Monadami]

Why on earth has cute little Amy been replaced by a child who wouldn't look out of place in The Omen. Such a shame, I really liked the original Amy.

Oh that is very harsh!

I think they have changed her to an actor who can 'act' a little more, what with the funeral coming up and all, she will probably be getting more lines and screen time generally as she gets older.

I am well pleased.

The old one just looked so uncomfortable on screen.

I thought that last night.... very odd.

And I was really angry this week at Ken and Deirdre talking and eating with their mouths open. It was disgusting!!! I felt a letter of complaint forming in my head.

that talking and eating was pretty gross

Yes, I hate it when they change actors. Im glad Tracy is still the same!! what havoc is she going to wreck?

Yes i was distracted by the new amy also. Maybe old amy's demands had gotten too big?

I think she probably had to concentrate on school, she was getting older.

OMG the old Amy was TERRIBLE! She would just stare at the camera and gawp. I am SO pleased they have changed her - I found her lack of acting skills very off putting!

I know but bless her, she was in it since she was a baby. I wonder if Tracy will notice shes been swapped?!!

Then old Amy couldn't really act, just nod.

I am pleased they change the actress. The new little girl is from the same agency as the little boy who plays Simon so hopefully the acting will be just as good!

This is what they always do with soap kids though innit? They have one who's there from being a baby and is a crap actor then they ship in a stage school kid when they're a bit older and have to emote properly.

Anyway, Amy probably inherited her tendencey to regenerate from her mother!

the old amy was terrible - and she had weird Gallagher brother eyebrows.

the new one will be some brattish graduate from the Sylvia Young school of overacting.

The old Amy always looked like she was getting no enjoyment whatsoever from what she was doing. Whereas Simon, for example, does look like he's having some fun. It was uncomfortable watching her being uncomfortable. Glad theyve let her go.

History repeating itself. Tracey herself was played by a child who couldn't act then reappeared as another child who was a bit more with it. Then of course she was someone ELSE as an adult! I notice Nicky has gone through another reincarnation as well.

David has lasted a long time though hasnt he? This one goes back years. And Sophie? I do remember Sarh-Lou's rapid ageing into Sarah for the pregnancy storyline.

All the Nicks have annoyed me equally. Im impartial.

The old Amy was ok in the CBeebies Winter song, she even got to stand in the front row.

I wonder if June Whitfield has been bought in to become a kind of new Blanche? No one could ever match the old Blanche.

But I do love June, she is so funny. Im wondering if she will become a feature. I cant remember the old Sophie and Rosie. David has been David for as long as I can remember. Im please we have had a Gail reprieve. For now.

And Sally Webster.. She's been gone for ages now hasn't she?

And Ted - where's he gone???

GFatemybaby - Sally Whittaker has revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer at the same time her TV character (Sally Webster) was battling the disease
Here

And poor tracey last night couldn't stop looking at her daughter, proabbyl wondering who she was!

Oh poor Sally Whittaker - that's awful.

Always the way with soap children. Any old baby or toddler, replaced by young child who can act, replaced by better looking teenager who will add a 'hot' dimension to the storylines.

the new has got abit more personality.
