Re: Coronation Street

Yeah but a programme about real family life now would just show Mom Dad, and a couple of Kids, glaring at various devices.

Re: Coronation Street

It seems that Soaps IE Corrie St and Emmerdale are intent on showing white males as weak feeble and simple minded specimens, example Steve Mac, Marlon and David in Emmerdale etc etc etc.

You may have a point, by contrast, look at Zeedan, he's smouldering man.

Oh, you live in a boring place!

Re: Coronation Street

Well I thought Liz's face looked unnaturally free from lines -but her neck gave her away!!

The new hairstyle did her no favours either. What is she playing at I wonder?

Attempting to regain her lost youth. Sad.

Sadly I think that all the soaps are so desperate to hang on to viewers, that their story lines are over dramatic and not very believable, as so many disastrous things could not happen in such small communities.

The soaps used to be about everyday life , with a few exciting events from time to time, now it is a new one every week. Down my lane, over the last 30 years, we have had one or two small burglaries but no murders, no neighbours producing illegitimate children, no lethal fires and very few visits from the police.


I agree Twink. The new hairstyle is dreadful and has put 10 years on her.
Tis also true, the soaps used to be about every day life once, they are getting too far fetched now.

I used to like the soaps, but I am afraid to say that I sometimes now don't bother to watch them, so come to my PC to talk to you lot instead...... that just shows how bad they are getting!

Re: Coronation Street

After watching Emmerdale or Corrie, I'm left wondering why, on my small complex of 40 flats (a) we don't have everyone's mobile number in our contacts list, (B) we don't have affairs with each other, (c) we don't all even know each other, (d) we don't all go down the pub to socialise!!!

Am I missing out on an exciting life, somehow??
