Should be interesting. I like her in CS.

Can't understand why Piers moved to the states, such a violent country. Oh wait, MONEY would be the answer:)

Pleeeeze ... take him back! We in North America can't stand his nightly show, with his smug, narrow-minded attitude! He is one Brit I can't abide!

Wow. "We in North America can't stand his nightly show." That's one helluva statement. Who is the "we" that you speak on behalf of? The entire continent of N.A.? Impressive. :-(

Julie Goodyear! I am wearing a t-shirt with her and Alec Gilroy as I type this. Bette Lynch is a Corrie icon for sure. :-)

FYI, Beverley Callard will be on two weeks later on Piers Morgan's Life Stories.

Hmmmm...."narrow minded" is often, though to be fair not always, shorthand for "disagrees with my indefensible ideas".

I've read her autobiography and it was so good I read it twice. she has had so much tragedy in her life. If it were a soap opera people would say it was Unrealistic. Mind you having seen her on Celebrity Big Brother she is also prone to highly exaggerating the truth. I do like her though. I hope someone puts it on youtube as i'm not in UK

Well this Canadian cannot stand the man, either. Mr Morgan is a sniveling, patronizing and arrogant sod. I am surprised that any intelligent person actually watches his show. And narrow minded actually means "not receptive to new ideas; having a closed mind". Instead of debate he resorts to ridicule, which usually indicates he is unable to defend his own ideas.

Morgan's a celebrity hack that host hack celebrities. He's also borderline criminal from his days as a Murdoch hand puppet. How he replaced Larry King is mind-boggling.

I'm British and I can't stand Piers Morgan. How he's got as far as he has in the entertainment world is beyond me, there is just nothing likeable about the man.

I don't watch his programme because I detest him, but I might have to steel myself when Julie Goodyear is on, as I love her. And I thought she was great in Celebrity Big Brother.

Canadian here and also can't watch Life Stories, though I have had to cave in & watch a few with my fave actors. He does nothing but court controversy. Even when he asks a benign question, he immediately follows it with an embarrassing zinger. I'd hate to be interviewed by him.

There seems to be a North American cultural bias for British villains. From Alexis on Dynasty down to Simon Cowell in everything. Perhaps meanness with a British accent somehow intellectualizes what are essentially petty, bad manners in the North American mind.
