We all have opinions on Coronation Street. There are stories that we love and some that we don't. Same goes for the characters. One of the best stories recently was Ken's affair with Martha and the fall-out continues. One of the most tedious was Tara's revenge on Dev for his one night stand. The revelation that Eileen's dad got a 14 year old pregnant has been one of the more controversial storyines we've had and it's going to have long term repercussions as well. Michelle has two men after her, David is out for revenge and Tony Gordon still hasn't had to pay for his crimes. This is the State of the Street this May and you can read more about it in this essay I've written.

I agree about Ken's affair - and am hoping it'll help Corrie win some awards in the soap awards next year or later this year too.
ReplyDeleteI also like how many of the stories are featuring the senior actors!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree, we've had storylines involving the seniors: Ken, Deirdre, Blanche, Rita, Norris and Emily.
