I'm loving the Grandad George story on Corrie right now, but then, I love any story that winds up Ken Barlow. There's lots of similarities between George and Ken's old nemesis, Mike Baldwin... does anyone agree? It's Corrie class-war at its best, with George taking over Mike's place as the person standing for everything that Ken doesn't, chalk to Ken's cheese. All we need now is for George to have a fling with Deirdre - or Ken to have a fling with Eve. Now that could be fun.
