Most contrived moment: 100 pound Becky weilding a sledghammer (supposedly) that weighs more than she does and 4 men and 2 other women can't take it off of her before she smashes the Barlow's door down. As if.
I gotta agree. Where is Owen and Jason to retrieve their sledge hammer? They must have been cowering outside while senior citizen Ken Barlow tries to protect his property and stepdaughter. On the other hand, Owen being shady Owen... maybe he was hoping Becks would do some serious damage to the walls...maybe to the fixtures, plumbing and more doors --- there could be more fix-it work for Owen's business... meaning MO' MONEY...
Here I go again trying to make excuses for bad writing... I want so much to be able to get the same enjoyment and anticipation I used to have for Corrie...
Earth to ITV.... it is time to jettison Phil Collinson and his "crack" writing team...
