Phil Collinson reveals 2012 Corrie storylines

The always fab Inside Soap magazine has pulled a blinder today. They've got an interview with Coronation Street Producer Phil Collinson in which he hints and teases storylines for 2012. Some of them, to this fan, sound good, some just ok and some plain rubbish. I'll look forward to reading your comments as to what you think too.

Here we go but before we start with the spoilers,  Phil says newcomer Stella Price "is turning into a stalwart of the Street".  Do you agree?  I don't. I've still not warmed to her at all, and I've really, really tried. Honest I have.

The Corrie spoilers, in no particular order are as follows:

Karl Price - he may turn to someone else as he sets off on a dark journey which threatens his and Stella's future.
Becky McDonald - has a humdinger of an exit. Should be good.
Bet Lynch returning for Betty's send-off - he says "All I will say is that I always try to resist looking back!" So that's a 'no' then?
Betty Williams' funeral - will have the trademark bittersweet send off that the character deserves
Rita and Dennis - he says "I'd love Rita to have a wedding, so watch this space!"
Carla and Peter - there'll be heartbreak for Leanne and Simon as Carla and Peter do plan a future together.
Tina and Tommy - will get together in 2012. He says: "They'll follow in the footsteps of all the memorable Corrie couples of the past, like Jack and Vera." 
Jason Grimshaw - we'll get to see a different side of Jason when Rosie leaves.  And he tells the interviewer: "Note to self - we need more of Jason!"

So, Corrie fans, what do you reckon? Anything you're particularly looking forward to or dreading? I'm dreading Tommy and Tina. She should be with Tyrone. Now *that* would be a classic Corrie couple combination.
