There was once a time I'd be interested in what soap writers had to say for themselves but with the slapdash way soaps are written now, I find I no longer care. But I would be interested in hearing from whoever decided that Annie Walker owned the Rovers and bequeathed it to Betty, an explanation for such plot driven writing would be wonderful. The worst thing about that storyline was how it insulted Betty's friendship with Bet Lynch. I'm certain Betty Driver would not have approved.
