Tracy Barlow baby bombshell for Ryan

There's a great spoiler in today's Sun that says Tracy Barlow is going to tell Ryan and Michelle that she's pregnant with Ryan's baby.

But is Tracy going to make Michelle a grandmother or is she just dropping the baby bombshell for effect?

The Sun says that Kate Ford, who plays Tracy, told new! magazine: "Tracy doesn’t act like a regular person. She does something, then thinks about it later. To her, the baby news is great timing. She’s now holding all the cards."

Asked about playing a cougar in the ITV1 soap, Kate added: “Playing a cougar makes me feel old, but apparently boys find them quite sexy. It’s a very enjoyable situation for her [Tracy] and she’s having great sex with a bloke 14 years younger than her."

    Tracy must be the most fertile woman in the North East. Wasnt she told she would have problems conceiving because of her one kidney? Obviously not. I cannot stand Kate Ford or her am dram acting.

  2. There are lots of stupid things about this. First, how does Tracy hold all the cards - only a dope would think that. Second, KF is such a dreadful actress, she should have gone long ago. Regardless of where this leads, the main stupidity is:
    NOT ANOTHER BABY STORY LINE!!!!
    Can the writers not think of anything else?

  3. I have to agree with Frosty on this one.

    Besides, we just did that whole pregnancy thing with her, lying about being pregnant after she'd had the miscarriage. *yawn*

  4. I am sorry but Phil Collinson, the writers and the production team must be trying to wind up fans on purpose. This story is absolutely cringe inducing crap and vomit inducing. How they can think this is a good storyline is anyone's guess. Its not like Tracy is even a villain we can love to hate. This character is just the same, going in circles, yet they insist on renewing her contact and keeping her on.

  5. Wouldn't she possibly struggle carrying a baby to term with kidney issues rather than have problems conceiving?

  6. Does Phil Collinson have serious fatherhood issues? I have never known so many baby storylines in one series at one time.

  7. I agree with everything above - does anybody like Tracy?

    Anything that involves her is a big ZZzzz! What does she have over the producers that she still has her job?

    And if this 'spoiler' is true then Corrie is way past it's sell by date because they are now recycling storylines with the same character i.e Tracy fakes pregnancy AGAIN!. Honestly, my five year old could write better in his sleep!

  8. Nooooooo no more babies! I can't handle this; does he think that's all women are good for?

  9. Can Ken and Diedre handle taking care of a newborn? Specially if they break up over Wendy again. If they need something for Tracy to do, how about mysterious female stalker lurking in the background? Then we find out she is Charlie Stubb's long lost sister out for justice.

  10. Has no-one on Coronation Street heard of contraception? It is so sad to see the terrible decline of what was once such a great show.

  11. I doubt she's actually going to turn out to be pregnant. But, yeah, it's pretty repetitive, and just goes to show what a one dimensional character Tracy is. And maybe how lacking in imagination some of the storyliners are.

  12. I think Tracy will be lying, Ryan will find out and also that Tracy was just trying to get at Michelle and Steve by becoming involved with him. He should just hit her over the head with a heavy object...I doubt he will see the inside of a jail, not with the way justice is handed out on that particular street.

  13. Kate Ford must have some really nasty blackmail on someone in a position of power. Keeps lingering on the screen but in progressively more stupid storylines.
