Georgia May Foote, who plays Katy Armstrong, has been given a new 12-month contract to stay on Coronation Street.
The Sun reports that the new deal for Georgia will run until May 2014 and will make the actress one of the top earners among Corrie’s crop of young stars.
Our old friend, Mr Curry Sauce told the paper: “It is really brilliant news for everyone at Corrie that Georgia has agreed to stay on. She’s a brilliant actress who has impressed everyone with the way she has taken to playing Katy. On top of that she is a stunning young girl and very popular with male viewers. The improved deal we’ve given her reflects how highly we rate her.”

I have nothing against her but "brilliant actress"? Huh? She is very good looking and that is all what seems to matter in today's rather shallow society.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant actress? Not even close, in fact, her whiny little ways are getting to be a bit annoying.
ReplyDeleteAnd since when were young boys big Coronation Street fans? Maybe that's why the show has of late been so dull and boring. Save the PR tripe, she's not amazing at all.
Oh come off it, Curry Sauce! A pretty girl and very sweet I'm sure, but if her character left the show, most viewers wouldn't even notice. Sad thing is that you could say the same thing about half the cast these days. Lots of dull and expendable characters about whom is it impossible to care. Unfortunately they are the ones who seem to be getting all the storylines...
ReplyDeleteMr Curry Sauce really needs to tone down the hype. "Brilliant news for everyone at Corrie"? "She's impressed everyone". I don't think so.
ReplyDeleteAnd it is 2013, so isn't it time to stop saying tired old nonsense like she's popular with male viewers. I imagine most of the male viewers these days are gay.
I notice Mr. Curry Sauce says exactly the same thing every time a contract is renewed.
ReplyDeleteAnd they said Helen Flanigan (Rosie Webster) was a brilliant actress as wel!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course Stella is a brilliant actress who has impressed everyone.
ReplyDeleteVery popular with male viewers? And who might they be? Not the males that I know. Most of them are gay and do not care what she looks like and the rest....well, my better quarter, shrugs and picks up the newspaper when the Kateh/Chesneh story comes on.
ReplyDeleteI'm Male, not gay and never miss an episode. I like Katy,she's pretty but not such a great actress. She does fit the 'mould' of modern day actresses now - pretty and dumb but good for magazine covers!John
ReplyDeleteI hope they bring her and Tommy together..they would make an interesting couple IMO.
ReplyDeletenjblas, I agree with your comments! I am watching here in Canada Gail, Kylie and David have been away for weeks and I didn't miss them a bit.
