continuity editor - On corrie?? no such thing - writers forget about the past: like Tim not being able to read - expandable walls on the second floor to allow for 2,3 or 4 bedrooms - unknown parking spaces for all the residents' cars on the street - babysitters for all the little children that we never see, loft conversions with no staircase and no egress window - the list goes on and on
ReplyDeleteDo you get the feeling the bosses have seen the slipping ratings and have panicked, hence the flurry of employment opportunities lately? They're hoping if they cast a wide enough net and bring in lots of new people they may get lucky and find a combination of talent that will work to raise the level of quality that's been slipping along with the ratings. Who knows? It just might work. For all our sakes, let's hope so!
