I disagree. For me Tim is a perfect Coronation Street character and the scriptwriters obviously love using him. He pricks pomposity and gets all the best lines.
ReplyDeleteI disagree too. Sally and Tim are great together, Sally and Kevin are so old hat now, too much water under the bridge and all that.
ReplyDeleteSally and Tim all the way
ReplyDeleteIt's part of Sally's pretentiousness to take the credit for Kevin's success. I'd hate to see them back together. Tim is perfect for her. They obviously have a great sex life, Kevin would be too tired out. Tim calms her down when she's angry, Kevin would wind her up even more. Sally loves to be admired and adored. Tim provides that, Kevin would be off in his own world in no time.
ReplyDelete@ Humpty Dumpty That's a great observation I hadn't thought about before! -ELK
ReplyDeleteAdd to that, Sally would have to take on little Jack, the reminder of Kevin's affair. That was the roadblock the last time around. Sally and Kevin together would be dull and very "samey", not fresh and new and fizzing with chemistry like Sally and Tim.
ReplyDeleteI love that Tim can see right through her pretentiousness, and plays along because he loves her and also, rather enjoys it. She secretly knows he can see through her and loves him for it. Match made in heaven.
ReplyDeleteCount me in on Team Tim and Sally!Tim keeps Sally grounded and a cool head in a crisis whereas Kevin is quick to lose his temper.Besides why would Sally want to go back to Kevin who cheated on her twice and had the gall to blame her for the affairs and fathered another woman's child expecting her to raise as her own?
ReplyDeleteAnother vote for Tim and Sally!
