Coronation Street producers have defended criticism of Hope's cancer storyline after some fans claimed it was “offensively” unrealistic.
The reaction on twitter to this picture and tweet from @itvcorrie says it all.
The Independent reports that fans with personal experience of neuroblastoma have branded Coronation Street's treatment of the aggressive disease a “farce”.
Rob and Victoria Young, whose three-year-old daughter Ruby is a sufferer, wrote a message on their daughter’s fundraising page describing their “disgust”.
Coronation Street have issued a statement reading: “We have not at any stage said Hope is not cured at all. This is an ongoing story which has been researched throughout.”
