Too bad, we were almost rid of the obnoxious Alex. Love the dramatic build up to the death of Maria's dog... I'm sure that Maria and Kirk are just devastated to hear that a dog no one has seen or heard from for eons is now gravely ill.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask me the mistake is Cathy not joining Alex in Scotland and giving us a break.
DeleteI want more Tyrone and Fizz and Chesney and their cute kids in Roy's life and less of of the aunt and nephew from hell.
I agree with Anon above. Hoped that was the last of Alex. Perhaps he and Cathy could take themselves off to sponge off Nigel. Haha, is Kevin the only breakdown garage between Weatherfield and Inverness?
ReplyDeleteDare I say it but I think people held off making negative comments about Alex because of the disability of both the character and the actor. It's fine for the writers to show being disabled doesn't make you a saint and Alex is portrayed as manipulative. Perhaps he learnt it from his mother. But where are his saving graces? For example, we could see him being more affectionate with his Aunty Cathy. The writers might say Alex is an ordinary character who just happens to be disabled but Alex isn't like Izzy. Address the disability, make something of it and then move on with his story. Like how can he possibly live alone in a flat? He scalded his arm in a café full of helpful people and was calling for his aunt in a very distressed way. Oth, perhaps he could manage with support. Roy and Cathy should be discussing issues like this.
ReplyDeleteActually, knowing that Ozzy isn't long for this world, I noticed he is on the Connor couch a lot lately.
ReplyDeleteActually I think they should create an award category for the animal most talked about on blog pages & rarely seen on screen. He would win hands down. Teehee
ReplyDeletesorry, make that "paws" down
ReplyDeletewell folks I owe a huge apology to all those comments about Ozzy being not long for this world - I thought you were all making sarcastic remarks about the family member dying - but lo and behold you were right all along. Fooled me on that one.
