That will obviously mean a rotten exit for Anna. I won't be watching it I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteWe've been promised lots of twists and turns with Phelan's storyline aka 'we're making this up as we go along'. Nothing is as it appears. I've read the police are hiding an injured, but not dead, Luke while they build a case against Phelan. Some claim that's why his body hasn't been released. Nicola begs Phelan for forgiveness so Anna probably does get convicted. More evidence is possibly yet to emerge: Luke reappears after Dean Fagan finishes his play; Rosie's information about Phelan's visit finally comes out; recovery of Andy and Vinnie's bodies, both shot with the same gun as the one used on Luke. Anna could be sent down but released eventually much in the way Deirdre was. Can we believe actors when they say they're leaving Corrie, making it sound as though it's permanent? Corrie management seems to like tricking an audience who have got wise to the ways of soap producers. Wait for the headlines: 'Viewers are stunned ....' Nobody on this blog will be.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you Humpty Dumpty I found it rather strange that the police had not released the body for burial so I'm sure that something is up and considering that the actor is appearing in a stage play right now maybe that's how they are going to play it - either that or it's just a great hoax on all of us.
What worries me also is Eva's baby problems. Because she is leaving the show and Toyah's surrogate mother loosing the baby, I really hope they don't write it as Eva giving the baby to Toyah to keep and then goes and lives with her mother in France, thereby leaving the show but with an option to return later. Aidan is leaving the show also but I doubt he would leave the factory now that Carla has lent him the money. So he'll probably be another Phelan victim. Whichever way it plays out will be misery.
Jeanine,I doubt Eva can give her baby to Toyah without the father's permission whoever he may be.If Adam is the father it will be weird seeing Peter raise his nephew's child?!
ReplyDeleteSadly the dramatic grooming storyline portraying Bethany as the victim as gone for naught as she's become a tart lying and framing Gary for a crime he didn't commit.
Sarah is to blame for all of this for her bad examples she set over the years with her need for men and manipulations.
If Sarah believes Bethany's lies then she's no better than her daughter.
