Kirk is played perfectly just as he is but, while he doesn't need a storyline of his own, it would be good to see more of him in ones for Beth or Maria. Agree about Peter. Toyah has done the impossible and made him so boring. Can we see Peter and Tim in a storyline; a comedy caper, maybe losing a drunk Rover's customer in a cab.

No disrespect but I disagree regarding Faye and Izzy ( I cannot stand either one of these characters).<br />TVOR - agree with you regarding Fizz, Yasmeen (whatever happened to the storyline where she was running the Community Centre? She is a well-educated woman and they have her working at Roys?)

There was a great brother-like relationship between him and Zeedan that just seems to have completely disappeared. There are a lot of younger characters and I find a lot of them (Craig, Faye, Simon, Summer, etc.) fun to watch. Maybe give one of them a paper route so they interact with Norris, or some club at the community centre that aLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12008737723977626982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-63395779018177354632017-10-25T13:24:20.330+01:002017-10-25T13:24:20.330+01:00My five underused characters would be:

She's been on the screen a long time as well and has had a few good storylines of her own in the past but there's really been nothing major since Hope's illness. Then there's Sean.

The bond the two of them have writes itself and is true Corrie. <br /><br />I think Yasmeen is one we take for granted too. Shelley is a brilliant actress and she can be quite opinionated when it suits her reminiscent of Ena Shraples back in the day, saying what she wants without a filter.
