Kal had potential when he arrived as a personal trainer to sort Nick out, but he's had a face like a slapped backside ever since. Doesn't work with Leanne, for either of them. I wouldn't be surprised if he left before too long. .........and I expect the Alya/Gary thing will be milked for much Loubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863157238652077789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-20632055571089829332014-12-14T03:14:32.474+00:002014-12-14T03:14:32.474+00:00Yasmeen is rather offensive, like the time she wan...Yasmeen is rather offensive, like the time she wanted to book a cab but refused to give too many details, implying that Steve or Lloyd would rush over and burgle their place if they knew she wasn't home, which is offensive on several levels. The Nazirs as a unit don't work for me -- two generations max would have, or a generational cohort alone i.e. grandparents raising the kids, or Kal Defrost Indoorsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-3275389915066961172014-12-14T02:02:35.774+00:002014-12-14T02:02:35.774+00:00You've lost your flamin' mind, if you supp...You've lost your flamin' mind, if you support Yasmeen as a character of interest!

The grandparents should be bringing up the kids, allowing some inter-generational tension and Yasmeen could still have been a community activist in her retirement. As they are now, not working for me.<br /><br />I'm making a big plea to the Corrie writers. Please give characters friends of their own age. For starters, give Yasmeen a friend so she can show Humpty Dumptynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-88926047489444781932014-12-13T15:19:23.970+00:002014-12-13T15:19:23.970+00:00Decent quiet type man of God gets entwined with se...Decent quiet type man of God gets entwined with self obsessed, shallow, middle aged Sean. More ridiculous pairings like the stunning Uni educated Muslim girl Alya and violent mental health issues mate of her Dad's that has a child with a girl in a wheelchair always furtive looking G Windbucket. Same as hatchet faced fire starter Leanne and Kal. 60 year old Liz McMutton and 40 something Crazy world of Athur Brownnoreply@blogger.com
