Coronation Street - Better Call Barlow

[joeysteele]

I haven't liked the way this storyline has unfurled.

Being honest, I found the acting last night over the top,a poor climax to the whole thing and her getting up after falling and still spouting off was really unconvincing and beyond belief.

Tina is a character I have quite liked in Corrie but this event last night was one of the worst moments in Corrie for me, awful acting.
AS a lady I was chatting to earlier who was in her 60s said, she had to wait up to watch Coronation street at 9pm for that rubbish.

Coronation Street's Antony Cotton signs new one-year contract

Coronation Street star Antony Cotton has confirmed that he will be sticking with the soap for at least another year.

The actor, who plays Sean Tully, announced the news on Twitter today (June 9) after finalising a new deal with the ITV show.

Cotton also hinted that there are big plans for Sean, who will be brought to the forefront of the show in his own storyline later this year.

[Natalie.]

He is never going to leave is he?

[Marsh.]

They love their useless characters over at Corrie. Hasn't Kym Marsh's contract been renewed too.

I can't actually think of anything useful or a single plot line either of them have had.

I think Kym's contract has been renewed.

At first I was glad Kym join the show but she doesn't seem to get any interesting storylines.

I think the storylines between Steve and Michelle are boring.

I would like Michelle to get a big storyline if she's going to stay on the show.

Presumably Nick changed it to get back at Leanne, although, the old name had no reference to Leanne anyway, lol. It could be that he changes it back eventually.

Cheeky monkey try and go if you can its really really good ^_^
And Chewy I hope they do change it back as I much prefer the bistro as a name

[Drew.]

"I'll book us a meal at Just Nicks" has no ring to it and sounds really bad, reminds me of a cheap kebab takeaway or something.

[Scarlett.]

It does sound really bad, lol. The character's will probably still call it the Bistro though.

Oh god, I just realised, if they rename it, the titles are going to be out of date again D: D: D: D:

[joeysteele]

Really wish Corrie would get some better storylines and for goodness sake write out Leanne, she has way gone over her time in the street.

How on earth, not being his natural Mother would she be allowed to be the guardian of Simon, when his Grandad and step Grandmother live in the street,also his Aunt.
His Dad is a waste of space but Leanne bringing yet another man into that lad's life would surely have social services re-considering the best environment for him.

Her character really irritates me, I know that means good acting from her but I am fed up of seeing her miserable face and tantrums now.

[BigSister]

LOL Just nicks reminded me of this thread when I saw it tonight

[Marsh.]

How on earth, not being his natural Mother would she be allowed to be the guardian of Simon, when his Grandad and step Grandmother live in the street,also his Aunt.

Because she adopted him.

Yes but she needs to provide a stable home and environment not have him have to put up with all her chopping and changing as to men.

Good to see Ken back & his little "this street never changes" when he got out the taxi (for his first scene on the new set lol)...

He had been saving up all that over acting while he's been away too, bless...

[joeysteele]

Honestly,I was in hysterics laughing when Ken came back to the house after talking to Carla in the Rovers.
When he yelled at Dierdre and she started blubbering,I shouldn't have but I just burst out laughing when she did that.

i feel like a donna now. infarct i am off to get one and large chips.

[flamingGalah!]

Is anyone supposed to care that Les Dennis's character may have inherited a genetic heart condition??!? :hehe:

And the love triangle of Dev-Mary-Julie, was it deliberate that it is the 3 worst & OTT/hammy actors on Corrie or pure coincidence??

[Scarlett.]

Corrie is really at a bit of a low point atm, I can hardly bring myself to watch it, Stuart Blackburn needs to go.

[Drew.]

Corrie and Emmerdale going through bad patches, Would say its been a better year for Corrie than Emmerdale though, Emmerdale has been pretty poor all year apart from the big storylines (Donnas death). Not really good for soaps atm.

[LukeB]

i really don't understand how corrie gets 7m for such poor episodes, i mean they do come up with some silly stuff like i've seen that lamp somewhere,

[Scarlett.]

There's just nothing interesting going on at the moment, the whole Tina thing has been dragged out waaaay too long, both Emmerdale and Corrie need new producers, stat.

[Drew.]

Majority of the cast in Emmerdale are whats bringing it down, Those two lesbians are awful, This new Tracy character is probably the worst character the show has ever had, Kerry is terrible.. the list goes on. Corrie has a much more solid cast but the writers are letting them down.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, Corrie at least still has a proper identity, Emmerdale has kinda become a whole different show.

[Drew.]

Yeah, half of the characters don't fit in with the whole farm/village life.

[Cal.]

EastEnders is far better in my opinion, but unfortunately Coronation Street has cemented itself as top dog and will have to go through a really awful patch (like EastEnders 2011-2013 - which is ultimately what has put into Number 2, sometimes Number 3 spot) for EastEnders to ever be superior in terms of ratings again. However, soaps are the one thing on telly where officials mean nothing, and I'm pretty sure EastEnders gets much more viewers in officials than Coronation Street.

[Scarlett.]

I don't like how unimportant Home Farm is these days either, it used to be that the richest family in the village liked there, now its just Declan.

[Drew.]

Completely agree, said that to someone not long ago. It needs a strong family living in it.. Even the Wylde family did it justice.

[Scarlett.]

Completely agree, said that to someone not long ago. It needs a strong family living in it.. Even the Wylde family did it justice.

http://www.virginmedia.com/images/Emmerdale-Wyldes-wk8-431x300-3.jpg

It's annoying what they did to the Kings, and its even more annoying seeing what they've turn Jimmy into, he's like some kind of clown character now.

[Cal.]

Emmerdale completely destroy perfectly good families, the only exceptions are the Dingles!:fist:

The Wyldes suffered the exact same fate as The Kings in a shorter time frame.

[Drew.]

Jimmy is a joke now, his character at the moment is the worst it's ever been. And i agree Who Is She, They destroy families and characters that don't need touching that are perfectly fine, theres not enough realism in it and you easily lose any connections with the characters.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, the Wylde family showed real potential, then they got rid of them like a year later. Also the way they treat long term characters is terrible, Viv and Terry, both killed off screen, Donna, killed off in some crap storyline.

[Cal.]

Jimmy is a joke now, his character at the moment is the worst it's ever been. And i agree Who Is She, They destroy families and characters that don't need touching that are perfectly fine, theres not enough realism in it and you easily lose any connections with the characters.

Yep, I get that the actors playing Natasha and Mark wanted to leave, but there was no need to loose Nathan or Maisie at all. They got rid of Mark and Natasha in a way which was so over the top and lacked realism with Natasha killing Mark and then being sent to prison for 21 years, ruining any chance of them returning. They then completely ruined Nathan in his final months, and Maisie completely lost her fieriness that we were promised in the first place.

Yeah, the Wylde family showed real potential, then they got rid of them like a year later. Also the way they treat long term characters is terrible, Viv and Terry, both killed off screen, Donna, killed off in some crap storyline.

Yes, completely agree with this also. The fact that a great character like Viv's final scene was lying asleep on a couch is ridiculous, they could have at least given more drama with the fire and utilized it more, perhaps given Viv something to do like running into the burning flat to save the twins instead of being a plot device in her own exit! I think Donna's story has been a high for 2014, much like Killer Cameron was 2013's high, but she shouldn't have been killed off.

[Drew.]

Donnas storyline has been the only slight positive this year, same with Camerons last year which was really good though, but the smaller story-lines that fill in the gaps for all the months inbetween the big ones are just awful. Every episode involves crime, someone stealing or doing something illegal, someone cheating, someone lying or just something completely unrealistic. The writers said they have "big" things coming in the Autumn/end of the year so fingers crossed they don't mess this up as well.

[waterhog]

bet linch returns ok mockkkkerrrrrrrrr

[flamingGalah!]

I hate what Blackburn has done to Todd, he is now a completely different character to what he used to be, quite ridiculous how someone could change that much...

But despite him being changed I still actually really like Todd, I wanted him to punch vile Sean in the face tonight! Now that is a character that needs axing, god knows why they keep him, he cannot act, his character is vile & yet I understand they are setting him up with a vicar :sleep:

I think they have permission to expand onto that new street over the next few years, that's probably why they changed it, we never really saw down that street much in the past anyway, a Newton and Ridley's van always blocked it.

How long do we have to wait for Carla to shop Rob to the police?

new trailer is out - MASSIVE story coming up for Todd where he is assaulted and left physically scarred! Really interesting way to take the character and finally something for Bruno Langley to get his teeth into.

Oooh.

It's been a while since they've done something like that - interesting that it'll be Steve behind the wheel.

wgYcjz9S8ok

Best Christmas eve episode ever :p

Was that when Karen set fire to the car and Tracy and Steve thought Amy had died inside? Then Tracy went back to the street to confront Karen on the roof?That was AMAZING!

[Scarlett.]

Thats the one :D

[waterhog]

i miss karen.

[BigSister]

oooh Annie that's cool about nearly being near Beth and kirks wedding. Really looking forward to that in the new year ^_^
And chewy I agree that was one epic scene. I thought Amy had died at first!

[Cal.]

Tracy Barlow has been reinvented!

By far my favourite character in the show at the minute.

[Marsh.]

"That stairlift's great"

:joker: That's that plot hole sorted.

[Cal.]

"That stairlift's great"

Owen mentioned to Anna when they first moved into the flat that he would have to pay out for a stairlift for Izzy.

[Marsh.]

Owen mentioned to Anna when they first moved into the flat that he would have to pay out for a stairlift for Izzy.

Given what we've seen of that staircase when Leanne lost the baby I'm surprised one has fit in.

How did she get her chair into it? :laugh:

[Gstar]

Excited to see the Kylie/drug dealer storyline come to blows tonight as there isn't anything remotely interesting going on elsewhere in the street

[Gstar]

When Kylie sprinkled the drugs onto the floor I don't think she knew how much got onto her face and hair, I thought she was gonna go home and everyone being like "why are you covered in cocaine lol xx"

[Marsh.]

Am I missing something?

Izzy broke up with Gary months and months ago. He's recently started going out with this Alya girl and now the whole family are treating him like he's cheated on Izzy? :confused:

[Gstar]

Izzy needs to D.I.E

[LukeB]

Why is Sally so angry? what happened?

[Scarlett.]

Why is Sally so angry? what happened?

I find myself asking stuff like that a lot these days, usually turns out to be a super sudden character change to suit a plot.

[LukeB]

I mean why is she embarrassed and had to cancel something?:laugh:

[Gstar]

just came across this old episode, it's nice seeing how things were back in the day. Kevin (sally's ex) was actually good looking

[waterhog]

cheeky monkey i love you - brill news - i want to break free - before you wake me up before you go go. love 80's

[Gstar]

I swear this thread used to say "Coronation Street discussion" but now it's just "Coronation Street" :s

I cannot believe that Jason's dad isn't in the minibus crash :( his character is just useless, trifling and ugh no. Every single thing he says and does annoys me and he has definitely outstayed his welcome

[Gstar]

omg

http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u511/gstarrrr4/nygtw_4_gif2.gif

They can't leave us on that sort of cliff hanger

[Vanessa]

OMG I wonder if Tracy will help Carla. :shocked:

[Smithy]

I'm kind of annoyed nobody is gonna die (I can't see them killing Carla off) it just seems like a bit of a stunt for ratings, it's not gonna have any long lasting effects like the team crash (which is what this was compared to)

ugh so wanted izzy to be in that mini bus her character really is annoying actually all of her family could of gone on a trip in that mini bus kill em all off

I don't really care about Clara anymore she's outdated imo

I find it funny how she has survived being hunted down and nearly burning down with Her ex boyfriend at gun point, raped, nearly killed again by her boyfriend, overdosed, been in an car crash and now this and she could still live :joker:

[Cal.]

I have a feeling Carla will die.

No one dies but Sinead is seriously injured.

[Marsh.]

I still can't get over Julie walking around ripping her dress up and bandaging everyone up like Florence Nightingale. :joker:

[Gstar]

Julie acted really good tonight. For some reason I think Gary's girlfriend might die because that blow to her head looked really bad and there might be some internal bleeding #EastendersEmmaPlagiarism. In all seriousness it would be disastrous if she died because Gary will inevitably go back to Izzy and I just CANT

[Marsh.]

Yeah, that looked like quite a big gash.

[Scarlett.]

First time watching in weeks, why is the Bistro all scaffolded up?
http://i.imgur.com/ScSJKCC.png

[Drew.]

Leanne is back working there and they've been discussing about decorating it and giving a new look, can only assume thats part of it although i only thought they were doing a bit of painting inside :think:

[Marsh.]

Hopefully they're getting rid of the daft Just Nick's sign.

[Drew.]

They can take Nick and chuck him in the skip with it too

[Marsh.]

That's just reminded me. What happened to Claire King? Did she just disappear? :laugh:

[Scarlett.]

It looks like the whole exterior is getting redone then, hopefully it'll fit in a bit more with the rest of the street, lol, that being said, it's going to make the opening titles out of date lol. Which is funny as thats the same reason the 2010 ones went out of date, lol.

[Drew.]

Yeah it doesnt fit in with the cobbled street/houses/shops at all, its far too modern and flashy. Same with that terrible Salon in Emmerdale.

[Scarlett.]

New Bistro spotted
http://i.imgur.com/f7ovSch.png

http://i.imgur.com/abd8O7A.png

[Gstar]

It still says Nicks Bistro

http://i.minus.com/ibyNL7NTK58qB4.gif

[Scarlett.]

That's it's original name, the new name was "Just Nick's" lol

[Samm]

They've made it sound tacky

[Scarlett.]

They've made it sound tacky

It's going back to "Nick's Bistro" though lol

[Gstar]

They are both equally awful

[Scarlett.]

What about The Joinery? lol

It sorta did, lol

[Drew.]

Looks like an old shack from a western movie. Can't really see too much but it looks alright.

[Scarlett.]

It looks different, which is always good.

So glad they dropped the whole "locations that have been on fire are orange" deal lol.

[Natalie.]

is it a pirate ship now

[Jack.]

is it a pirate ship now

:laugh2:

[Scarlett.]

It more reminds me of the sort of Bistro you'd see in Neighbours, lol.

[BigSister]

Yeah I was gonna say something like Neighbours too Chewy
I suppose it looks more like a bistro while now it looks like a nice restaurant. I just hope its not just going to be somewhere for the young ones (Not like Dev Juile Gail Maria) who sometimes go in for a meal.

[Marsh.]

Looks like the Woolpack to me.

A cross between that and the Coffee shop from Hollyoaks.

[Marsh.]

It looks different, which is always good.

So glad they dropped the whole "locations that have been on fire are orange" deal lol.

I've never noticed such a deal.

[Scarlett.]

I've never noticed such a deal.

Yep, found that out when I visited the set years ago, remember that the Bookies, Underworld, Nick's Bistro, and various other sets did. I remember thinking it seemed a bit pointless to limit how they looked lol.

[Marsh.]

:laugh: Interesting.

[Samm]

The new look, looks like the pub near where I live

[Scarlett.]

Here's a better pic

[Scarlett.]

Nick will have stole them while Ian was busy at the NTA's O:

[Drew.]

Huge improvement on the last look

[Scarlett.]

It looks a lot less "set" like, more like a place you'd actually see, lol.

[Niamh.]

hey Chewy, do you know how they're going to handle Deirdres departure from the show?

[Scarlett.]

No idea, I'm guessing we wont see it on screen til next year.

[Niamh.]

No idea, I'm guessing we wont see it on screen til next year.

Where is she supposed to be now or have they even said?

Visiting Bev (Shelley's mum) who's ill or something like that.
