They ain't killing a 73 year old off with a dagger.
Unless you vote for the Resident Evil Party at the Tibb Election.:devil:

Yes Evil be it could break her neck
Have David kill her. They'd been teasing it for so long, it's only natural he should be the one to do her in.

That would be groundbreaking
We get to see them stapping her naked onto a chair
inside the Super Fast Alien spaceship.
Then the Theme Music.........................

err you okay Arista
Gail is iconic, she has had some amazing story line and quite a few comedy moments, hope they give her a good send off
Maybe Joel will murder her if she susses him? especially as he is now targetting Bethany

That’s up to her. She can just move on and pop back up on FaceTime or for (more failed) weddings. Not everyone wants characters unnecessarily killed off just for the sake of drama.

The odd thing is she's not supposed to be 73 in the show. I think when she first got the part, they shaved about 10 years off her age, and she's acted 10 years or so younger since. :p
Like Ken Barlow. Actor William Roache is 92, but Barlow is supposed to be about 82.
I wonder if she feels satisfied with her career, think I'd wonder what else I could have achieved if I'd done the exact same job for 50 years

Maybe she’s contemplating more on what she’s done than what she hasn’t done and wants to devote more time to the charities she supports, case-closed.

David already pushed her down the stairs before, if she gets pushed again then they're just running out of ideas.

Yeah, I doubt they’re going down that route. Even Macleod’s not that sensationalised-for-the-sake-of-being-sensationalised in his daftness.
Plus I read that she’s gonna have a happy ending.

I haven't watched Corrie for years but I always remember the David Psycho era & Richard Hillman, oh and the fella who tried to fake his death etc ,so I guess it's about time they give Gail something happy.

Cheeky bastards.
They aren't hip, like the Tamworth folk.
Pretending to be in the 70-80 age group.:inamood:

Fair enough.
Maybe she'll meet Bradley Cooper and marry him? Redway
That would be a happy ending for a lot of women.:laugh:

leaving Corrie, to do Strictly maybe :think:
would be a nice second 70+ female signing in a row for them i think, biggest soapstar too by far
somehow i can see Helen being a nice partner for Vito (as a follow up to last years win with a younger generation talented soapie actress)
Richard Hilman needs to finish the job
It would actually be cool if they brought him back for a hallucinatory-type sequence that Gail experiences just before she passes, assuming the character does die.
…she was probably set to leave 5 years ago but being a female, they delayed her pension age…I don’t watch Coronation Street but I was looking at the stats and she’s almost at the very top and close to William Roach in terms of her Street appearances…well done, Gail…

A nice gentle end.
Far better would be
An illegal Immigrant breaks in
Smashing a Bottle over her head
as the music plays leave the blood running on the floor......................
Great way to get everyone to watch
