In an interview today with The Manchester Evening News, Bill Tarmey who plays Jack Duckworth, reveals he’s thinking of leaving Weatherfield and quitting Coronation Street.

He told the paper: "I'm 65 and I'm enjoying myself so much now that I'm thinking about retiring from the Street soon - that's unless they get rid of me first." Bill has played the part of Jack for 28 years. What'll Vera do without him?

I'm not too bothered about Jack Duckworth, he is old character who doesn't offer too much to the show anymore. I would prefer some new juicy storylines with some cool new characters who can really make us watch.

True, but he and Vera will be missed

Grrr Jason and Sarah are doing my head in, I can understand where they are coming from but they ain't half annoying, I'm almost want David to ruin the wedding!

You wish will come true :laugh:

I thought it was Vera who was going to be leaving for most of the time but Jack was still going to be in the Rovers regularly? That's what you said before Chewy...

...Has that changed since then?

Oh I am sure they will be. I just don't enjoy them as much as other Coronation Street fans do I guess.

Yeah looks like they are both leaving now

What does the title mean 'DAVIDS SUICIDE IN PICTURES!!' He's not leaving is he?

[spoil]Coronation Street's David Platt finally goes over the edge later this month when he drives his car into a canal in an attempt to commit suicide.

On the day of his sister Sarah's (Tina O'Brien) marriage to Jason (Ryan Thomas), David – played by 19-year-old Jack P. Shepherd – leaves a suicide note and voicemail messages for his family and sets off to kill himself.

A source told DS: "If it's the last thing David does, he's determined to ruin Sarah's special day…"

The dramatic on-location scenes were filmed yesterday in Manchester and are due to transmit in a one-hour special on Wednesday, October 31.

Small Spoiler
[spoil]You all know by now that Jim McDonald is going to be back on Coronation Street later this year to put a cramp in Liz's style and a bump in the road to her wedding. The Mirror reports that the cast are already being warned about the return of Charles Lawson with posters featuring his mug shot plastered around the green room! The online article mentions Charles' past volatile reputation but I think that if there are posters, it's probably playing on the fact that Jim is being released from prison (though it's not another prison break, that would be too silly). More than likely it's just a memo! Now, if we could just get Andy to return to Weatherfield for the wedding too, we'd have the McDonald clan all back together once again! In any case, Charles going to be back for just six weeks and I for one, am looking forward to it! [/spoil]

Alot of interesting things coming up there.
[spoil]Apart from the Morton going off the rails, is it like the 1000000 time we've seen a teen go of the rails. [/spoil]

Good good. Thanks for those spoilers.

But I've made a vow to never read any spoilers again.

[spoil]I dont think shes gonna be as bad as David[/spoil]

Yeah we need Andy back i miss him
Thanks for these though some good stuff comimg up

You never know, he might turn up

agreed.Did you hear sarah on friday saying that they werent having a cake there were going to link each others arms and drink melted chocolate out of each others champagne glasses as a symbol of their love lmao.Me and my bf were wetting ourselves as that.
The divs-like anyone would actually do that lol

lol Sarah and Jason would, The Plonkers:laugh2:

[spoil]Shock! Horror! The Mirror is reporting today that The Very Beautiful Liam and The Terribly Gorgeous Maria are going to get pregnant! If this is true, and a baby eventually arrives, Coronation Street casting staff are going to have their work cut out finding the world's most visually attractive twins to take over the role of the Connor-Sutherland offspring.

But I'm getting ahead of myself now. There is a long time, and a lot of dramatic potential, between the announcement of a pregnancy and the pitter patter of tiny feet. As "a source" told the Mirror: "They're two of the best-looking people in the show and they seemed a perfect couple for this story. It has the usual many twists and turns."

Samia Smith and Rob James-Collier are reported to be delighted about the upcoming storyline.

[spoil]Carla Connor’s new man Tony Gordon might have brought a smile to Carla’s face and filled her office with roses.

But there’s trouble brewing when Tony’s crazy ex-wife Lindsey turns up.

Carla gets more than she bargained for as Lindsey storms into the factory and gives Carla a slap.

And it has been exclusively revealed to itv.com that crazy Lindsey will be played by actress Susie Amy, best known for her role as Chardonnay in Footballer’s Wives.

Susie starts filming next week and will be on the Street for three episodes.

That’s probably three more than Carla Connor might like
