Whats he saying?. Tbh I don't think he ever looked comfortable doing a soap and I felt he would go at some point, he's better off doing films.

"Tbh I'll be glad to get on with things. It's all unreal there anyway. No challenge. I'll miss the money and a few good friends."

Hmm he could have been a bit more respectful but fair enough in wanting to move on.

Thing is, sounds like he was axed, and this isn't sounding like a "you're character has reached the end of the road" kind of axed - but then, Steve doesn't seem the type to get sacked

Maybe it's the usual actor had a falling out with producers. Would be a shame if he was axed after they've finally made that clan likeable...

I need to ask you what is Lloyd's girlfriend called?, i've forgot her name.. I really like her and think they should use her more.

Possibly, I hope Gary and Anna stay, Gary is a brilliant character (the army diary spin offs prove that)

and she's called Cheryl

I prefer the mom. Ah Cheryl, not a patch on the Hollyoaks one though thanks!.

[flamingGalah!]

Good, can't stand Eddie Windass & the actor sounds like an ungrateful tw@t too...

[Scarlett.]

Steve's usually a nice guy, but tonight he seems to have been a bit of a tw@

[Kerry]

Maybe he's been on the ale

[Scarlett.]

lol yeah, he says everything will be revealed in Sundays NOTW

[bbfan1991]

Maybe he's upset he didn't get enough storylines because the producers favourites Cotton/Kelly/McAlpine and Marsh hog them all?.

[Kerry]

I can't understand him being upset when he's just had/having his biggest storylines yet (Gary/the adoption)

[Scarlett.]

Aye

The Windass family are the most relateable family on the show IMO

[bbfan1991]

Chewy i'm watching the Charlie Stubbs murder on YT, he was a vile man and amazing character.

[Visage]

There was a rumour flying around the Internet when the Windasses first arrived on the cobbles. It was never focused on the show though. If it is true I wonder if they will go with this in light of Eddie leaving the show.

Spoiler:

Len is Gary's biological father, not Eddie

[Scarlett.]

Steve said there's no scandal or sacking involved

Coronation Street's 50th anniversary week will begin with a special shot which gives fans a unique glimpse of wider Weatherfield, it has been revealed.

Monday's first episode opens with a computer-generated look at life beyond the viaduct, showing the neighbouring streets and houses.

Speaking at a Coronation Street press conference yesterday, show producer Phil Collinson explained: "The shot develops into, for the first time, a glimpse of Weatherfield and beyond the beginning and end of Coronation Street and Rosamund Street.

"When we saw that shot for the first time, it just felt very epic and brilliant, and it just felt like a really lovely way of starting the week - saying to the world, 'Here's a big shot, it's going to be a little bit unusual this week and a bit different'.

"So that was the reasoning behind that. We didn't originally plan to do that, but when we saw the shot, we thought that'd be a beautiful thing to do."

Asked to confirm whether it is the first time that such a shot has been featured in the programme, Collinson replied: "It is, I believe so. And then as we go on in the week, we look the other way as well and we see even broader Weatherfield.

"Careful viewers, if they pause their TV afterwards, will be able to see the Red Rec and all sorts of landmarks that have gone in there. It's been created with a lot of love and reference to a lot of landmarks that we've spoken of for many years."

Monday's double bill will see the much-anticipated Joinery bar explosion and tram crash, which will cause terror and tragedy on the cobbles.

[Scarlett.]

We will get a pre-titles scene between Ken and Janice too

[Smithy]

Ohh, so it's the opening scene which has the area, not the titles, got a lil confused then

[Scarlett.]

No, it'll go from Janice and Ken, then the titles will be the camera zooming up over Weatherfield xD

[Smithy]

*is confused*

[Scarlett.]

The episode will open with Ken and Janice talking, THEN it goes into the credits, which take place in that scene

[CarlaConnor]

sounds good!

[Smithy]

Ohhh, I don't really like the idea of that, but i'm sure it'll be done well
