They ain't killing a 73 year old off with a dagger.

Unless you vote for the Resident Evil Party at the Tibb Election.

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.

Like Ken Barlow. Actor William Roache is 92, but Barlow is supposed to be about 82.

Cheeky bastards.

They aren't hip, like the Tamworth folk.

Pretending to be in the 70-80 age group.

Why so obsessed with needless death, arista?

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.

Fair enough.

Maybe she'll meet Bradley Cooper and marry him? @Redway

That would be a happy ending for a lot of women.

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.

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.

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
