There's a clip of next Friday's episode on the official site now and it looks absolutely fantastic.

Don't watch if you don't want to be know what happens:

Clicky!


Wow - looks great. Can't wait to see it in full.

I love the way Norris just appears with the same expression every time something dramatic happens.

be interesting to see how Violet copes back at the Grimshaws with baby Holly around.

Charlies's murder isn't too far off the aniversary of Maxine's Murder.

apparently the bookies did a cock up by taking bets for who kills Charlie Embarassed

I heard that as well. Pity I didn't know at the time though!

Yeah I read that. I can't blame them because I originally thought it was going to be a whodunnit storyline as well.

Im glad it isnt a whodunnit storyline - they have been done to death in soaps. Its a fitting end that Tracy kills him!

Although I'd never have thought that Tracy would have it in her to be a killer. I think the storyline is good but unrealistic for the character.

I dont think it is out of character at all - she would kill someone soon as look a them Wink

I don't agree. Tracy may be many things but a killer she is not. Having said that, I do think the storyline itself has been executed wonderfully, and Kate Ford has gone up in my estimations. She will be missed.

Once again I hate how the soaps just resort to killing the bad guy to conclude the story.


I think in this case a trial might have been more appropriate. Corrie haven't done a big trial for quite a while - and I think this storyline concluding with Charlie on trial for abusing Tracy would have been a much better conclusion - considering he'd actually be innocent this time around!


Instead I suppose it's going the other way with Tracy ending up in the dock - and presumably getting sent down considering she's leaving!

Who says she's not - we didnt think Alan Bradley was but he tried to kill Reet - and Mad Maya was nice enough at the start but she blew up about 7 shops.

We know Tracy is nasty enough, and if she has talked herself into doing this as revenge for what he did to her she would go through with it.

Trials in soaps have been done to death though as well.
