Coronation Street

Yes great to see Vera back on screen at long last!

All About Soap had a Summer preview in today issue;



And ive given them a while to settle in but I still dont like the Mortons. The Connor family are great and some of my favourite characters in the show at the moment, but the Mortons I just cant warm to.

Oh no - not another Yawn.

Have to agree with you on the Mortons, Sinbad just doesn't fit in and there's too many kids, I'm just not interested in them.

Spoiler from Daily Star

WOW excellent stuff tonight in an episode written by Jonathan Harvey. I expected a good episode when I saw his name on the credits but this was superb. The Connors taking centre stage also helped make this episode so good.

My poor Liam though - Paul was the one who deserved a slap!

Also enjoyed the Duckworths again and even Cilla wasnt bad tonight .

I'm concerned about the state of Liz Dawn. She really isn't a well woman at all. I know she was acting after just falling downstairs but she's struggling to talk in some scenes.

Anyway, a good episode... Kym Ryder can really act can't she!

Who knew a former-manufactured band mate, could act, and good! I hate to say it but she knocks over Kate Ford's performance as well

Yeah she was great, as was Rob James-Collier.

funny how I was thinking Jez when Liam was crying.

I think a sign of good acting is how actors laugh or cry because emotions are hard to act. Michelle is a lot better at crying than Tracey. Can't take Deirdre seriously when she cries because the neck veins bob about

The best crying was last week with Eileen (Somebody give Sue Cleaver an award before she retires )

Holly was quite good with the crying as well

Classic Corrie, Hilda gets excited for her first colour TV:

LOL!

You are right it does show how good an actor someone is whether they can cry or not on cue. Kate Ford was hopeless when it came to crying and rarely did real tears.



Good clip. Nice to see the test card on the tv screen as well!
