[QUOTE="Barbara Fan, post: 238163, member: 21"] I only watch(ed) Corrie and i feel that the standard of acting (Chesney, Gemma, Maria, Sean, Fiz et al)was not what it used to be when i really enjoyed it and it was unmissable- and same can be said for the writing - Corrie has lost its way from good old drama, northern wit, humour, pathos and relies on unrealstic plots and scenes and not one wedding, christening, funeral is ever "normal" and is so far fetched and unbelievable. Also how can they afford it all as half of them must be on a minimum wage, but are in a new outfit every scene! I will dip into it from time to time - during lock down but generally for every great Roy, David, Gail Platt, Rita, Ken, Sally, Kevin and Carla there is a whole bunch of characters i had to fwd. I also dont know anyone who A - Watches Eastenders B- Missed it C- Wanted it back Most of the patients in hospital like Corrie and Emmerdale as the 2 soaps to watch, the huge ratings days are long gone and there is far more choice - I think Corrie will have probs when the stalwarts are no longer there, the link to the past - Ken, Rita, Gail and co as many of the younger cast cant act very well and i cant understand the appeal of Gemma and Chesney at all, she is dreadful and will never be a classic Corrie character, but Carla is and they should do everything to keep her.
