Corrie's been "blasted" today in The Sun for not including the Olympics in its upcoming storylines. I say "Good on them!". Coronation Street's about the north, not that London. I can't see many of the characters being able to afford and/or wanting to travel down to London to watch sports when they can sit in the Rovers Return with a hot pot and a half of stout and then go home and watch th'Olympics on telly if they want to.
The Sun quotes a Corrie source saying: "Any references to the Olympics will be in passing and relevant to how it affects our residents, so not overt or heavy at all. It's different for 'EastEnders' as it's on their doorstep."
Quite right too.

Were there a triathlon for drinking, whinging and self-pity Peter would certainly bring home the gold for team GB. He has been in training for years.
Agreed. I'd have had him on the podium for all three medals after last night's (quite sickening)performance!
