So, what do you think of Californian Pete?

I'm enjoying this new character on Coronation Street, Californian Pete. We've never had such a laid-back, calm and collected fella on Corrie before and I kinda like it. He's a little bit 'whatever', he's reasonable, he listens and he cares. He doesn't drink, he doesn't fight, he doesn't go around breaking hearts.  Oh hang on, yes, he does. He broke little Simon's heart last night.

So, this Californian Pete bloke, what do you think then? Should Corrie bring back the old Peter Barlow and out this imposter or do you want him to stay?

The official Coronation Street website at itv.com/corrie has an interview with Chris Gascoyne about the choice Peter has to make. Will he go or will he stay? He'll stay, of course, it's a no-brainer.  The actor's just come back after a five month break in a Buddhist retreat, it's highly unlikely he'll leave again so soon.

He hasn't changed that much. He's still putting Carla before Simon. Although I suspect (and hope) that he is going to reverse that decision.

I must say, though, that he looks pretty good.

It's as if he was abducted by aliens and then returned, seemingly the same (apart from the shiny white teeth) but not really. There is something mildly unsettling about him. However, after viewing the UK episodes, that tanned calm exterior has developed a few cracks and all is not as nice as it seems.
