(This post was originally posted by IamSimon on the Coronation Street Blog in September 2011.)| Many would argue that Rita Sullivan was the soul of Coronation Street. For many years she was proprietor of the local newsagents but now all she seems to do is make little digs at Norris. |
Now I know she is a Corrie legend but she doesn't seem to do much these days. As I said, she makes little digs at Norris and acts like a sort of mother figure to Tina but...that is it!
Is it time for Rita to go or could a meaty storyline completely change the character for the better?

Rita is as much Corrie as the name Corronation Street is to the show, if it ain't broke don't fix it. That's what'swrong with today, when you have a winning formula everyone thinks you need to fix it. They killed off Jack and that was plain stupid. The young characters are fine but have so much drama and fireworks and no stability. Viewers want some consistency, some normalcy,wisdom and longevity to the characters i.e. Betty. Not everyone likes the Owen, Kersty characters yelling and screaming or psycho Tracy, small doeses but too much and it's a turn off. Want to replace someone replace Nick, got to be one of the ugliest characters ever and does nothing, Original Nick much better.
