Mary Taylor, Saint or Sinner?

(This post was originally posted by Flaming Nora on the Coronation Street Blog November 2012, reposted to this blog with permission.)

There have been mixed comments left here on the Coronation Street Blog about Mary getting close to Dev's kids on Coronation Street last night.

Mary fans are delighted she's on screen once more, her happy, smiling face giving a lift to life on the Street. But those same fans also remember that underneath the smile and the muu-muu lies the black heart of a damaged soul.

Let's not forget that a deranged Mary held Norris hostage in a cottage, or that she tried to split up Roy and Hayley and almost lost Roy his licence at the cafe.  I'm sure she means well when she takes on projects such as "helping" Hayley plan the Cropper wedding, but her obssessive behaviour soons kicks in to whatever she's doing and she wants to take over, getting on people's nerves and doing herself no favours at all. 

I used to like Mary but realise now that she is not a nice person, and therefore ideally suited to Norris, who is also another right nasty piece.

I'm sure it won't be long before Mary's obsessive behaviour with Dev's kids will start and we'll see the darker Mary emerge once again.
