5 Things Coronation Street is Not

(This post was originally posted by Flaming Nora on the Coronation Street Blog November 2017, reposted to this blog with permission.)

My personal two pennorth of thoughts about Coronation Street right now...

Coronation Street is not Eastenders
Please stop with the darkness.

Coronation Street is not Casualty
Please stop with the hospital scenes.

Coronation Street is not Social Media
Please stop creating storylines that pander to those shouting loudest on Twitter

Coronation Street is not a vehicle for actors to add to their CV
Vic Reeves is fantastic, Jim Moir is a quality actor. But in Corrie he Just Didn't Work.

Coronation Street is not a children's teatime show
Use the word 'testicle', please.
