There doesn't seem to be a PM facility here or I'd use it, so excuse this everybody :)


I believe it may be (of course the rootin' tootin' knee-jerkin' self-styled Mods of Mount Olympus over there won't lower themselves to formally tell me anything by email :rolleyes: so I'm not entirely certain yet). I do know that I was accused of 'transphobia' for some jokes I made about Matty in Emmerdale, made more in a climate of commenting on the dire state of Issues-led Modern Soaps than any actual prejudice on my part (they didn't bother to check out any of my more considered serious posts about Hayley and praise for Julie D's performance in Classic Corrie, of course).

'That place' is dying a swift death on it's oversensitive derrierre by the look and smell of it now, and I won't miss it (just some of my pals there). I don't like being unfairly accused of being something I'm definitely not by people more reactionary than myself, but then that seems par for the course 'over there' now and I'm far from alone in being treated that way.

I didn't get banned though of course - circumstances forced me to reluctantly step away from the forum so that I could devote more time to my 'transphobia' family :D

Any road, I'm looking forward to joining everyone here after a period of recuperation from my trauma, laid out here on my chaise-longe like a Victorian heroine ;)

Poor old Slacks!

Sam had totally changed, I think she wants Chris because he doesn't want her now..

I think Mike thought Liz's past issues would be brought up and discredit her as a witness..

Sam did not need to go back to Des.She should’ve went to London instead of treating Des like sh!t.Mike seemed a bit jealous did he want to be Deidre’s reference a bit odd but loving the build up to the trial.

The writing was so much better back then, and the characters.
I feel I just watch the current Corrie out of habit, none of the current characters excite me.
I think, as someone said before; I think I am just watching it out of habit now.
Often I am surfing the net when it is on, as it is so boring.

I'm the same, though I stopped watching for years and only really got back into it when the Geoff and yasmeen story got going. I tend to record it, then I can skip through the really tedious bits, which at the moment, is most of it! I'm loving Classic Corrie though, I don't think I appreciated at the time how well written it was and how good the characters were. I'm embarrassed for the current cast and writers at what drivel they're producing!
