When I was a college, we used to drink in the Everyman Theatre bar.

We were sat at a table with Brookie's Karen Grant, and Craig Charles, now in Corrie, but then a relatively unknown comedian married to the then more famous Cathy Tyson, came across, and said I had nice hair.

Weird, but true.

Don't worry, I don't have anymore Corrie trivia to share.

:D

No, not name dropping 'again'. Just adding a little colour, to yet one more moany old thread.

If I was into name dropping, I can come up with many more impressive ones to drop, than Vicky, and Craig Charles.

If I was ever so desperate, that I needed to impress someone like you, I'd have jumped off the viaduct years ago.

Maybe Corrie should get taken over by Aliens - as one of those character cleanouts they often have! Aliens invade Coronation Street.

How did Becky manage to find a handsome man who is moving to Barbados? Which man in his right mind would think of her as a 'catch'. A chain smoking, drunk who loots corner shops. Bonkers.

Plus I don't like it's depiction of Northerners as adulterous drunks. I can't think of one long-term marriage in it (Hayley and Roy? Mmm) or a traditional family set-up.
