Hmmn. Well, as the person who put that tease on the cover of Inside Soap, I must confess that it's only half the story; the rest we'll save for another fun-packed issue. What actually happens is that Jamie confesses to... Ah. I don't know how to put a spoiler in. I'll go and figure that out. G x You TEASE! Is this just an elaborate ruse to get us to buy more copies? Also: to put something in spoiler tags, you do this: <spoiler>Norris was born a woman.</spoiler> But instead of these: <> you use these: [] |

Hmmn. Well, as the person who put that tease on the cover of Inside Soap You actually work for Inside Soap? Yes. Sorry. I'm the deputy editor. Actually 'acting editor' this summer. Which is just more work for the same money, I've found. |

During 2004, I probably kept you eating hot dinners. I used to buy it every bloody week. The man at my local shop always used to make fun of me. I had to pretend it was for my mum. I always felt slightly ashamed. |

Right, well, as far as I can guess… (and this is not any real storyline information I hasten to add, just my reading of the situation) Lovely, sensible, chiffony Violet suspects that Jamie's heart isn't in the relationship, and thinks his interests lie elsewhere. She thinks its Sean he's after, but you should look at who else is in the room on those occasions.
And no, it's not a surprise, really. |

"Confusion over sexuality" or not...wouldn't Jamie be completely out of Sean's league?

Reading into that spoiler, I'm guessing Jamie has fallen in love with a pack of pork rinds as they only seem to have scenes in the pub. No?

I briefly thought that Adrian but dismissed it as too disgusting... and yet deep down I hope it's true.

Frankie? (again) maybe it will lead up to Debra Stephenson's departure.

Who was the last person to throw it up Betty? She's often in the same scenes as Violet...
Go on Corrie, break from the mundane.

Ewwww. But it might well be true. And it made me laugh out loud.
Hayley is often on screen when Sean is, that could be sexual experimentation. Pretty grim though.

Worraloadofoldshit. Would Violet really be that unable to cope with being a single mother? And when has Sean ever declared that he wants a baby? |

What is going on with Coronation Street? It can be very good and very bad, usually at the same time! Why on Earth would Jamie fuck Sean? It makes no sense. I would never give the actor that plays Sean a meaty storyline line - I could wade in a pool of his acting talent and emerge totally dry. He's awful.

Awful? But he's won an AWARD!
Actually, I thought he was a bit of an evil bitch this evening when Jamie told him is sordid "secret".

Anthony Cotton is rubbish, but Sean as a character is very believable and mostly well-written. The "Manchester gay" is a sociological phenomenon here in Lancashire that Corrie is wise to include.
That said, he and Jamie...? Ick. It would be like Graham Norton fucking the Scarecrow from the Wizard Of Oz. All you'd need would be for Violet to walk in on them wearing a gingham dress. Gail could even lurk outside with a comedy nose on painting her face green.

I'm going to assume that Sean isn't going to tell Violet about Jamie's confession. What a shit friend he is. Cracks on to her boyfriend and then doesn't tell her that her boyfriend doesn't love her at all. I know it has already been mentioned on this thread but why does no one ever want to stay with Violet? She's lovely!

What has The Lovely Violet done to the scriptwriters to make them hate her so much? Please don't tell me she's a cow in real life because that would shatter my illusions.

I believe that she is a WAG (I think her boyfriend plays for Birmingham City) so maybe in real life she has ideas above her station in the style of Nikki Sanderson.

So it wouldn't just be me that would be dissapointed! I know she's fictional but... she just seems like the type of person it'd be cool to have as a friend. |

In real life though, Violet wouldn't work full time in a pub and be condemned to forever cohabiting with cheating boyfriends and their mothers / anyone else in the street who will take her in.
Even though she didn't do well at school and I can't remember why her family circumstances are so dire, I'm sure she'd manage to get a job in a call centre or find some secretarial work and she'd probably be flat sharing with some other bottom rung young professionals.
But then she wouldn't be in Coronation Street at all and that would be bad. Now I'm all confused.

My memory is a little hazy, but when Violet first arrived didn't she say she'd fallen out with her family because they disapproved of her relationship with an older bloke - and that the older bloke had treated her badly which was why she put off sleeping with Jason? I thought the writers were building up to a big storyline, but then it's never really been mentioned again.

Also I remember "Coronation's streets first aids story" being discussed as the reason she was putting off sleeping with him. It got quite a lot of press briefly but then nothing ever came of it.
Can she be the next We Love person on the front page Mr Lowculture? I know she hasn't got a tongue that could cut through flesh like a Sadie King or Chrissie Watts but she's adorable.

If I can ever be arsed to change it, which on recent form will be in about three months. |
