Throughly agree. Classic Corrie is the best. I think I watch current Corrie out of habit!I've been an avid viewer ever since I was young (in my 40s now) but just recently it's made me switch off. I have it on my Sky Q to automatically record when it's on.
Not had chance to watch the last 3 weeks so had a few episodes to catch up on. Today I've deleted them all. Really can't be arsed watching and judging by the stuff I've read, most people are doing the very same. It's lost it's spark sadly,with silly long-winded storylines.
I get more enjoyment watching the classic episodes on ITV3, which I started viewing when they first started showing them, starting with '84 or' 85 I think it was. I'll stick to those for now.

Taken from Fandom:
Susan left home to work in London in 1981 and by 1985 she was residing in Newcastle. Late that year, she returned to Weatherfield and was charmed by the much older Mike Baldwin, marrying him in 1986. The marriage broke down after just a year when Susan defied Mike by aborting their child in order to concentrate on her career. Mike called Susan a murderer and threw her out.
Unbeknown to Mike, Susan hadn't gone through with the termination and in 1988, now back in Glasgow, she gave birth to Adam. In 2001, Mike found out about Adam and pestered Susan for access to his son. Susan left Glasgow to go into hiding, but while driving through Preston Susan's car was forced off the road by the getaway car from a petrol station robbery carried out by Gareth Brannigan and Billy Mayhew. Adam sustained only minor injuries but Susan was killed instantly.
Susan Barlow
Susan Ida Barlow (previously Baldwin) is the late daughter of Ken and Valerie Barlow, twin sister of Peter, and mother of Adam Barlow through her marriage to Mike Baldwin. Born in 1965, the Barlow twins began their lives in Weatherfield. At five years old, they lost their mother and Ken sent...coronationstreet.fandom.com
Maybe this storyline will end with him going to prison and he’ll come back in a few years with a new head.I think we can all at least agree he is a terrible actor and character! (I feel mean saying it, but it is what it is)
You'd think he would have had the puberty recast like most soap kids get.
Fingers crossedMaybe this storyline will end with him going to prison and he’ll come back in a few years with a new head.
I loved the shout out to Cinderella and Jack losing his shoeGreat humour in the older episodes. Golden years agency. Vera booking a guy and ending up with Jack.
I don’t think they’ve actually said but considering Sebs birthday is said to be in 2001 I assume she’s around the same age so 19/20How old is Alina even meant to be?
Seb is vile although I did laugh at his small wine joke last night. I never thought Tyrone would be a cheater, disappointedI don’t think they’ve actually said but considering Sebs birthday is said to be in 2001 I assume she’s around the same age so 19/20
