I couldn’t believe my ears when Peter started laying in to Carla like that. “I’m losing the one good thing in my life,” was one of the least shout-ey but most hurtful things he said. “What do you want? Have you forgotten one of your designer frocks?” he spat when she went back to try […]
Another tough week for Carla lovers. We only got to see her on Friday, but was that even our Carla? She was dressed in a girly bat-winged blouse that would have done Hyacinch Bouquet proud. Let’s get this straight: Carla Connor would look stunning in a bin bag (especially because bin bags are black), but […]
Not much Carla again this week. It’s hard – and is going to get so much harder when she goes. Four months? Hardly bears thinking about, does it? Anyway, we saw the first real signs of the cracks appearing this week, as from their very first scene Peter was moaning about Nick spending time with […]
It was quite a Carla-lite week again this week, but her in that dress made up for it. It had felt so wrong to me having read last week that she was going to ask Peter to have a baby together. Thank goodness it was the other way round in the end, and unless she […]
Where’s it going to end? She still looks like our Carla (albeit that she’s stopped dressing completely in black the whole time, which does look rather good on her), but she’s not behaving like our Carla. The nearest we got to seeing a flash of the woman we know and love (and a couple of flashes […]
Big news. I saw this: PETER TAKES SIX MONTH BREAK on the Coronation Street Blog (via one of their tweets) on Friday night, and it’s certainly cheered me up after a week where we #Carchelle lovers have been rocked to read that apparently Carla’s going to suggest that she and Peter try for a baby. Can […]
I know Alison King’s not on Twitter, but I wonder if she knows just how much of a female following she’s got? Well, we got quite a lot of Mrs C this week, didn’t we girls (including a lovely shot of the Connor derriere), but it wasn’t all good. Was anyone else concerned and upset […]
Some happy women about the place this week, as we got to see Carla on both Monday and Friday (yay!), and we got a good look at Carla’s legs too (you can follow @MrsConnorsLegs on Twitter)! As discussed in Corrie Corner, Peter’s not only behaving like a five-year-old having a strop, but is on his […]
STOP PRESS 21/5: PETER LEAVES CARLA FOR LEANNE? CLICK HERE It’s sod’s law that I hit on the idea of Carla Corner JUST as she disappeared from our screens, and we’ve had another Carla-less week this week. It’s hard to cope without our heroine, so hopefully Carla Corner will help keep us going until she […]
As Carla seems to be Soap’s most popular character (and adored by more women than men, it would seem), it suddenly struck me last week that what could possibly be better than for her to have her own Soapy Corner? I’d mentioned a couple of weeks ago that as Carla’s been in almost every episode of […]
