Gail was actually a good, serious, matriarchal character once upon a time. Now she's written as a stupid, annoying, airhead. The writers have completely ruined her character
@startracker5895 I do agree, however to play devil's advocate I'd happily act like a moron on TV (which wouldn't be that difficult when it comes naturally) for the wages she'll be getting
I must admit it can be hard to feel sorry for Gail as she constantly controls and nags people . Rebecca and Martin did suit each other better . But yes Martin did do wrong here
I can't believe Martin. Even after he found out his stepdaughter was pregnant, he STILL continued to see Rebecca. How selfish can he get? No wonder Rebecca left him after Bethany was born.
If Martin didn't have an affair then maybe he wouldn't have indirectly served Gail and her children and grandchild to Richard Hillman on a silver platter.
This was always going to happen. Martin was way too young for Gail in the first place. He didn’t sow is wild oats as a young man as he was tied to Gail and the kids from a very young age.
Coronation Street has been on TV since 1960. So there are many characters who are talked about and who sometimes come back on the show. Many episodes are on RUclips. There are probably websites with character summaries online? In this case, Gail had a husband in the 1970s which was a storyline for many years. Then she met Martin (in this scene). I can't remember how they met but the fact he's a fair bit younger than her was part of the storyline.
Alison’s funeral. The one who was married to Kevin Webster who lost their baby boy after giving birth. She was so grief stricken that she took Sarah Lou’s baby away and gave back the baby. But ran into a lorry/truck and died.
How do you think anyone feels, man or woman when they discover that the person that they have lived with, been married too for years possibly that their partner has been screwing someone else behind their back. I think her performance is exactly how anyone would react to that knowledge.

The actress is as much to blame. She should refuse to play Gail so stupidly.

I think Deirdre would have ended up the same way if she were still around now. So sad what's happened to 2010-20s Corrie.
@@kaysmith8992 I completely agree. Corrie has been dead for years. Shit writing and employing pointless diversity hires who can't act
@@kaysmith8992 absolutely correct
Poor Gail, Martin was so cold here…
Yeh I can remember her crying over Brian too !!!

Absolutely right about gail once being a sensible matriarch so a silly airhead she became thanks to the so called writer's 😮
Martin was always a bit weird and intense
He's got a real NERVE. wOW.... LOL Is he totally daft? He blames Gail for his breakup in his affair. That's rich!
I love Gail , but Martin is a completely different matter lol
I hated him through the whole show. He got with a teenager and people think that's okay :/
Original air date: 14/06/2000.
ITV3 air date: 22/03/2022.
No one asked
Thank you for the info. I am glad to learn this
@@chloe-in9xtsome people did and want to know
@@chloe-in9xt Speak for yourself!
I went right off Martin after the Katy Harris business ‼️
That was a horrible storyline 😔
I agree. He's a kiddy fiddler
@@arthurmorgan8529 She was over the age of consent, get over it.
@@H.K.5 hard drive check required
@@H.K.5dude she was 16 and he was 36. You think that’s okay you need to be investigated
Martin wanted a woman that looks a little less like E.T.
Hilarious.....
Rebecca was stunning though
I knew she looked like something but I could never figure out what 😂
Gail looked like Martins Mother tbh
Please it is a classic episode
I can't believe Martin. Even after he found out his stepdaughter was pregnant, he STILL continued to see Rebecca. How selfish can he get? No wonder Rebecca left him after Bethany was born.
date of episode would help

But he chose to marry her, she didn't make him. He was wrong
@@AS-wj1duHey i’m also here at the same time, yeah i agree with you
Off-topic though, David was perfectly cast as their son when you see young Martin and Gail together.
@@AS-wj1du I agree it’s Martins fault but Gail should have been wary of marrying a much younger man.
How did he left the show? I just got into the show in 2020?
Meaning found classic episodes cause I was getting tired of us soaps

I’m named Rebecca why did a character named Rebecca
Can't stand Gail Platt........ so many funny Memes of Gail, imagine being married to Gail
No thank you 😂
Gail should have stuck with Brian.
Who died ?
Alison’s funeral. The one who was married to Kevin Webster who lost their baby boy after giving birth. She was so grief stricken that she took Sarah Lou’s baby away and gave back the baby. But ran into a lorry/truck and died.
I’m sorry but the way Gail speaks and acts is insufferable

Shes a good actress thicko
@@David-n1z5o Thicko ? You're brave.

Throw eggs at him, his windoes, his car, and his door for us, please. He is a cheating b!!!
