I can remember being 9 year old watching this with my mum & I think it always stayed with me to be cautious on the internet using chat rooms as a teenager. Just shows how much of an impact this story had on parents & kids at the time
It was also still a fairly new thing back then. These days you'd hope kids were tech smart enough to know about this sort of thing but you still hear stories of it happening far too often even today unfortunately.
If he had been, in reality, 19, his parents would have been more likely to think that, at 14, she was too young for him, rather than "not good enough".
“you see what you’ve done? you’ve made me do that” is not talked about enough and how that is an abusive sentence used by abusers. Take note, ms Swift.
I know this storyline is the scariest thing in the world but I've got to say it Samuel Kane who played Gary (if that was his real name) is an amazing actor
Jesus, his smile at 10.04, sinisterly gleeful from the revelation she's even younger than he thought. Fair dos to the actor, that was convincingly creepy.
@@user-ub6gh9km4d Because it *Turnzzz Him On* 😜 And it's Like Role-playing For Real This Many Couples Do This Role-playing Of This Type So I Bet He Was Really Excited 😉 Trust Me!!!
Remember watching this with my mum & dad at the time... I was exact same age as her! Found it absolutely terrifying, I now have a 16 yr old boy & 11 yr old daughter. Now I'm at the other end of the absolute fear over things like this. This should be shown in schools to show just how easy it done by these monsters!!
Just watched this and omg, that was so powerful.. I never thought when I began watching it I would finish up in floods of tears... I reflected back to when this could have easily been me... I can't recall how old I was but I was driving then and following a long distance relationship on MSN with a guy called 'Sam', who'd I'd been chatting to for months... I drive down to Hastings to visit him.... He had a girlfriend (which I didn't know) and thankfully nothing happened but it could have so easily been different... He blocked me and we never spoke again... It was so weird, it was like I never existed to him.... I'm now a mother of a daughter and I do hope this episode gets shown in primary schools (year 6) as part of online safety.... We need to protect our children and safeguard them from the evident dangers of chat rooms / snap chat and other social media. I'm going to raise this with the safeguarding lead at the school and hopefully get this on the curriculum
I do it was actually the storyline that made me love the show and I've always been confused about why Sarah never told Bethany about her ordeal with Gary when she was abused by Nathan and his pedophile ring
A predatory trafficker named Nathan groomed her and then used her as well as other girls to sell to predatory men when she was underage. Luckily he went to jail as did his copper friend who also took advantage of girls. But Bethany had been SA/d many times before then :( @@ANM21985
Just watched this for the first time, on ITV Hub, just superb. Especially the ending of the episode when it had the Massive Attack song in the background. Outstanding. Wonder if it did win a Soap Award back then, if there was such a thing.
I have never watched Corrie in my life, one TikTok clip and I’ve watched the whole episode! Incredibly well written. I’m a Hollyoaks fan but they don’t write episodes like they used to either.
when this episode aired she was 17, almost 18. she did look young for her age though, very convincing. Not like a lot of these american teen dramas where they get 26 year olds (who look 26) playing 17/18 year olds. The Vampire Diaries comes to mind..
@RaniaIsAwesome Yes, she was above the age of consent In real life. In the show though I don't think "gary" could actually technically be charged with online grooming because she told him she was 16 and 16 is the age of consent. It only became an offence when she was in his home and she told him she was 14 and he still persisted and held her against her will.
"Does she know you like I do?" And them not caring about your age after you've just told them are huge red flags which are signs that you should run for the hills. Dont believe a word they say, as far as you know they are dangerous and you must absolutely not take anything as true.
I can vouch for the fact that Sam Kane's performance here is EXTREMELY accurate. I have experienced predatory, grooming behaviour first hand and they do speak in that jovial, pally way, trying to make out they're the only one who truly understands you and you them but could turn so easily. The bit where he got a kick out of picking her up and wanted to carry her around his house like a doll made my stomach churn!
The character who plays the weirdo in this was a main character in Brookside, in that he plays a nice guy who works as a hairdresser and dates Jimmy Corkhill's daughter. Funny seeing him play a part like this.
Videos like this need to be watched by the younger generation online grooming is a real thing and these nasty vile excuses of life do exist. Always check your childs devices no matter how old they are.
this was when the internet was in its infancy so we all thought it was safe and no one was lying… terifying and sickening to think of now remembering how many more grown men were child predos… and the ones I dated online saying I am 18 (I was 10 but knew how to talk older)… and the ones that knew I was a kid but didn’t mind and I felt grownup… I got two little girls now and I don’t even want to… but they’ll be well educated on this by the time they are old enough to be online
Children shouldn't have devices. They are not only at risk of paedophiles getting access to them, but it's ruining them and dumbing them down. It's affecting their ability to communicate, it's affecting their development, their social skills, (emotional) intelligence, their ability to problem solve, their ability to recognise risks. It is affecting them in evety way because parents don't interact with them and don't let them play outside with other children and just give them electonic devices.
@@BM-qw8hy The problem is the world isn't safe enough for kids to roam the streets and just be kids anymore and it's just sad. The government and law need to do more to keep the younger generation safe online and offline.
@@UltimatelyEverything This is not true. Children are in more danger from strangers by staying inside their homes playing on X Box and using their mobile phones than they are playing outside. Paedophiles have more access to them via mobile phones and X Box. My gf who is a teacher has come across a lot more of this. She's been teaching primary school children for over 20 years and has witnessed how bad it's got since parents started buying their children mobile phones. She found 10 year olds watching porn from a paedo who sent them a link via X Box and told them to click on it. This is just one incident of many more she has talked about. Kids are safer playing outside than being inside on their mobile phones and X Box. Parental control doesn't stop paedophiles getting access to children. They can still get access to children. On top of that it is affecting their development in every way possible. It's toxic. Children should be outside playing with other children and going on adventures. It develops their problem solving abilities with the activities they get involved with, risk taking learns them how to recognise risks and learning from mistakes and learning how to sense danger. It develops their ability to communicate, it develops skills in building things and fixing things when playing out in nature making building dens in trees, making bow and arrows from branches etc. It develops their practical skills. They learn the ability to work things out in different situations. These skills are important for their development. I dread to think what type of adults they are going to become. It is very worrying as these are the ones that are going to be looking afer us when we get older. Life is about taking risks. We take risks everyday of our lives as soon as we walk out of the front door into the outside world. If we don't take risks we don't have a life. They are going to grow up fearing the outside world and too scared to take risks. They won't learn from mistakes. They won't have the ability to communicate properly, Won't understand emotions. They will be underdeveloped in so many ways. They will be in more danger of the outsude world as a result of this. You setting them up for disaster. The impact it will have on them by keeping them inside with their heads buried in their devices will have devastating effects on them and society. We are seeing the results now in schools. Parents are so ignorant to it and too dumbed down themselves to even recognise it. It's disturbing to say the least.
Probably because this storyline is more scary than a some deranged killer running around with a chainsaw or whatever. With horror films you more or less know who the bad guy is, but with something like this, the bad guy looks like a nice normal guy and he can use his charms to fool,people. Also this is something that can actually happen in real life a groomer is scarier than a killer wielding a machete or a ghost haunting your house
HOW DARE HE DO THAT TO HER!!! I applaud everyone involved in rescuing her from such a horrible situation. It just shows how easy it happens to anyone who is a victim: Well done to all the team for highlighting the dangers of internet chat rooms.
That line ‘I don’t want to hurt his feelings’ I’m glad they put that in I listen to a lot of real life stories of all types, but in the dating stories even when they have been catfished or they change the meeting place to somewhere more remote it’s surprising how many people stay because they don’t want to let the person down or hurt their feelings even when there have been huge red flags 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 and they completely ignore their gut instincts 🤷♀️🤷♀️ That’s an important lesson that should be taught to everyone as children you can still be kind and compassionate but red flags is something they need to learn about and to leave immediately in any situation if you feel something is off and forget about whether it is hurting someone else’s feelings as it could save your life! or at the very least stop you from getting hurt
31:55 I read this at the exact part where he says "😂 I've saved everything you know, every conversation we've had. Every email." He's a few sandwiches short of a picnic. This will be a very easy mountain of evidence for the prosecution 🤣 They should show this exact episode in schools as a PSA. It's very well acted.
Some may remember him previously from Brookside as a larger-than-life comic character. It's a bit like when Robin Williams or Dawn French occasionally played psychopaths... something extra creepy about it.
Yes, I agree they need to start producing better storylines or do a Brookside and pull the plug.There are so many episodes so even if they pulled the plug but then re ran it there would be more than 10,000 episodes to watch.
a few years/half a decade maybe, degrassi did an episode like this too and probably other shows did too, and to catch a predator was from 2006… because adults realised the internet is not just good, if there is all that good, what about the bad…
i dont have many friends to get outside as much so online dating is my only option really :( , also i have social anxiety its easier to meet someone online. though i do think meeting someone irl is a much better experience
that’s fine but just be careful and keep your privacy with strangers or at least people you haven’t known for long enough (at least a year or a couple of years) but even then it depends
I've been groomed like this numerous times as a young girl... I was unsure why I was being treated the way I was by dirty old men, even my 'friends' creepy dad's used to groom me mainly with flirting, illegal substances and alcohol. I didn't know why I was being treated the way I was and knowing what they were doing but felt helpless to understand why and read the signs enough to get myself out of these situations, so I used to just give them what I felt they were looking for because I felt helpless to know what else to do... I then later in life realised was/am autistic...
I was the victim of it by my own father and a baby sitter. Luckily, the baby sitter didnt progress more than pining me to the floor and kissing me (i was 8) He was about 15/16. I never told my mum as she thought the world of him and i didnt know it wasnt normal at that age. I told her years later and she was horrified. "WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME!?" I didnt have the words. Needless to say she was distraught when she found out my father had been doing it for a few years. The baby sitter was doing it at the same time as my dad. I told a family friend what my dad was doing and she told my mum. She had to. I starting realising it wasnt normal when id stay at a friend's house and their dads werent doing it to them. My mum always said to me that abusers usually always know when you've been a victim and they home in on it.
I'm on the spectrum myself. The most important thing you must do is absolutely never blame yourself. You were taken advantage of by bad people who should have sought help themselves or been locked away for what they did. You only did what you felt you had to do to survive and whilst that can never make up for what you've been through, now you're grown up and can help protect others who are in the same situation you were. I know it's not much but you're a survivor.
The camera work at 2.35 is effectively creepy. He partially disappears from view, whilst she bends over, so you can only imagine the perverted way he was probably looking her up and down from behind. The symbolism of her taking her shoes off is also disturbing, as it seems to emphasise her vulnerability, perhaps even hinting at her later inability to run away from danger. It also reduces her height, making her even more vulnerable and young looking.

@@lukestirrup4133 the character still has been through a lot, what’s your point??

Its not real yeno 🤦♂️
Then Martin started boffing a 17 year old 😂
14
So every generation in her family went through some kind of sexual abuse
Some may remember him previously from Brookside as a larger-than-life comic character. It's a bit like when Robin Williams or Dawn French occasionally played psychopaths... something extra creepy about it.
Sarah Louise ends up counselling a kiddie fiddler😂
I watched this episode as a 13 year old and it's always stuck with me.
when Coronation street was good
Yes, I agree they need to start producing better storylines or do a Brookside and pull the plug.There are so many episodes so even if they pulled the plug but then re ran it there would be more than 10,000 episodes to watch.
Wow what a throw bk this was brilliant 👏
They should bring back Candice
They should but they can’t, she has a contract with hollyoaks to play Maxine on their sadly
@@dollsvx WAIT that’s her? OMG i didn’t realise
@@morgan46339 yea haha!
@@morgan46339 she changed her accent..
Oh yeah candice Stowe 😅 what a character
Corrie was a head of it's time with the storyline ❤❤
a few years/half a decade maybe, degrassi did an episode like this too and probably other shows did too, and to catch a predator was from 2006… because adults realised the internet is not just good, if there is all that good, what about the bad…
Hell would raise up on Earth if this ever happened to my daughter. I would take matters into my own hands as the Police wouldn't do anything!
Maybe if the make Corrie this way again I’d go back watching
All woke crap now on everything the oldies are the goldies
They need to have more storylines like this nowadays !
Scary how this fake chatroom profile storyline is as revelent now as it was 20 decades ago :(
Was literally just thinking of this episode yesterday & it just popped up on me feed 😂
Lol😅
I’ve watched Sam in Brookside, Emmerdale and Corrie alongside his gorgeous wife Linda Lusardi! ❤️
28:02 Legitimately made me lol
It's always the stairs in soaps they are dangerous

And this is why you shouldn’t go online dating.
Or just be very careful when online dating.
i dont have many friends to get outside as much so online dating is my only option really :( , also i have social anxiety its easier to meet someone online. though i do think meeting someone irl is a much better experience
that’s fine but just be careful and keep your privacy with strangers or at least people you haven’t known for long enough (at least a year or a couple of years) but even then it depends
Well it's just as bad in real life. You can't win.
Watching this again I cried like a baby at the end .😭😭
Ooh nice
Well all the great writers need to be reenployed
Wasn't expecting to hear the House theme tune in this episode lol
This was so interesting omg
Sam Kane was literally divine
Police were really on the ball at the end there weren't they?
This was excellent.
What are great episode to raise the issue fair play to Coronation Street ❤️
Her stepdad Martin started having sex with a school girl not long after
Crazy when this story line happened I was only 3 months old
E.T. in an anthea turner wig 😂😂
I was scrolling the comments for this one 🤣
@@ArielASMR lol it was a favourite dig of a local tv presenter where im from, it was a belter lol 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
We need more interesting good episodes like this from corrie
God I always hated Candice🤬🤬😠🤬😡🤬😡🤬
I remember this. Pretty much teaching us on the dangers. All it did was cause more 😂
I've been groomed like this numerous times as a young girl... I was unsure why I was being treated the way I was by dirty old men, even my 'friends' creepy dad's used to groom me mainly with flirting, illegal substances and alcohol. I didn't know why I was being treated the way I was and knowing what they were doing but felt helpless to understand why and read the signs enough to get myself out of these situations, so I used to just give them what I felt they were looking for because I felt helpless to know what else to do... I then later in life realised was/am autistic...
Oh my goodness me too and I'm autistic as well 😢
Where were your parents? And you being autistic puts no blame on you, this happens to people who arent autistic all the time
I was the victim of it by my own father and a baby sitter. Luckily, the baby sitter didnt progress more than pining me to the floor and kissing me (i was 8) He was about 15/16. I never told my mum as she thought the world of him and i didnt know it wasnt normal at that age. I told her years later and she was horrified. "WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME!?" I didnt have the words. Needless to say she was distraught when she found out my father had been doing it for a few years. The baby sitter was doing it at the same time as my dad. I told a family friend what my dad was doing and she told my mum. She had to. I starting realising it wasnt normal when id stay at a friend's house and their dads werent doing it to them. My mum always said to me that abusers usually always know when you've been a victim and they home in on it.
I'm on the spectrum myself. The most important thing you must do is absolutely never blame yourself. You were taken advantage of by bad people who should have sought help themselves or been locked away for what they did. You only did what you felt you had to do to survive and whilst that can never make up for what you've been through, now you're grown up and can help protect others who are in the same situation you were.
I know it's not much but you're a survivor.
What has being autistic got to do with it? Where is the relevance? There is no need to even mention it
The crazy thing about her being Groomed is her daughter was also groomed aswell by Nathan...
It’s always the stairs 😂
Good old Dennis Stringer!
Ur a legend m8
45 minutes is not an "episode", it's more than one
The Beans on Toast looks delicious, Gary knows how to Treat a lady.
In reality Sam Kane is so lovely 😊
The camera work at 2.35 is effectively creepy. He partially disappears from view, whilst she bends over, so you can only imagine the perverted way he was probably looking her up and down from behind. The symbolism of her taking her shoes off is also disturbing, as it seems to emphasise her vulnerability, perhaps even hinting at her later inability to run away from danger. It also reduces her height, making her even more vulnerable and young looking.

Candice and Todd where useless in this if I was there I'd have been through that door. Great acting tho. 🙏👍
Fuck me that was good. I was holding my breathe!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
