  • Yesterday Coronation Street fans (and the nation!) were rocked by the shocking news that Helen Worth would be leaving the cobbles after 50 years in the role of Gail Platt. Gail was always a key character and fans have seen her survive an abduction and six weddings. Gail famously had five husbands (she married Brian twice) so, do you need love in your life to be happy?

      I don't think there is necssarily anything wrong with the likes of William Roache and Barbara Knox, amongst others of their generation in soap-acting, going on in the show as long as they want, if it works for them, as they likely prefer having a continued social connection with the cast and crew and maybe would find it too hard now to leave and dettach themselves from it in their advanced years etc, but I think Helen, and other cast members of around her generation, will likely have been deeply affected by what sadly happened to Annie Kirkbride, who had just begun talking excitiedly about wanting to retire and the things she would do when she left the soap, but was then diagnosed with what turned out to be her final illness, which stole that much deserved retirement from her. In Helen's case I think she'd also have seen the media's huge coverage of Malcolm Hedben's significant ill health, and their probing and speculations about Eileen Derbyshire's health after she didn't return from her one year sabbatical, and given that Helen is a shy and private person she probably would want to leave the soap in a planned and controlled way on a high rather than stay and stay until ill health becomes visibly apparent on screen or forces her departure and either way causes the media to discuss her.

    Gail had one of the most far fetched lives on that street but you just want with it because of how she played it. I remember Helen being really sweet about that Corrie superfan that was murdered in the bombings and thought this is a really kind lady.

    After 50 years of playing that character, it will mentally mess with her for a while, like a part of her has been taken away, its the most unique acting job you can get; soaps and the ones who stay for this long are a dying breed.

    There are three actors in Coronation Street history who are like the holy trinity of the soap across 50 odd years. If you look at the episodes in the colour era that pulled in the really really huge ratings and still get talked about years later as standout episodes and storylines that gripped the nation and got media coverage, the main storyline of those most-watched episodes is either centred around the late great Annie Kirkbride (Ken/Mike love triangle, Weatherfield one etc), Dame Barbara of Knox (Alan Bradley storyline) or Helen Worth (Brian's stabbing, the Hillman storyline etc). Clearly the casting department at Granada in the early 70s, when all three were cast, must have been very very good at talent-spotting, and the storyliners and writers over the years knew who to give their very biggest storylines to.

    • @MrDannyDetail
      @MrDannyDetail 2 месяца назад

      According to IMDB she has 16 roles listed overall, but the last three are all Gail (as a Children In Need corrie sketch, and the movie version of Tram Crash week are separately credited). All of the other 11 roles are from before she was cast as Gail, with the earliest being a 1963 episode of Z Cars and probably the most notable being 6 episodes of Pertwee-era Doctor Who.
