Coronation Street is fast going the same way, older characters often just say a few words, it's all about the kids, and people turning gay, and trans and making sure you portray black characters in a positive light, make sure the female characters are stronger than the males, , and like Eastenders, it's all about tackling 'issues' not every day life, which just makes it one big yawn fest.
Coronation Street has always been about making working-class women stronger than ever, even if those women were seen as 'low class' by others in the community. Elsie Tanner for example, or Bet Lynch, or Hilda Ogden. And the original creator of the Street, Tony Warren was very, very gay and quite open about it during the 60s when the rest of society... wasn't so open. As for trans... well do you remember Roy and Hayley from nearly twenty years ago?
@@rob338 Oh I know that, and I can well understand how refreshing it was to see that 30, 40, 50 60 years ago, but I think the 'strong women' thing has had it's day, it'd be refreshing now to see some 'strong men' on screen for a change, let some men take the lead, have the last word, have some balls.
The classic episodes of Coronation Street' Eastenders and Emmerdale Farm were much more realistic and true to life and reflected real world problems but they are now all sensationalist garbage
Totally agree with you. I love Old Corrie and Eastenders. The characters of old Jack & -Vera , Bet Lynch, Alex Gilroy.

Nick Cotton, a great character in an otherwise woeful soap with great quotes such as "give us a fag ma" and "Where's your purse you old bag" and "give us a score I've run out of beer"
It was humorous because so many people believed it was really him being the bad guy, so refreshing to see what a charming charismatic chap he really is
Some 30 years ago, I was walking away from my car on Richmond Green. A guy had just parked and got out of his car. I told him he had left his lights on. The chap was so pleasant and thanked me profusely. I was taken back to find it was "Nasty Nick". This changed my view of him. What a nice guy!

That’s real life though. Shy away from it if you want but why watch a soap if you want it to be completely sanitised of anything that makes you feel emotions?
I definitely agree that June Brown should be a Dame, she was just so wonderful in Eastenders, the episode with just Dot and Ethel talking about the war was just so wonderful. So good they did a whole episode with just them.
Too right, but it gets even worse ! It seems because I won't have a vaccine, any vaccine these days, my repeat prescription means I have to commute between the chemist and the doctors every month because they "misplace" my prescription, therefore I miss days of the daily dose of drugs they insist I take on a daily basis ! ! ! Now I thought missing doses frequently nullifies the effect and efficiency of the drugs that they are for so my body is going through a monthly body shock , great for the immune system !
True; every episode will start with a sinister black man and a poor white victim. Then the plot twists comes and the real victim is the black man and the white victim is manipulating the situation for his own sinister gain. Come the end of the episode the viewer is left slapping their own head and checking their unconscious racism.
He`s a good lad is John i went to Butlins for a 70s rock weekend and he was playing with his band who themselves were the band of Gary Holt the fellow from Auf Wiedersehn
It shows how good an actor you are when people can't distinguish you as a totally different person in real life. In the show he was a evil git, in reality a true gentleman.

Well done, Dan! Great, enjoyable, interview, with,
John Altman, who is
a very, interesting character.
No ego at all, a down
to earth, jobbing, actor.
Might just read his autobiography.
Feel for John here, so many leading questions from the awful Dan here. Embarrassing.
John looked uncomfortable and was clearly only there to push his record for Christmas.
@@lazylaurablue Agree with that.
People casting parts saying they don't want soap actors is snobbery, but having said that Russell crowe started in neighbours, so it worked for him.
I didn't know that!!
@@muhammadimhardbrucelee7891 Yeah, it was his first acting job.
@MadManRob1 Exactly them aswell, so it does work for some hey, unless of course the way that things are going today, maybe that's where the snobbery is.
if anything you have give the show more interest turn off the BBC
“I can’t stand people who go ‘round putting parking tickets on cars and stuff like that.”
John ‘Nasty Nick’ Altman, expressing his “wild side” on GB News.
At least he wants to make it easier to claim benefits.
Fair play to him. 👏🏻
He must be down on his luck. 😕
If he’s appearing on this trash.
Very creepy times!
Lovely to hear your thoughts John.
Really scraping the barrel now….the smell of desperation ! Carol decker obviously wasn’t available 😂😂
Eastenders is still a great show
The show still needs Nick Cotton
Mistake to write him out
So they invented a new brother
