I've been watching Corrie and Emmerdale since I was five. Corrie and Emmerdale used to work so well together - you'd have the drama of the Dales then you'd have the relaxation of Corrie (with less drama). Now it's almost like they're competing with each other - what is the point? They are both managed by ITV. What's with October week? That's EMMERDALE's anniversary month. Corrie should save all their things for December.

I agree it's gone downhill - and I don't think it will get any better with MacLeod coming in. Pat Phelan had me stop watching from Michael's death to his death. At this point the show needs someone to swoop in and save it from becoming a disaster
