Coronation Street - Why Is Steve Getting The Blame?

[dave50]

Why is Steve getting the blame for the bus crash? Everyone on the bus saw the two cars racing each other and cutting in front of the bus. He had to swerve to avoid them. Again ridiculous story line by the script writers.

Barsel, I know what NHS clinics look like and that's not it.

Because most soap stories bear no relationship to reality.

You don't have to go to NHS clinics since therapy services have been recommissioned. It's now contracted out to AQP (any qualified provider).

True danny! :)

I find EE does that andres, takes forever to finalise a plot line, Corrie doesn't spread it out as long imo.

its because he seemed to chase the car and shout abuse - seeming to want to challenge them - he showed road rage

then he also walked off - i get why, he couldnt help it - but if he'd been the only one conscious they would have all died.

and also people always want to blame someone

[joko]

i think its also a way to show symptoms of depression and breakdown etc - that theres more to depression that just feeling down - rather than steve just pulling a grumpy face all the time

BTW, my surgery does Osama day appointments so they are possible.

needs of the script

It gives Steve adequate opportunity to do the bulging eyes bit and ask:

what are you on about ?

// BTW, my surgery does Osama day appointments so they are possible. //

what is an Osama day apt ?

where you ring up and say with a foreign accent

" You see me today or I kill you dead ! "

The problems of failing vision.....

I think they were shocked by his behaviour after the crash, that he didn't help any of them.
