Coronation St Racism Row

[whurules]

it seems really ironic that Lloyd takes offence at one off the cuff remark that paul says didn't men anything and Lloyd actually calls his switchboard operator fat Brenda not even once but every time he talks about her surely that's worse , just a thought

I totally agree with you, my son is bald buts its Ok for people to call him baldy and pat his head.
I have been told its because bad & fat people are not in a minority group!!

[netibiza]

...and he and Steve put on German voices to mock Eileen after she had been to therapy! That was also offensive.

Yes the whole racism storyline is ridiculous, just put in to get Paul out of the soap. Very weak storyline and not at all popular with viewers it seems.

[Jeza]

I didn't know Paul was leaving, is Eileen too? I hope not Eileen is a good character.

[baza]

perhaps racism only works one way in soaps. Just a thought.

[Jemisa]

Yes I thought the same, how is it he can get away calling her 'Fat Brenda?'

Have we ever seen This Brenda? I don't remember her...

[Smowball]

The way all the street is against him is stupid and totally unrealistic.
