PETER BARLOW BIDS FAREWELL TO CORONATION STREET

-
During tonight's Boxing Day episode (26th December) of Coronation Street, viewers saw Peter and Carla Barlow is a very special episode which led to Peter leaving Weatherfield.

This special episode featured fan favourites Peter and Carla Barlow as they hit a rough patch in their marriage leading to some home truths being revealed.

After everything the couple have been through recently you could see the strain in Carla's eyes and the way that Alison King delivered the dialogue with such emotion that she had Peter's best interests at heart.

The scenes in the flat were rather emotional and you could see how much all Carla wanted was/ is the best for her husband even if it is hurting them both but I personally feel like Carla has a point. The love between the characters is and always will be there despite what happens next for them!

Alison King and Chris Gascoyne deliver the best emotional scenes whilst nailing emotions that go with it first time - these kind of actors are special.

The Barlows are one of my favourite families and the way they support each other through everything is brilliant and this was shown fantastically tonight. The goodbye scene on the cobbles was an emotional one and one that made me realise what a tight family the Barlows are - Ken's words I'm emotional.

Alison King and Chris Gascoyne are one of the best partnerships, Coronation Street has ever had and it broke my heart the way Peter left on a tram which was the perfect way as it's a nod to where the show is set in Manchester.

Thank you to Jan McVerry for the brilliant writing tonight and Gill Wilkinson for the brilliant capturing of camera angles.

This episode of Coronation Street aired on Boxing Day (26th December) at 7.30pm on ITV1 and is available to watch on ITVX.

SINGLE REVIEW - ELERI - KARAOKE

-
This Friday (11th August)  will see  Swansea based artist singer-songwriter, Eleri  release her latest single, Karaoke. Karaoke was co written with Vanessa Murray and Katie Buckland, and produced by Tim Prottey/Jones of First Time Flyers. Karaoke  has an upbeat instrumental setting the tone beautifully. The first verses sees Eleri's soft vocal at the forefront with lyrics that get you thinking of those moments at a gig that you don't think you'll ever get to see takes me back to experiencing Priscilla Block with Eleri last year, oh the memories. The second verse sees the song take another turn of when you feel like things aren't working out but you are determined to learn from the lesson it's given you. The chorus features many catchy upbeat lyrics that I could myself singing along with despite not knowing the lyrics 100% typical Kellie. There is so much passion within the lyrics and the more you hear the lyrics the more appreciation I gain. Love the summer of '

-
With Amelia Spencer about to christen her daughter, Esther it wouldn't be a soap without drama during the ceremony would it? It’s the day of Amelia Spencer’s daughter, Esther’s christening who is touched by her boyfriend, Noah Dingle’s support who has been there for her during her pregnancy and now adjusting to her journey into motherhood. It’s lovely to see how much he genuinely cares and wants the best for them both. Following Lydia Dingles help in organising the christening, she is disappointed when Samson Dingle refuses to accompany her to his daughter’s christening. Chloe Harris and Amy Wyatt are confrontational around cousins Chas and Charity. However, when Amy and Chloe arrive at Esther’s christening following Chas’ invite, Charity is less than impressed. Things escalated as Charles Anderson’s begins the christening as Charity’s feud with Amy threatens to put the service in jeopardy - part of me is like yay for the drama, but the other is like why are you doing this ,Charit

EMMERDALE REVIEW - DAN SHOWED HIS VULNERABILITY

Over the past few weeks, Emmerdale viewers have seen a different side of Dan Spencer following his daughter, Amelia's social media ordeal which has allowed for a different side of the character's development to be shown. It's obvious to me and many other viewers that all Dan Spencer has ever wanted to do was protect Amelia, but the way he said some harsh things to her in Tuesday's episode (11th July) saw the vulnerability in both characters. It was during Wednesday's episode (12th July) where Dan said "you have every right to be online" was a moment I caught myself a little emotional over as it reminded me of my own experience once again - it's clear how much Dan cares about his daughter and just wants what's best for her like parents do. The way that parents want their children to hear the truth, sometimes isn't the best way to do but on the other side sometimes it just needs to be said. There was many times during this week that I felt for Am
