Is it just me or is the actor who plays Roger not in Corrie a little while ago as Liz McDonald's lover that she worked for in the bar in Blackpool was it? And she had an affair with him and Steve found out n Jim went mad and broke out? Does anyone know if Im right or not? Or Im on the wrong track?  |

I vaguely remember the storyline Jade - didn't Liz and Bet Gilroy hide Jim in a caravan, then they hijacked a boat and tried to sail it to Ireland but he got caught anyway because they rescued a kid? Or am I getting mixed up with another Bet Gilroy caravan/Blackpool/Run For Your Wife caper-style holiday storyline?

He was also a violent husband to Jan in Holby City.

They're reusing people far too much. Are they that short of actors who want to appear? The one after Michelle was Sunita's brother.

I remember him in Corrie too - that was 2003. I dont mind when they reuse people for different parts - at the end of the day they are just actors bringing the character to life.

Not so soon though. It's like bringing back Johnny Briggs or John Savident in 6 months as someone else.

Hardly the same thing - they were well known and long running regular cast members. You can get away with it with guest/short term cast.

Clearly with people remembering them from their previous appearances they can't get away with it.

Roger and Janice were great tonight, he could have been a welcome addition it's a shame that he's going to France. Maybe they'll be back in 3 months, fingers crossed.

I wonder what this means for Janice? Will she go and then return in 6 months or go for good? I didnt know she was leaving.

It hasn't been said. I know Steve Frost told them to make her the way she used to be or she would be gone for good but I don't know what he's decided since.

Patsy I hate to correct you Patsy..but the fella who played Sunita's brother was Ashen Bhatti who played one of the doctors in cardiac arrest..the fella playing Sonny was in the Bill awhile ago playing one of the detectives in CID |

Sonny has been in a few things, Casualty a few years ago I think.

Oh was it? I read it was her brother. They got it wrong then. Thanks for clearing that up, Nick.  So has there been any jokes about unblocking Janice pipes then? Patsy |

Vicki Entwistle has a fitness DVD out at the moment featuring 'before and after' shots of herself on the cover - the contrast is amazing! She's really done well - but I dunno if the DVD will shift many copies, as she's hardly glam, is she? Who wants to identify with Janice Battersby?

My dad pointed it out to me when were were in Woolworths last week while visiting the sales. I didnt recognise her on the cover! |
