Haha! Love it Bridgeit perhaps best I stick to my book then (although to be honest it’s a bit boring which is why I’m on here!).

I thought there was a watershed for a reason. Far too graphic for earlier in the evening.

I don’t watch any soaps (only because I love reading so much) but isn’t this violence a bit much before the 9pm watershed - or doesn’t that count any more?

I don't think you can connect it with the horrific teenage stabbings happening at the moment.

She stabbed him. The one with the knife got stabbed himself.

Will have to wait and see how they handle it from now on.

Love it Bridgeit might a suggest a drop more water with it in future?

Sorry I really wasn’t being mean! You truly made me giggle having 3 attempts. ???

Ohhps even worse she may have stabbed him, either way it’s too early for this sort of violence.

I Don’t watch it often , but just turned on only to see the graphc stabbing of the character Shona by her on screen son on Coronation Street, mainstream T.V between 7.30 & 8 pm.
I do wonder if T.V imatates reality as programme makers say it does OR does it normalise & promote it?
Personally I think it’s wrong, lots of youngish children are still up at this time , & I’m sure that a lot of parents would not have been expecting this level of violence so early in the evening.?Goal posts are being moved Imo!
