Thankyou Aveline

I saw East is east a looong time ago but I can’t remember him
I ll have to re look

I think he was a cousin who owned/managed a cinema.

I mean this in the nicest possible way, but please, no spoilers 😊. It can ruin the experience of watching if we know things like that in advance of it happening on screen.

I’ve just read that cassie is leaving. So pleased. I’ve never liked her.

He has an extensive 'filmography' as it's called in Wikipedia. I'd have cut and pasted it here but it was too long. I first noticed him in 'Medics'.

He was in East is East, I think. Basically playing the Dev we all know, and (some of us) love😀.

I’ve just looked it up.

‘East Is East’ was 1999.

Has Dev done nothing else, apart from Corrie, in the last 26 years?

Hmm, I wonder why?🤷‍♀️

Dev is quite cute but cannot act for toffee it’s not just bad lines he gets, it’s his desperately poor acting skills, he puts the emphasise of words all in the wrong places. He’s a nice looking guy though and aging well but I want to shake him when he gets the hard and soft bits of words all the wrong way round.
No I ve never seen him in anything else do you mean anyone other than Corrie pays him to get it so wrong 🤣🤣🤣

That photo just makes Dev look more manic than usual, if that’s possible.

😂

It was specially chosen 🤫

Of course he can act. You just don't like his character. Have you seen him in other roles? He's quite different.

Sorry Aveline I am aware he is the love of your life, but he can't act and I can't stand him.

I really don’t think we need yet another baby brought into Corrie.

In the last year or so we’ve had Lauren’s Frankie, Dee Dee’s Laila, and now this baby of Meghan’s.

Plus Daisy, who I think lost a baby, and Fiz who had an abortion.

Too many.

Also Shona's whose name I have forgotten.
It draws the viewers.

Thank you so much! Be still my beating heart.♥️

I'm stung by your comments Doodledog. I don't think he's bad actor. He's just doing what the writers want him too. He's still gorgeous though. I've gone back on him. I forgave him for being mean to Adhi.

Sorry, Aveline. I always feel as though I should put caveats on anything critical of Dev .

Here he is, looking gorgeous - just for you.

Aveline, Your defence of Dev always makes me chuckle.🤣

I think the Bernie character has grown into herself recently. I’m not convinced by the raver side of her that keeps resurfacing, but she’s a lot more three dimensional than she used to be. She’s got so much to deal with. She realises she was an unfit mother, has lost her son, was rejected by Kit and now her lovely SIL has gone, too. She is trying to make up for being hopeless in the past, but needs to look out for herself as well as others, I think. Maybe not by dropping Es and picking up miscellaneous electricians though .

Dev was verging on bullying her. I know he was trying to help, but he was the same with Asha. He is so sure he’s right and just browbeats people into submission. He’s such a dreadful actor that it’s hard to know what is bad acting and what is his overbearing character though.

I don’t like Bernie.

Will Dev dump her?

Mal looks more her type.

Hope they both leave.

I like Bernie. She is a flawed character and she is a great actress. I think she is trying so hard to be strong for everyone else she hasn't allowed herself to grieve for Paul. Billy dying has brought up all her emotions again. Gemma on the other hand is a one dimensional character. I know they try to portray her as uncouth but all this eating with her mouth open and being greedy with food is just unpleasant.

Just didn't ring true

I quite liked Mal. I must say I wondered what was wrong with Bernie. She wasn't that distraught when Paul died. Sad but not so overcome. All that drinking and clubbing and drugs just during true. Bottom line I just don't care about Bernie. She can leave any time.
Meanwhile, poor Dev doing his best.

If they open a joint account I can't see Todd allowed any money and he will be begging for pocket money. I do wish Todd would wake up and run.

I also expected Roy to offer Mal accommodation. Is Roy losing his marbles, offering money in advance to a man he has never clapped eyes on before? I hope Mal doesn't stay.
