Corrie's Got the Upper Hand

The Corrie OAPs are comedy gold already, but news that avenger Honor Blackman is joining the Street as randy pensioner Rula just illustrates why this soap is 2000 times better than EastEnders. One quibble though – how come she's shacking up with Norris. Admittedly he married Derek's ex Angela, but recently there's been loads of insinuations about his sexuality. Speaking of which, let's hope our worst fears about the "twist" in rivals Rita and Rula's "past relationship" aren't as filthy as we've been imagining.
