Spare a thought for the poor children in Coronation Street. It suddenly occurred to me while watching last week that many of the children have lost parents.

In no particular order they are :

Jack Webster - lost his mum in the tram crash

Hope Stape - her father, a murderer, died of a brain haemorrhage after a fall.
Ruby Dobbs. - her mum died of an aneurysm

Max Turner
Lily Platt. - their dad was killed by their mum, Kylie, and their mum was stabbed by Fiona’s son.

Harry Platt - Sarah Platt’s son, dad killed by Kylie

Aadi Alahan
Asha Alahan - Mum Sunita died of a heart attack while in hospital recovering after a fire

Kelly Neelan. - Dad killed by Gary Windass and mum died if cancer

Joseph Brown. - Mum died in a car accident while living in Portugal

Bertie Barlow. - Mum died of cancer

Summer Spellman - Dad died of cancer

Baby Alfie Habib. - Dad died in car crash accident ( ? )

Simon Barlow - Mum died of cancer

Sam Blakeman - Nick ‘s son - mum was shot by a gangster

Liam Connor. - Dad killed by hit and run driver hired to kill him.

* Quite a list. I may have missed one or two off it ! Added to the this quite a few Coronation Street women have been to prison it’s all rather unlikely in a respectable back street, don’t you think ?

Correction : , Lily Platt ‘s Dad is David Platt. She lost her mum, Kylie who was stabbed.

I thought about the poor kids! They are getting paid between £400 and £2000 an episode I believe so I think the not real deaths of their pretend parents won't be such a thing to make me call them poor in any sense.

and the black child of Tyron's loins has vanished up those stairs and probably won't be seen again until she's a teenager and has had a face lift.
