Lots of controversy about what happened with Fred. Varying various stories told over the years about it. Fred Feast, the character who played him, suddenly took several weeks off in 1983, forcing re-writes at short notice. Feast said he had been suffering from depression, with random fits of tears and problems remembering his lines. It seems that in true 1980s style, no help was offered to him and the powers that be started to dislike him. He refused to sign a new contract, upset that he felt they were making Fred Gee into something of a buffoon, and said he didn't want to be another 'Coronation Street Cabbage'. Rightly or wrongly, this was interpreted as a tasteless reference to the likes of Bernard Youens (Stan Ogden) and Jack Howarth (Uncle Albert) who had both died recently. Another side was also reported: "Feast's departure from the serial in 1984, after 552 episodes, was abrupt. Bill Podmore was furious at Feast's refusal to sign a new contract after allegedly agreeing verbally to do so - or to allow storyline writers extra time to write his character out. However, Podmore [the producer] was not sorry to lose someone who had caused him headaches with his off-screen activities. He wrote in his 1990 memoirs, Coronation Street: the inside story: "Fred gave us all more than our share of trouble. He was not much of an ambassador for Coronation Street and there were several occasions when I hauled him into the office for a dressing down. On one particularly embarrassing occasion he distinguished himself at a Variety Club dinner by shaking bottles of champagne and spraying anyone within range."

Mike was such a fantastic, complex, three dimensional and totally believable character. He had his faults - he could be tough as old boots and stubborn as a mule, when he got the bit between his teeth. But there was a heart of gold beating beneath that brash, Cockney exterior! Introducing Mike Baldwin, a brand new Southern character to keep the Northerners on their toes, was one of genius Corrie producer Bill Podmore's first moves when he took over the show in 1976. Mike - alias that wonderful actor Johnny Briggs - hit the ground running, with the character pretty much fully-formed from his very first appearance. And he could do it all, brilliantly - comedy, tragedy, drama, romance. What talent! They threw so many diverse situations at Mike, and he handled them all with aplomb! Mike carried some of the show's most exciting and memorable story lines, and graced the cobbles for 30 years - hardly ageing a day over those three glorious decades! Good on ya Johnny, you were pure class.

Mavis's fluttering and dithering and "what shall I do" over Victor's proposal is just pathetic. If she was really in love with Derek and committed to marrying him, she'd know exactly what to do: tell Victor "no", "no thank you", "hard luck, you're too late", "get stuffed", "do one" - or any of various other alternatives. To me, it just shows she didn't love Derek (at the time), but just wanted to be married - first to ask, gets the bride. Or in this case, not - until later.

Quite simple really, she took after their mother, who was domineering and treated her daughter without indulgence, therefore she grew up fast.
