I obviously as I always do, respect totally you and your post above kazanne, it does make interesting reading, although in the main it seems she was more a pain to the production team than as to the other cast members overall.
I guess the same can be said as to many actors and actresses, Joan Collins for one when on Dynasty for instance.
I watched old re-runs of dynasty a couple of years back, thought she was great in that but also she was an actress with constant demands too.
I obviously take your post of the article as presented in the Mail as a 'possible' take on her with likely foundation to parts of it.
However from what I have learned as to the press I take much of what they say as a bit of truth with a lot of selective invention.
The Mail and the Sun are 2 papers particularly I have come to disregard for their near nonsense over the years.
I can accept younger actors on Corrie may have been not so overjoyed at her return at times but like in all areas, older more established stars are seen as threats once younger actors and actresses are looking for the best storylines.
Her demands etc; as listed in that Mail article does not though convey her being really nasty to other cast members overall,it deals with headaches for the producers and directing team but not necessaily with any venom coming against her from the majority of Corrie cast members.
Many actors and actresses are known and accepted as being often unreasonable people at times in their demands and attitude,it applies to them all though and I am sure many of Corrie's current cast make strong demands at times too.
The storylines for Bet on Corrie dried up largely after her association with Alec who she married in the series,therein likely lies the problem with any future return, really only Emily, Ken, Dierdre, Gail,Rita,Kevin and Sally are any vehicles for any storyline with Bet now.
For me, it is telling though, that her character has never been killed off by any producers of Corrie,she was a part of the 50th anniversary celebrations for Corrie and her character could walk onto the street anytime if it was thought mileage was in it.
Who knows what could come after CBB.
Cheryl Fergison for instance, on bbbots,said she loved Julie and was sure they would be doing something together in the future.
I guess it all boils down to whether people liked her character in Corrie, and also whether they like her or not as Julie or see her as irrelevant now.
I like her,as her character Bet and also as Julie the person,I see no wrong in what she has done in life or even what she is doing now on CBB.
In my own view,wanting the best for yourself and being a pain at times is not a crime and I have already seen and read so many lies and false accounts of peoples lives and careers in the press, the Sun and Mail as 2 of the worst offenders of that, to last me a lifetime and I am only 20 now.
Hey kazanne, never worry as to making a long post, you know how I can go on and on at times once I get going.
I generally always agree with you anyway and although we have different takes on matters Julie Goodyear,I will always respect and admire your balance and fairness.
I enjoyed reading it all and thanks for your response to my post as always.
