Mike Baldwin Finale is heartbreaking
I can't bear, to watch this character, tragically, fall from our screens..
it's too sad an ending for such a huge character... Mike Baldwin is powerful and intense and his storylines over 30 years have been phenominal... I have unfortunatley had to turn off, I can't watch his fall prey to the wicked schemes of Danny and Leeanne... Please someone tell me, he leaves everything in his will, to the lovely Jamie... please.....

Love him or hate him, MB has been such a big part of the show for so many years; the fact that we all feel we know him - have grown up watching him - is what will make his decline so painful to witness. I watch the show on and off, but will certainly be watching this storyline. |

I agree - this is a very strong story which has been played beautifully to everyone else -= especially the wonderful Johnny Briggs.
And don't worry, I feel almost certain that danny is going to have a change of heart soon leaving that scheming little bitch Leanne with nowt! |

I agree with you both. The hardest part of this is knowing how Mike has been in the past, such a ruthless and shrewd business man, and of course...a womaniser. His downfall is all the more hard hitting because of this.
And Butters...I am also pretty sure that Danny will have a change of heart. |

I don't """regularly"""watch 'the 3 spechmarks=I sort of know what's going on day-to-day but every ep isn't a must-watch-kind of thing...But Mike needs the biggest send off...to me along with Ken, Bet, Annie, Len, Rita et al is Coronation Street...god bless Mike...

Can anyone tell me if Johnny Briggs is leaving of his own accord, or, have the Writers, decided the character has gone as far as possible..? personally I'd have loved a happier finale, like Mike and Penny sailing off into the sunset...
