I don't like the Mortons but sadly I doubt this is enough to get them the boot.

It always amazes me how incredibly stupid these soaps stars are! Don't they realise that people will always be looking to sell a story on them!

I say sack them- if they cannot take the responsibilties that come with the job (being a role model) then they're not good enough for the job.

Also I don't like the twins so it will be a good excuse to have a car crash or something

Probably filming the upcoming story line.

Don't Corrie bosses suspend actors who get involved with drugs? If they suspend those two for a while then the Mortons will have a VERY hard time getting established as characters.

Although they were probably daft for doing it, I think that saying they should get sacked for a couple of drags is a bit OTT.

I heard that in an upcoming storyline that

spoiler:
Vernon & Daryll smoke cannabis in a back alley and Mel finds out

so I dont know what to make of this....

Sister paper?
Didn't happen in April. Maybe never.

Love the way the druggies say ""Neither of us are big Corrie fans, it's just the something that's on in the background when you're at home. It's on TV so often these days that it's hard to miss it."

So, they're embarrassed about (anonymously) admitting they watch a tv show, but don't have any qualms about talking about their drug habit. Duh!

Talk about entrapment, he wouldn't have offered them a smoke if he didn't know they were famous. As soon as he found out they were famous, it was all about catching them puffing on camera and cashing in so he can buy his next load of the stuff, what totally hideous people wander this Earth.

Yep, anything for a story, something similar happened with Rob Kazinsky off Eastenders.

I don't really care -- they're only young, it's their choice whether to experiment with drugs or not. And I doubt they'd get much punishment anyway.

Sadly I doubt they'll be sacked over this.

Probably not. I expect the producers have enough experience of these raggy papers not to take any notice.
