Daisy in Coronation Avenue is being ruined

This time final 12 months Daisy Midgeley took centre stage in Coronation Street after an acid assault modified her life. Now, she’s again on the coronary heart of the motion, however this time for all of the incorrect causes.

What precisely are Coronation Avenue doing to Daisy’s character? From sufferer to Imply Lady, this isn’t a change we needed – or like.

Who Daisy was in Coronation Avenue

When Daisy first got here into Coronation Avenue it was unclear who she was. Was she a money-grabbing schemer with no coronary heart or was she a messed-up younger lady from a damaged background who actually simply needed to be liked? To be sincere, it felt like Corrie additionally didn’t know who she was so that they made her a complicated character till they determined.

Nevertheless, though she heartlessly cut up up Ryan Connor and Alya Nazir after which swiftly moved on to Daniel Osbourne when she heard he’d inherited a home, it was via Daniel we lastly started to see Daisy.

Their relationship could have began off a rip-off on her half, however they shortly, genuinely, fell in love. By means of them we noticed her caring aspect, her turn out to be a mum to Bertie and her personal mother-daughter relationship with Jenny blossom.

Daisy and Daniel had been ticking alongside fairly properly and even started planning a marriage. We believed in them, we needed them to succeed, in brief, they had been an excellent match.

We even began to grasp why Daisy was who she was when she first arrived after we met flighty mum,Christina and the ladies who used to bully her in school. Daisy made sense.

Acid assault story

When Justin Rutherford came along issues took a darkish flip for Daisy. He began stalking her and have become obsessed along with her. Determined to verify nobody else would ever need her, Justin threw acid in her face on her wedding ceremony day. It was a 12 months in the past this week that every thing modified for Daisy.

Ryan jumped in entrance of Daisy and took the complete brunt of the acid on his face and arm. Daisy had a small burn on her chest.

In these heartbreaking scenes, Daisy was the victim. She took again management, ensuring Justin was caught and serving to to ship him to jail. All-the-while her guilt was consuming away at her over what Ryan was going via. She grew nearer to him, emotions turned concerned and he or she cheated on Daniel.

All of this was comprehensible, there was a transparent path to this juncture. It’s even clear the place the character change at Christmas got here from. Daisy had lost Daniel to Bethany, Ryan had moved away with Crystal and Daisy had no actual objective. It was affordable when the chance to take Stephen’s cash and get herself again on prime offered itself, she would have taken it. I’ve misplaced every thing so subsequently I’ll take one thing again and I don’t care who I harm within the course of.

Nevertheless, it’s what has occurred since then, notably within the latest weeks that’s baffling. Daisy has gone from being the sufferer in such a heartbreaking and superbly performed storyline to the Imply Lady of the cobbles. As soon as once more, we don’t know who Daisy is any extra.

Daisy in Coronation Avenue now

The reckless spending, the rowing with Jenny and them turning towards one another is all ridiculous. Why do two girls always need to be pitted towards one another? Jenny and Daisy’s relationship has at all times been difficult, however they’ve at all times, at all times had one another’s backs. However not any extra.

Daisy’s perspective in the direction of Jenny has been bratty and non-caring. The very fact she stated she had no intention of paying Carla back the £250k they stole didn’t ring true. And the ‘give-a-stuff’ response she needed to Carla discovering out felt completely off.

And let’s not even get began on the feud with Bethany. It has come from nowhere – is Bethany alleged to be defending Daniel’s honour? Why has she obtained concerned in any respect? To make Daisy appear much more of a nasty particular person?

Corrie had developed Daisy into such a well-rounded character. So why have we gone again to this?

Make a change now, Corrie

Daisy and Jenny shouldn’t be towards one another, they need to be on one another’s aspect. Sure, we all know Daisy has at all times had it in her to be imply and egocentric, however to this extent after every thing she has been via, after changing into so likeable, why change her again?

This time final 12 months Daisy was the star of Coronation Street. The acid assault storyline was so effectively finished and we felt for Daisy as a result of we cared. It is mindless that now she has turn out to be somebody we don’t like or care about.

Soaps have a historical past of creating their victims the villain – particularly when they’re girls. Simply take a look at what Emmerdale did to Lydia after her rape.

Let girls help girls. Let girls like girls. And let Daisy be the model of herself she was only a few months in the past.
