Who are you and where are you from?I'm eLiz from Florida, USA.
How long have you been watching Corrie?
I watched the first episode of Coronation Street as a schoolgirl in my hometown of Manchester. I emigrated to Canada and it took a while for Corrie to be aired there but I eventually was able to pick up the storyline. I almost turned down an opportunity to move to the USA because Corrie was not shown in my area! However for a while I arranged for a family member to record the programme and send me the video every month, what bliss. That ended and for several years I was Corrie-less but now I'm back with my friends on the Street. I curl up with a cuppa tea in my Corrie mug on my Corrie tray. Actually my house is full of Corrie memorabilia, books and videos, the best being my own video that I took when I visited the set in Manchester quite a few years ago.

Your favourite female and male characters - and the reasons why?
My favourite female character these days is Becky. She's come such a long way, tries so hard and bounces back time and time again. My favourite male character is Graeme and my fantasy storyline involves him finding a girlfriend and letting us into his life - we know so little about him. However I loved the Martha / Ken affair and would give anything to see Stephanie Beacham back in whatever capacity
And what would your fantasy Corrie storyline be?
My personal fantasy is to sit in the Rovers Return and share a drink with Rita and Emily and Jack and the gang and reminisce.
