Has Coronation Street turned unpleasant?

I've been away over the Easter weekend staying with my mother-in-law in a very nice part of Yorkshire.  She takes a different newspaper to the one we have at home and I picked it up over a lull in the chocolate-eating at the weekend to see this letter, above.

It's a rant against Coronation Street and despite my best efforts for I like to see the good in everything Corrie-wise, I did find myself in agreement with some of it.  The use of the word unpleasant is telling in the letter. I sucked in air though my teeth when the pig's heart was revealed and muttered 'Ooh, there's no need for that."

But maybe I'm an old fuddy-duddy who needs to get a life. I'm wondering what you, dear readers, think to the letter above?
