What's wrong with Robert?!


Seriously. How annoying is he?

Why has he become so concerned about Michelle all of a sudden? When the car exploded, he ran off looking for her... why?

And what's with all the '...think how Anna must feel...' comments.

Surely he doesn't feel THAT guilty, just because he knew David was in the bistro basement?

Now he's not with Tracy, Corrie might as well get rid of him!

Live out your fantasy here with me...

Yes, I know what you mean. Robert grates on me.

Where were these so-called morals of his when he took full advantage of the fact that Tracy basically conned Nick (via Carla) out of the bistro. He was supposed to be so disgusted by the things she did to get the place that he split up with her over it and rightly so. However, if he thought it was such a bad thing then why would he hold on to it? He's really quite the hypocrite.

I like Robert but I have no idea why he is being so concerned over Anna and Michelle. Tim made me laugh when he kept telling him to get lost in the hospital.

I do wonder why they keep mentioning his hand too? The wound he had wasn't that serious but has been referenced quite a few times. I wonder if something will later go wrong, sepsis maybe?

reply

Because they (the writers) are obviously setting up an affair or one night stand storyline between Michelle and Robert. There can't be any other reason why he and Michelle are suddenly interacting.

reply

Yep. When he opened the bistro door and saw - guess who! - Michelle - it was so obvious where this is leading.

Is every fortysomething man obliged to sleep with every fortysomething woman at some point in CS-land?

I thought the same.

Looks as if you're right, he gave her a wistful look at the end of tonight's ep.

Be still my heart this reads as a romantic novel.

God i hope not. I can see something happening here but i really hope i'm wrong.

I can't see Michelle being interested but it looks like Robert might be.

reply

As if Rob wasn't retarded enough dating Tracy this week he really outdid himself in the loser stakes.

reply

Correct me if I'm wrong but he also knew that Tracy tried to kill Carla in cold blood, and was responsible for the fire, but still said/did nothing. Mind you Sharif and Yasmin know that Tracy is responsible for their son's death and they did nothing about it.

But where the hell is Robert living? At one point in the bistro I remember him saying he was going to get a shower implying that the place had it's own bathroom. Does that mean that he's living there? Perhaps the place has an upstairs flat as well as a cellar. It would be in the way of the railway tracks but that's no problem is it?
