Gail loses another one!
In ITV’s Corronation Strett, Gail Platt is famous for her lack of success with men: she is now up to marriage number 5! And in true soap style, none of them have ended happily (well, marriages just don’t end happily, do they?).
In marriage number one, Gail Potter became Gail Tilsley. They later divorced after her affair with Ian Latimer, amid Brian’s doubt that he was the father of Sarah-Lou. They later re-married (making this Gail’s second marriage), before Brian was tragically killed in a stabbing. Marriage number 3 was to toy-boy Martin, making her Gail Platt. In this marriage, it is Martin’s second affair that ends the marriage. Thrice bitten, but still not shy, Gail marries the psychopathic murderer Richard, making her Gail Hillman and onto her forth marriage. As viewers will know, this marriage was doomed from the start, as the clearly unhinged Richard plunged the whole family into a canal in a bid to end all of their lives.
And after all of this drama, normal people would think that Gail would give up on the idea of marriage, as she clearly has horrendous taste in men. But nope, man number 5, Joe McIntyre, has popped the question and got her to registry office on time. And now he is trying to fake his own death to get out of debt! And in real Corrie style, this plan is bound to backfire and catch Gail head-on.
Can Gail pick them or what?!
