Question

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a126677/corrie-chiefs-order-pregnant-star-to-smoke.html

There is no way i would agree to this!! they know that shes pregnant in real life too!

Answer 1

I find it shocking that they are asking a pregnant woman to smoke just to make it fit into the storylines. They should change them to take the health of her unborn baby into account. I would never agree to it. They say they will give her herbal cigarettes to smoke but a cigarette is still a cigarette. I would tell them to **** off!!

Answer 2

That cant be true!! Nobody can force a pregnant women to smoke!! Herbal or not!!

Answer 3

awful! she shouldn't put up with it!

Answer 4

herbal cigs stop ur moaning probally get more toxins in ur lungs from being stuck in trafic for 10mins or walking next to a busy road for 10mins or cooking a fry up.

"However, King has now been told that a new Corrie plot will see Carla taking up the habit in an attempt to reduce her stress levels. Show producers have agreed to provide herbal cigarettes for the scenes"

as long as her baby ant deformed or retarded its all good, r ancestors used to sit round fires preg or not and we survived. And it ant like she is taein crack or meth

Answer 5

:O thats actually terrible

Answer 6

that's a disgusting thing for the bosses to make her do. How dare they make a pregnant woman smoke, do they care so little about their cast that they would endanger her health and her unborn baby's?

Answer 7

That's illegal, so they can't do that.

Furthermore, I am amazed they don't have "fake" cigarrettes that look lilke real ones.

Answer 8

I know is awful but it being a soap and all it will probably end in either a miscarage or a prem birth/small baby, to put people off smoking when pregnant and show her as an evil mother who put her addiction before her baby.
