Coronation Street fans ‘switch off’ after ‘traumatic’ Gemma and Chesney scenes
CORONATION Street fans could not bare to look at their TV screens after witnessing Gemma Winter scoff a burger in front of their eyes.
Fans of the ITV soap were left dismayed and all saying the same thing as Gemma chowed down on the burger created especially for her by husband Chesney.
During the episode, after Gemma revealed Chesney had been talking in his sleep about cheese and bacon it prompted him to come up with a cunning new business plan.
The cash-strapped couple have been trying to come up with innovative ways to earn more money for their family as well as to pay for their upcoming wedding.
Gemma has begun a babysitting group to rake in hundreds of extra pounds a day having completed a successful trial with Micheal’s daughter Glory.
This led Chesney to try and come up with a perfect new burger recipe that he could somehow transform into a money-making idea.
In order to get it right, the dad-of-five served up his first attempt for wife-to-be Gemma who wasted no time in trying it out.
While the burger was a huge hit with Gemma, Chesney revealed he would not be ploughing ahead with his big business venture just yet but reassured her it would happen ‘one day’.
But fans could not focus on anything Chesney had to say as they expressed their displeasure at seeing Gemma eat the burger and questioned if it really needed to be shown.
One fan raged: “Why do they keep showing her eating and talking with her mouth full, and always shouting.”
Another said: “Did we really have to see Gemma eat and drink???? I don’t think so.”
A third commented: “Gemma eating a burger has traumatized me forever #corrie.”
While a fourth begged show bosses: “Please please don’t show anymore scenes with Gemma eating.”
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV.
