Coronation Street fans have accused the soap of recycling storylines as Kelly and Aadi pretended to be engaged to enter a competition.

Kelly saw a Weatherfield Gazette competition to win an all expenses paid wedding in Mexico.

She decided she and Aadi should pretend to be married to get the holiday, and they would find a way out of the wedding.

However fans remember this storyline being done a few years ago.

Coronation Street fans accuse soap of recycling storylines

In Monday’s episode, Kelly and Aadi were in the Bistro.

As Ryan was speaking to Weatherfield reporter Ellie, who was meant to be out handing out leaflets for the competition, Kelly saw one of the leaflets on the floor.

Kelly began talking about her dream wedding to Aadi.

Ellie soon overheard and asked if they were engaged. Kelly pretended that they were and Ellie told them about the competition.

She explained they needed to fill out an application and someone would be in touch about having a shoot day.

They would be filmed doing a couples quiz and Gazette readers would vote for who they want to progress to the next stage.

However fans have noticed similarities with this plot to another Corrie storyline.

But in 2019 he asked Mary for a divorce so he could marry his fiancée Freda.

Now fans are accusing the soap of ‘recycling’ storylines.
