appeals to all sorts of ages, tastes and personalities, which may be why the bosses of ITV soap Coronation Street decided to tackle the subject matter.<\/p>\n<p>According to Corrie Blog, which reveals snippets of information from the show, discussion about the platform will appear on tonight's (August 22nd) episode.<\/p>\n<p>Eileen Grimshaw is said to check out an online dating site because she is lonely and looking for love.<\/p>\n<p>The factory worker is known for having a number of failed relationships in the past and this could explain why she is keen to try a new method.<\/p>\n<p>Known for her feisty behaviour and caring nature towards her loved ones, Grimshaw may well appeal to males who are looking for a strong-willed woman.<\/p>\n<p>The news source does not reveal whether or not her online dating attempts are successful, although future episodes may make this clear.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Simon Williams<br> &nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-800706953-ADNFCR\"
