Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[Mo Mouse]

The old soak Rita wasn't going to miss out on that free champagne, was she.

[Perdita]

Surely the cigarettes could have been explained by Peter coming to the flat to see Simon, forgot to take the ciggies with him ..
and why on earth did Johnny change his mind within seconds and even propose to Jenny?

[mariba]

I know I have missed all the episodes over the Christmas.. I just can't understand why does it have to be a secret that Peter is seeing Toyah? I was hoping better storylines for more responsible Peter though, not only romance again..

[RogerOver]

Well i never saw that proposal coming. She will ruin it all somehow she cannot help herself. They are now making Gemma more over the top than before. They need to calm it down. Also this whole baby as soon as you wed thing is ridiculous

Yup, Gemma is OTT, but it did make me laugh a lot when she said she brought Johnny and Jenny together, as she was, "Playing Putrid," which Rita instantly corrected to be, "Cupid." Then Eva said, "She was right the first time."
I suppose she's a modern-day Mrs Malaprop really.

Thats two words i have had to look up, now i get it.

[RogerOver]

Thats two words i have had to look up, now i get it.

Go on then, which were the two words - Malaprop and OTT?

[swmc66]

Yes that one and Putrid

[swmc66]

Malaprop and putrid

Billy is becoming the most slimy character in any soap at the moment. Absolutely LOATHE him and the way he puts strangers / waifs and strays / just about anybodt before those about whom he is supposed to care. Spent most of his time lying and deceiving Sean and now similar with Todd. What about the other thousands of people who sleep rough ? Really despise him.

[swmc66]

Surprised he got his parish back so quickly. I think he means no harm but highly imature
