Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - V

[lizann]

Geoff is completely different from when he started on Corrie, when he was fairly easy going and friendly, now he comes across as paranoid and defensive, constantly accusing Yasmeen of not listening, not caring etc... And surely Yasmeen could have checked the correct time of the flight easily enough, rather than allowing Geoff to let her think she was getting forgetful?

will they come back married or geoff widowed killed off yasmen

why does gizmo gemma put up with her mam?

ali should just tell maria about the drug addiction instead of being afraid of gary

This storyline is going on for quite a bit yet so they will come back, whether married or not remains to be seen .. maybe Geoff will claim they are married and that Yasmeen has forgotten it already???? I guess Gizmo loves her mum, regardless and with the 4 babies now she is probably glad she has some help even if Bernie is proving to be a nightmare scamming all the time. Would be easy if all folk in soapland would just be honest and tell family and friends what is going on then there would be no blackmail .. but also no drama..

What bothered me was that there were already enough strong storylines going on (Robert's crash, Roy and Carla's visit to his brother etc) without cramming the Bernie/Gemma/quads rubbish into the episode as well. Recent episodes feel more crowded than usual, which is something I haven't noticed for a while.
Also, who was running the cafe after Roy stormed out? Shona's on her honeymoon and Yasmeen was pre-occupied with Geoff and (apparently) heading off to Las Vegas.

The problem with the Geoff storyline, is it comes up every so often and then forgot about

I have no interest in Ali's drug addiction and war with Gary over Maria

Hard to feel sorry for Michelle who I generally loathe anyway or Robert.

Reasons being, Ray is a creep of the highest (or should that be lowest?) order, however Michelle did take a sizeable amount of hush money with the full understanding what it was for. Two minutes later she's blabbing and is then surprised when there is consequences.

As for Robert, talking on a mobile phone while driving is one of the most careless and downright stupid things to do.

[lizann]

need more of roy and his new family, carla sees roy as family too, telling the goth how good roy is, well said carla and all true

[Brucie]

Here's a crazy thought, on the subject of Gemma's ridiculous and waste of a character mother. Instead of fretting about a £500 bar bill, why didn't they return what she'd stolen - it was all in the fridge and the holdall? Just thinking aloud.

Can Simon Gregson become even more of a caricature of himself or has he now reached the absolute pits?

I don't think the actor can have any credibility in himself anymore as this is just a farcical role he is playing requiring no acting skills, just having a gormless look in the background. Maybe he is not capable of anything better. The younger actors have more believable roles, except Gemma.

Missed this week`s episodes .. looks like I have missed something dramatic .. or not ... hope to be able to see it on omnibus ..
