why did jade stay in the house

I'm really starting to think Hope and Jade deserve each other. That might be a bit unkind, but she really is unbearable.
I know she is very young but that Hope has no concept of loyalty.
where is sarah living, with adam?

why did jade stay in the house
I can't understand why Tyrone left her in the house in the first place, when he knows what she's capable of. Also, if Hope wasn't being hidden in Jade's attic how did nobody in that big group find her?

Presumably they searching locally near the house, but we do not know where the cemetery actually is, it could be some distance away.

Because he's a megalomaniac who thinks he's going to get his end away with any one of the staff who are unable to avoid his charms.

More over the top violence on Coronation street when Fiz clobbered Jade! Whatever happened to good old hair pulling catfights?! Hopefully Jade will tell all to the police, Fiz's suspended sentence will kick in and Corrie viewers will get another nice Fiz free few months.
jade staying, redeemed?
simon returned, downstairs from listening to tapes :p
Jade clearly needs a lot of help and I don't think she should be allowed to spend time with Hope, regardless of her relationship with her. Fiz and Tyrone need to explain this to Hope in a way that she can understand.

Interesting parenting skills - proposing to reward outrageously bad behaviour by giving the child what she wants!

Her twins have been adopted. As far as I understand, she waived her rights to be involved any further in their lives to save any confusion on their part. Even if she did make contact with them, she wouldn't be able to get them back.

I haven't a clue how measles works.
It's true we don't know where Bertie got it from, but Corrie made a point of showing Maria with Bertie a few days before she contracted measles. Though I believe the incubation period is about 10-12 days and I don't think it was that long before that we saw the contact between the two. So, yes, you are right, that Maria could have got it from wherever Bertie got it from.
Surely that after over 10 years of no contact, a solicitor is not needed for the divorce for Tim and Charlie .. both can apply through postal system and no solicitor needs to be involved ...
parkerman
01-02-2020, 14:03
There is no such thing as an automatic divorce. You would still have to go through the courts, but if both parties are in agreement and there is no problems with custody of children or division of property it would be a fairly simple straightforward matter and would not really need a solicitor to be involved, but some people feel nervous about going through court procedures without professional legal help. There are organisations that could help at much lower fees though.

I am going back now 27 years or so, I was living in a different country to my now ex-husband .. think I applied for the divorce via post, he had to respond ... was done in a matter of months at the cost of then 45 quid or thereabouts ... no property or kids involved so very straight forward .. just like Tim and Charlie .. no solicitors involved in my case, just the court who granted Decree Nisi and then Decree Absolute .. of course, that might have changed by now
Geoff was really sinister in Friday's episode. Yasmeen's comment about his magic act being a bit rusty was unfair but everything after that seemed to involve Geoff trying to get back at her for being "disrespectful", in such a nasty, threatening way. I was hoping Michael and Grace would notice the atmosphere between them but they don't know either character very well and they have their own problems to work through.
It's not a coincidence that Geoff's a DJ and magician - both those jobs involve showmanship, being the centre of attention and everyone thinking he's wonderful. Even working as a waiter allows him to be charming and outgoing. I really want him to be caught talking down to Yameen in public and everyone turns on him but I doubt that will happen.

There was me thinking Yasmeen had a mind of her own. When she found out Sharif was cheating with her best friend she wasted no time throwing him out. She must have had a personality transplant to become the doormat she is now portrayed as. Before she met Goeff she was an strong independent woman helping other people and organizing all sorts of things at the community centre. Even supposing she thinks she loves him, I find it completely out of character for her to put up with his behavior.
I was surprised Tim wasn't more angry when Geoff lost his temper with him but I also wondered if Tim is used to that kind of behaviour from when he was growing up?

The thing with this kind of abuse is that it is very very slowly happening and victims are not aware. Your self-confidence gets eroded, tiny tiny bit by bit so yes, that strong independent woman becomes a totally changed character. She is also now afraid of him as he is so volatile and she never knows how he is going to react.
And to add to that ... victims really believe what they are being told .. that they are at fault, they are the ones that do wrong all the time and that they should be grateful that their partners are still with them because nobody else would put up with them :angry:

While what you say is true, I just do not see it applying to Yasmeen. Perhaps if they had introduced her as a more indecisive, weaker, less confident character I could accept this, but they didn't.
I'm wondering if he will indeed meet his comeuppance but not until BGT week... That will give him several months to do his worst...
In general, Monday's episode's seemed to be crammed with storylines. We could have done without the book club and Tracy and Steve's attempts at a romantic liaison which would have allowed more time for the other storylines.

Whilst the acting and scripting of the interplay between Geoff and Yasmeen is excellent, I find the attitude of her so called friends very unrealistic and therefore too convenient for the storyline. Before Geoff arrived on the scene, Yasmeen was a pillar of the community, seemingly liked and admired by everyone, but suddenly they're believing the word of someone they've known for a relatively short time over their longstanding friend - despite the lack of any evidence whatsoever to back up his story.

The trouble is that Alya has never been keen on Geoff even before this started in earnest, so she won't be seen as unbiased, and Geoff will use the point of her 'losing her inheritance' against her. That time where he forced her to drink the entire glass of wine was particularly nasty, though not as bad as the way he went on after the magic show.

That sadistic scum Geoff really needs to die a slow, agonisingly painful death. The more horrible the better.
Here's what I'm hoping for Geoff: Yasmeen's friends gang up on him when they realise what he's been doing to her and they put HIM in the box, lock it and "lose" the key. And then they chuck the box in the canal.
Overall, I loved Friday's episode. I liked the idea of taking a big group of characters, of all ages, out of their usual environment, especially as many of them don't normally interact. It was also lovely to see strong, older characters who have decades long links with the Street and hear their philosophical conversations about times past, plus I was interested to hear that Eileen may have family connections to Elsie Tanner. I was sort of expecting it to be a standalone episode but it was good how the existing storylines fed into it a little. In relation to the odious Geoff I was surprised that he allowed Yasmeen to go to Blackpool without him but he might see it as a kind of "treat" to lure her into a false sense of security.
And that scene in the Rovers with all the ghosts of the past... I don't usually believe in ghosts but in this context it's nice to think that the characters of the past left a little bit of themselves behind, as Rita put it.

Talking of Geoff 'allowing' Yasmeen to go along, he gave her money. Was it just my imagination, bad eyesight or did he give her a five pound note....
It wasn't a perfect episode, of course - All those characters suddenly being free to travel to Blackpool on a weekday, hiring a coach at such short notice, Mary dancing... And the bus driver's constant "bathroom breaks" were annoying too, especially as a flat tyre or puncture could have served the same plot purposes - characters would still have to retire to the pub, Nina could have still stormed off etc. And the biggest flaw of all was Dennis' ashes being spilled all over the car park - not a respectful exit for a character who was in the very first episode, regardless of what he did to Rita. Plus they already did a "funny" scene with an urn a few months ago, when Mary thought Freda had killed Norris.
But I think you just have to overlook some of the plotholes, given that it was a special episode and there was so much lovely nostalgia in it.

I liked the feel of the CS episode and was very enjoyable to watch, although I did cringe at Bill Roache talking to the camera breaking the fourth wall at the end.
It is sad when older soap actors like Bill Roache, Barbara Knox and June Brown, become too theatrical and loose the art of how to act "normally" and stage act. However I did like the way they had the credits rolling at the end with different eras of the show. That was a nice touch by ITV.

If you mean why was he taken to hospital, it was because he'd had a heart attack. If you mean why was he taken to Weatherfield General in particular, it was something that I thought strange as well, unless his frequent stops meant they hadn't actually left Weatherfield, which seems unlikely given the views of the roads they were travelling on.

I don't live in the area, but IIRC, didn't one of the cast mention they were on the A583 when the heart attack occurred?
Looking on google maps, the A583 is the Preston to Blackpool road, which meant they must have been at least 35 miles from Manchester.
There must be a more local hospital than Wethy General?

It was nice to see John Henshaw as the coach driver in CS back on our screens, a very good actor, if CS have any sense they will snap him up for a more semi regular part in the show, they could do with the likes of John on the show.

I thought he was talking to the house, rather than to the camera. It was a lovely moment, though, and the older credits were indeed a nice touch.

If you mean why was he taken to hospital, it was because he'd had a heart attack. If you mean why was he taken to Weatherfield General in particular, it was something that I thought strange as well, unless his frequent stops meant they hadn't actually left Weatherfield, which seems unlikely given the views of the roads they were travelling on.
I meant the latter. They would surely go to the nearest hospital. Was Ken paid to do a tour of the Peak district ?

Maybe they mentioned Weatherfield Gen because they did not want viewers to get out their sat navs, google maps etc... because in real filming life they never left the Corrie set?.searchme? :hmm?:)

Also when he said he was trying to explain to the ticket collector that he had been to visit his wife in hospital and they asked him how she is, he replied he didn't know so they didn't believe him. He explained this to Maria by saying that he said that because they wouldn't let him see her. What sort of reasoning is that? He knows very well how she is. In any case, he did see her through the window, so he knew there was no change in her condition.

Epilepsy doesn't preclude you from driving, speaking as someone who has epilepsy and has driven for some years. David has Soap-Type epilepsy, a subset of other illnesses and conditions that only occur when the story demands it.
Talking of David though, I can see him not having the time to make pancakes in the morning but no bread? Surely among all the cigarettes, booze, sweets etc Dev sells a basic thing like bread or indeed cereal.

Bethany is getting on my nerves this storyline. Don't get me wrong, she was right to be suspicious of Ray but she went about unmasking him in completely the wrong way. Also, Daniel sneaking into his office to steal information was out of character for him and might get him into trouble when Bertie should be his priority.

Oh and answer the original point about surrendering the licence, I was diagnosed years before I could even get a licence (age), so I had to be fit free for a certain amount of time before getting my provisional. The DVLA know, the insurance company know, its all cleared. I know that if I take a fit during normal circumstances I have to give it up, believe me, I am well aware.

Loved the scenes with the Baileys. I hope people don't label Ed as homophobic as he really is trying to get his head around it. He loves his son but he was angry that the rest of his family knew about it, plus he has to accept that James is seeing his friend Danny, which, let's face it, was the real reason he came out, not that he needed to tell his dad, as he first claimed. A lot of stuff has been going on behind Ed's back, which he needs to come to terms with.
Some parents need time to accept news like this so the best thing is to give him time, not rant at him about prejudice etc. He might never embrace gay culture but that doesn't mean he should be demonised.

Normally I can't stand Gemma but I did feel sorry for her when she realised that Aled has never heard her voice. I hope this is the beginning of more serious storylines for her and Chesney as they will really have to grow up and face this situation together. It could bring out different aspects of their personalities.
I wondered if Freda will come back (it's possible if she's living in this retirement community that Ken is moving to) and Rita might ask her to talk to Gemma about deafness and the problems that Aled might face.

Fiz said Jade was not right in the head, like father like daughter, her daughter Hope has the same father as Jade
Sometimes I feel a bit sorry for Jade but on other occasions I don't

I think that Kirkie should be concerned about Beth going with Daniel
Windass is still a very nasty piece of work and Baldwin was out of order confiding in him.

One of life/soaps great mysteries - When Daniel dropped the wedding ring it was bright and shiny, after the car ran over it it was dull and discoloured - gold a metal that is resistant to corrosion. - Bent, Yes, discoloured, No - sometimes less is more.

Did they really have to rush Daniel off that night? It was already getting late in the evening and he still had to get packed, sort Bertie out while Beth also had to get packed and make arrangements for her absence and then they had at least a three hour drive up to Scotland, maybe more, depending what part of Scotland this retreat is in. Also, once they got there, Beth had to then look for suitable accommodation for herself and Bertie. Wouldn't early the next day have been better!?

I was thinking that ... guess they wanted to make a poignant point for Daniel and Bethany to leave the same day ...

Don't think Adam was confiding in him, more stirring things and winding him up. He does not like Gary and had been waiting for the oportunity to hurt him, but he might come to regret it if someone gets badly hurt at Gary's hands.
Loved the scenes with Roy and Nina. He has plenty of friends and honorary family members on the street, including Carla of course, but now he's finally found an actual relative who shares his eccentric hobbies. Nina might actually get on better with adults than with other teenagers; indeed after having to look after her father and shoulder a lot of responsibilities she might even find teenagers very superficial. I also like her awkward relationship with Carla who, as a character, needs a younger person to look after to bring out new aspects of her personality. Even if she moves in with Peter eventually I hope they don't forget about this little "family".

Nice Posting. I will not be happy as long as Windass continues to walk the earth.

Perhaps you could send him and Ben (from Eastenders) off in a rocket to Mars.
I've no idea why he feels the need to teach Ali a lesson when he's "won" (i.e about to marry Maria). And if he's that angry about Maria sleeping with Ali why doesn't he just dump her, like Sharon suggested? Either that or just get over it.
Loved the Roy/Carla/Nina scenes once more - good for Roy standing up for his niece after a lifetime of knowing what it's like to feel "different". In fact why don't the writers just forget about the other plots and give the three of them an episode to themselves?..
Why was Billy hosting the awards ceremony and how does he have the time?

I am wondering if Gary deliberately wound Ali up so he would attack him and get himself arrested?
Street sweepers do not do a very good job, leaving lumps of rock lying about on the street.
