Stu Stubbs has a ring to it.

Well, he doesn't have to have the same last name.


Also, is it true that Sam Robertson is leaving?

[Jadefalcon]

No wonder Joseph wants to leave, being in that cramped eggbox, and I predict he's going to suffer hearing damage with Gemma's overly high pitched voice, also no one seems to have ever taught her how to speak, she's always got to shout.

Poor Joseph will lose his place in Corrie and if he does come back he will probably have a new head

[Perdita]

Also, is it true that Sam Robertson is leaving?

According to the press, he has confirmed it

[bratface]

According to the press, he has confirmed it


That's too bad. I like Adam. There aren't very many characters that are on 'canvas' that I like at the moment.

[LouiseP]

That's too bad. I like Adam. There aren't very many characters that are on 'canvas' that I like at the moment.

So that?s it is it ? Lydia?s job is done.

[Snagglepus]

Poor Joseph will lose his place in Corrie and if he does come back he will probably have a new head

And will wear a skirt.

[parkerman]

Shame Joseph's not going to Portugal. I was hoping to look him up. I am actually applying for Portuguese citizenship and passport at the moment.

[Son of Cain]

That's too bad. I like Adam. There aren't very many characters that are on 'canvas' that I like at the moment.

I am trying to think of any characters that I actually like, and there are very few. It seems now the trend in Soaps, is to make characters unlikeable or stupid, to the extent that it makes it difficult to like them.

[parkerman]

I am trying to think of any charact3rs that I actually like, and there are very few. It seems now the trend in Soaps, is to make characters unlikeable or stupid, to the extent that it makes it difficult to like them.

Yes, even Roy's had his moments recently.

[Perdita]

That's too bad. I like Adam. There aren't very many characters that are on 'canvas' that I like at the moment.

Apparently the article was about Sam discussing possibly leaving but he has not actually confirmed this. My apologies, did not read the full article.

[lizann]

adam should stay and get rid of sarah as she always complaining

i think i prefer emma with curtis than john

[bratface]

I've mentioned the 'stupid' thing before. It's mind-boggling that there are so many stupid people in one small village/neighborhood.

My current 'likes' are:

Adam
Peter
Carla
Toyah
Imran
Jenny
Daisy (not in the beginning though)

I go back & forth on Dev & Gary.

[bratface]

Apparently the article was about Sam discussing possibly leaving but he has not actually confirmed this. My apologies, did not read the full article.

No worries. I can't remember in what 'tabloid' I saw it. I was searching for something else & the 'headline' came up. I didn't click on it but I figured someone here would know?

[lizann]

brian wants to leave, let him and cathy off

[Son of Cain]

[QUOTE=bratface;973996]I've mentioned the 'stupid' thing before. It's mind-boggling that there are so many stupid people in one small village/neighborhood.



And as if to prove the point Emma is now pursuiting Jon, knowing she has feelings of guilt about Ted, and that she finds it impossible to keep her mouth shut.

[parkerman]

It's mind-boggling that there are so many stupid people in one small village/neighborhood.



Yes, Kirk is the most sensible person there these days.

[Dennis tanner]

Yes, Kirk is the most sensible person there these days.

Kirk for Mayor !!!

[bratface]

Yes, Kirk is the most sensible person there these days.


Dang, that's a pretty scary thought?

[Dennis tanner]

Adam should be concentrating on the reason for Lydia's lies. He should start with the registry of births.

[Jadefalcon]

Remind me who the flat belongs to because if it is his he should have told Sarah to sod off when she demanded the key. This is Leanne and Nick all over again.

[lizann]

lydia was in a flat alone, no kid? adam for a solicitor can be an idiot

[lizann]

abi doing drink and drugs then realises she is having a baby in the middle of no where

[mysangry]

So, Kevin wants nowt to do with Abbie then suddenly she has a baby, unless it's very premature it can't be Imans which would have been a right smack in the face for Toyah😣

[Dennis tanner]

So, Kevin wants nowt to do with Abbie then suddenly she has a baby, unless it's very premature it can't be Imans which would have been a right smack in the face for Toyah😣

They didn't even bother to make her look pregnant

[mysangry]

baggy overalls??

[parkerman]

They didn't even bother to make her look pregnant

Just like Sonia in Eastenders. No-one knew she was pregnant, not even herself, until she went into labour.

[bratface]

Just like Sonia in Eastenders. No-one knew she was pregnant, not even herself, until she went into labour.

Yes, but Sonia was a 'larger' woman/girl so more believable! But Abi? She is a small woman, 5' 4", probably 110 pounds (if that).

I saw an image of the 'baby' on one of your tabloids & the baby has a darker complexion & is really tiny for an ALMOST full-term baby. Have your writers been watching US soaps? Because there have been so many 'weird' storylines lately. I like UK soaps because they are usually grounded in reality but lately...?

[lizann]

abi's baby must be pea sized

[parkerman]

Good parenting from Kev there. Abandoning Jack for a few days just after he's lost Abi. If there is one time when Jack needs his dad it is right now.

[lizann]

how many times has abi been told leave the house, conveniently imran shown after every abi scene

nick wanted sam to play chess

[Dennis tanner]

Good parenting from Kev there. Abandoning Jack for a few days just after he's lost Abi. If there is one time when Jack needs his dad it is right now.

His aunty loves him and will look after him well.

I was amazed that that driver believed that Abi was about to give birth.

[parkerman]

Aunties are not the same as daddies.

[Dennis tanner]

Aunties are not the same as daddies.

THanks. I had not realised that

[parkerman]

THanks. I had not realised that

Obviously.

[Jadefalcon]

Oh Maria, sod off with your self indulgent holier than thou crap.

[Son of Cain]

If I win the lottery I certainly will not be buying a Nissan sports car. The air bag deployed but did not seem to inflate. Looked more like a folded pillow case that Abi's head was resting on.

[Son of Cain]

Will Toyah be so understanding when she finds out Imran is the father of Abi's baby.

Aggie and Toyah both mean well but do not seem to understand the word "No", trying to pressurized Abi into keeping the baby..

[lizann]

getting bored of abi week, no way she should have a baby in her care

[parkerman]

Aggie and Toyah both mean well but do not seem to understand the word "No", trying to pressurized Abi into keeping the baby..

Honestly, I just felt like slapping the self-satisfied sanctimonious Toyah round the face and I'm not normally a violent person!

[lizann]

Honestly, I just felt like slapping the self-satisfied sanctimonious Toyah round the face and I'm not normally a violent person!

the friendship with abi came about fast, toyah could help kelly and laura, no sign of sally or tracy for abi or even sponsor peter

[Dennis tanner]

getting bored of abi week, no way she should have a baby in her care

Have to agree. She has just been continous chaos since she arrived

[Dennis tanner]

Honestly, I just felt like slapping the self-satisfied sanctimonious Toyah round the face and I'm not normally a violent person!

At least Toyah means well. I support her

[Perdita]

If I win the lottery I certainly will not be buying a Nissan sports car. The air bag deployed but did not seem to inflate. Looked more like a folded pillow case that Abi's head was resting on.

I agree

[parkerman]

Just as well Roy never has any customers.

[Dennis tanner]

Abi....Her next 2 big screw ups have already been written, performed and are waiting to be shown

[tammyy2j]

How was Toyah unmasked and not related allowed to see the premature sick baby?

[lizann]

nicky from escort to teacher's aid

[Dennis tanner]

nicky from escort to teacher's aid

She will have an interesting CV.

Was it so difficult for Daisy to admit she was jealous ?

[LouiseP]

She will have an interesting CV.

Was it so difficult for Daisy to admit she was jealous ?

Yes, I thought that.

[bratface]

She will have an interesting CV.

Was it so difficult for Daisy to admit she was jealous ?


Yes, self-centered people really have a problem with admitting they have foibles like the rest of us.

[Son of Cain]

The cynic in me is wondering if Lara is really dying, or is this just a ploy for her to get her hands on Rock's missing money.

[Dennis tanner]

The cynic in me is wondering if Lara is really dying, or is this just a ploy for her to get her hands on Rock's missing money.

The only puzzle is her medication. Is it real ?

[Son of Cain]

Did I imagine that Abi had already told Imran she was pregnant with his baby? Now it seems she did not know she was pregnant, or was this just a story she told the hospital. But she did know she was expecting, didn't she? And she had told Imran? - Confused and puzzled.

[bratface]

Did I imagine that Abi had already told Imran she was pregnant with his baby? Now it seems she did not know she was pregnant, or was this just a story she told the hospital. But she did know she was expecting, didn't she? And she had told Imran? - Confused and puzzled.

She told Imran back in January (New Year's Eve/Day), that she had taken a test & it was negative.

[parkerman]

Did I imagine that Abi had already told Imran she was pregnant with his baby? Now it seems she did not know she was pregnant, or was this just a story she told the hospital. But she did know she was expecting, didn't she? And she had told Imran? - Confused and puzzled.

No, she didn't know she was pregnant until she went into labour.

[Snagglepus]

I think I remember her taking a test that was positive and she told Imran but then had her period and assumed she wasn't.

[LouiseP]

The cynic in me is wondering if Lara is really dying, or is this just a ploy for her to get her hands on Rock's missing money.

Well, I thought that but Dr Gaddas came to see her last night and advised her about using the morphine. It must be real.

[Son of Cain]

Well, I thought that but Dr Gaddas came to see her last night and advised her about using the morphine. It must be real.

I got the impression that it was not Dr Gaddas who wrote the original prescription. So maybe Laura somehow conned the hospital. Perhaps it is just me thinking this the sort of story a Soap would do.

[Perdita]

Think I have seen a picture of Kelly attending her mum's funeral....

[parkerman]

Think I have seen a picture of Kelly attending her mum's funeral....

There are photos of her at Rick's funeral: https://metro.co.uk/2022/03/14/coronation-street-spoilers-death-shock-as-cast-film-funeral-16270908/

[lizann]

Think I have seen a picture of Kelly attending her mum's funeral....

could be ricks funeral but id say laura is sick

[Dennis tanner]

I have no idea why Ed and Aggy had a problem telling Michael the truth.

As for Michael. He's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He doesn't even qualify to be in the drawer

[lizann]

i can't wait for jack to hear about his dead mammy molly and kevin

debbie is a hoot, ott but a hoot

surprised sally isn't back for abi and kevin

[Jadefalcon]

While I am tired of Abi's constant disasters, its a bit rich for Debbie to be so self righteous when not so long ago in many peoples eyes (including Kevin) she was practically Public Enemy number one.

[Perdita]

I wish Kevin had told Jack that Abi cheated because she was grieving, not as an excuse but to teach him that some people sometimes make mistakes they will regret for the rest of their lives when they are going through a very tough time. Does Jack know that his mum cheated on her newly wed husband Tyrone with his dad? :hmm:

[Jadefalcon]

I'm really getting tired of Sarah's dumb smarminess, oh and I see she has basically stolen Adam's flat as was mentioned earlier in the week. Surely it's easier for her to bunk up with David and the rest of the dysfunctional Platts.

[Dennis tanner]

You would think that a solicitor would know about property rights

[Son of Cain]

You would think that a solicitor would know about property rights

He probably does know about probably rights, but may have chosen to allow Sarah to stay in the hope they will get back together. Altho' she is such a spoilt little Princess he might be better off away from her.

[Perdita]

You would think that a solicitor would know about property rights

Probably has basic knowledge but if he has qualified in family law, property law is not his expertise

[Dennis tanner]

A solicitor doesn't know all the law but he knows how to look it up.

[Perdita]

A solicitor doesn't know all the law but he knows how to look it up.

Can take a long time to find the right law rulings .,,, which is why QCs are often used to do the leg work behind the scenes to find what they consider to be the appropriate rulings

[Dennis tanner]

Can take a long time to find the right law rulings .,,, which is why QCs are often used to do the leg work behind the scenes to find what they consider to be the appropriate rulings

Whereas a Police officer on the beat is supposed to make the correct decisions at the time.

[parkerman]

A solicitor doesn't know all the law but he knows how to look it up.

Most solicitors I've come across are totally useless. Some years ago I was so disenchanted with my previous experience of solicitors that I decide to do my own conveyancing when I bought a house. I was introduced to the solicitor who would be acting for my mortgage providers. He asked me why I was doing my own conveyancing. I said because it's not difficult and I wanted to do it myself. He said it would be much better if I handed it over to him because he had been to Law School for five years!

I kindly rejected his offer. As things progressed he was glacially slow and actually made several mistakes which I had to point out to him and which slowed things up even more. He did nothing to improve my opinion of solicitors. Where possible, I have always avoided using a solicitor and have done further conveyancing myself, both buying and selling, as well as other things that might normally be done by a solicitor. Most times all you need is some common sense and I've found I can look up things as well as they can.

[flappinfanny]

I wish Jacob had smacked Steve in the face and done us all a favour. 😡

The scenes with Carla and Sarah were very good. Poor Toyah, she is being made a mug of. I do like how they have turned Tracy into "Normal" from the days when she was a psychotic bitch.

Mrs MacDonald should still be in The Chokey and I will never like her

[Dennis tanner]

In respect of Amy, Steve needs to let her get on with it and pick up the pieces if necessary.

[lizann]

a flat anti climatic end for lydia and adam should have told sarah do one believing a stranger over him

[parkerman]

They certainly don't hang around granting planning permission in Weatherfield. My council takes about 2 or 3 months to grant planning permission, certainly not in under one day!

Also, I hope Maria gets prosecuted for standing outside a polling station on polling day with an umbrella saying, "Vote Maria" on it as that is against the law.

Once again, no political parties involved in a Weatherfield election.

Apart from that excellent research by the Corrie scriptwriting team. Ahem?..

[RogerOver]

Interesting that last night's episode (Wednesday) was set on polling day. Polling day is always on a Thursday.
It must mean Corrie is now set in the future.

[Perdita]

Pathetic ending to Lydia/Adam/Sarah storyline... Adam in no pain whatssoever, despite having broken bones and needing surgery to save his eyesight ... a little blurred vision when Lydia first arrived, no problem after that and able to just leave hospital to go to the police station??? Would have been more realistic if the police had come to hospital to take his statement ...and now Adam and Sarah are getting on like nothing has happened?

[lizann]

sally not back to vote or did she stop her own campaign

[parkerman]

sally not back to vote or did she stop her own campaign

She withdrew several weeks ago.

[lizann]

She withdrew several weeks ago.

thought she would want to vote

[parkerman]

thought she would want to vote

She dropped her campaign because she thought she ought to spend more time with famerlee, so that's what she was doing!

[Jadefalcon]

I've only watched up to the episode where Daniel is trying to contact spoilt princess Sarah about Adam. Why is it in soaps when people reject calls like that did genius Daniel not think in sending an amazing thing called a text message.

[Dennis tanner]

You make good points but I found it a good ending because I was fed up of the storyline

[Dennis tanner]

Why on earth did Windass move that body ??????

[Snagglepus]

Why on earth did Windass move that body ??????
The police were going to search around the original burial place where Bernie had found Rick's watch.

[Snagglepus]

Why was there a need for the bit about Adam needing surgery for a bleed behind his eye when soon after he was out and about as if nothing had happened.
Was it just to fill in a few minutes show time or was it setting the scene for a further complication to arise in the future?

[Perdita]

Why was there a need for the bit about Adam needing surgery for a bleed behind his eye when soon after he was out and about as if nothing had happened.
Was it just to fill in a few minutes show time or was it setting the scene for a further complication to arise in the furture?

None of that made sense, he would not have been able to just walk about into the police station the way he did with broken bones and ribs and a little bit of blurred vision when Lydia first came to see him, after that no problems at all .. scriptwriters must have had a boozy lunch before they wrote that scene...

[Son of Cain]

Switched on tonight and thought I was watching "Confession of a Taxi Driver".

Must be getting desperate for stories when they spend so much time on Tim and Sally's "mucky goings on"

is adam apologising to all past conquests and partners, girlfriends, will eva maria and carla get one?

[RogerOver]

is adam apologising to all past conquests and partners, girlfriends, will eva maria and carla get one?

Get one what? An apology or a 'free lunch' as described by his conquest who humiliated him?

[Dennis tanner]

Can Craig now stop moaning about having to leave the Police Force, It was purely his self righteous decision.

I have no idea why Laura needed to confess to murder? Is this how she wants her daughter to remember her ? If she wanted to protect Windass, she didn't need to do anything

In any case, there will still be DNA searches

[Perdita]

So is Adam taking all his previous conquests to lunch at the Bistro, just across the street from where his wife works? I hope he understands now that not all his exes will have suffered as badly as Lydia did ...

[RogerOver]

Last night we had this dialogue:
Tim: The cardiologist told me I had to refrain from intimacy,
Steve: What? Even self-intimacy?
Tim: Oh yeah, way too risky.

Then people wonder why I watch this great comedy!
I'm sure in previous lives some of the scriptwriters must have written for the Carry On films. I just don't know how they manage to get away with it in a soap-opera.

What an amazing coincidence that Laura should be walking by just as Kelly happened to be talking about Gary and Maria to Simon. Where would Corrie be without amazing eavesdropping coincidences?

[Perdita]

What an amazing coincidence that Laura should be walking by just as Kelly happened to be talking about Gary and Maria to Simon. Where would Corrie be without amazing eavesdropping coincidences?

Typical soapland coincidences though and in this case, I am glad and that does not happen often .. lol So, Laura is in jail and will die there without us seeing any more and Gary walking away free? Always thought he would but is Laura's confession it? No further investigations?

[Dennis tanner]

All secret conversations in soaps are held in public places.

[Jadefalcon]

So Maria has won, her anti car obsession isn't even sensible. The other candidate was talking about a bypass which would or should relieve congestion by diverting traffic from near the town centre. Shame Maria doesn't seem to have the half a brain cell to figure that out as the clue is in the name.

gary killed rick to save sarah just as kylie killed callum to save sarah

[parkerman]

How was Gary allowed in to see Laura while she was under arrest for murder? Especially with no police guard present?

[Dennis tanner]

gary killed rick to save sarah just as kylie killed callum to save sarah
I thought he killed him in self defence even though he has never explained how he managed it.

Windass will not confess. He's just teasing me

[Snagglepus]

Tyrone should have insisted on lowering the house price, then he might be able to buy it himself.

If that's what she wants and if the court allows her to

Good to see another eavesdropping coincidence with Fiz and Phill talking just outside Ty's garage. Keep it up, Corrie.

[lizann]

is fiz remaining working for gary or in the factory and where is evelyn

[Son of Cain]

is fiz remaining working for gary or in the factory and where is evelyn

Where will Evelyn and Cerberus live when Fiz moves?

Where will Evelyn and Cerberus live when Fiz moves?

They'll probably both end up in kennels.

Where will Evelyn and Cerberus live when Fiz moves?

In Ty's flat ... Emma is leaving ;)

As long as Peanut and Cerberus get on, cannot see a problem :D

[Dennis tanner]

As long as Peanut and Cerberus get on, cannot see a problem :D

Now that the asking price has been lowered, Tyronne should have got a mortgage for half the value and paid Fiona off with it.

Can't help thinking that the best thing for Craig and Faye would be if Emma and Jon went to Australia.

Of course it can. This is a soap. In fact overnight actually seems rather a long time.

You're right of course. There will be no problem

[lizann]

Can't help thinking that the best thing for Craig and Faye would be if Emma and Jon went to Australia.

craig and faye could go away too

[Dennis tanner]

craig and faye could go away too

Craig has a contract with the Police that says that he can only work in Wetherfield

[Son of Cain]

Can't help thinking that the best thing for Craig and Faye would be if Emma and Jon went to Australia.

I would be quite happy to see Emma leave, as she has become just too stupid to be credible.
I have not taken to Jon either, there is something about him that is just unreal. The scene with him saying he had met Craig somewhere before, and then insisting (forcing him) he sing the song, came across quite aggressive, and not entirely believeable. Craig should just have said no, especially as in the past be has had the confidence to arrest several of his neighbours, so can be assertive when he needs to be.

Can I help?

I'm not sure? When I wrote the original comment I hadn't received any notifications about new comments for over a week. At first, I just thought that everybody was too busy or nothing worth posting about had occurred. So I went to an old bookmark (from August 2021) & jumped through to March & found the comments I missed & caught myself up. So, I left the message. Dennis answered me & I did get a notification, so I figured the problem was fixed. But I'm still wondering why I didn't get any for over a week? It's weird.

Does anyone know when Australia changed their immigration laws to allow people in without a work visa? I think I must have missed it on the news.

So Kelly didn't say goodbye to her mom but did win that trophy.

Emma goes to Australia, breaks up with John and goes on Married at First sight. Best of luck Emma, they rarely work out.

Miley was adopted by her dad's parents, if I remember correctly and is now in Canada, doubt that she could get her back but this is soapland of course.....

I did think it was all a bit quick, but Emma did live there before and her mother is still there. So perhaps she has the necessary documents.

Emma might have Australian citizenship having lived there before and her mum still lives there. And maybe it is possible to get a work visa while you are there on a tourist visa?

[parkerman]

She might have Australian citizenship that's true.

As an avid watcher of Border Security though, I can say that if she hasn't got Australian citizenship, I am certain that immigration would not let her in if they suspect that she is going to work while she is there! In any case she wouldn't have been able to get a tourist visa that quickly either!

He has not actually made a sale but the prospective client is coming to see Underworld which is a great result, I guess. Up to Michael and Sarah to clinch the deal now and let Kirk have the fat bonus :D

Kirk is not the brightest button in the box and I love that his charm speaking to a stranger on the works telephone made the customer show interest in Underworld. Goes to show that we do not all have to have a university degree to be successful

Is it me or did Sarah seem to have went over the top with the makeup in Mondays episodes.

[Perdita]

Is it me or did Sarah seem to have went over the top with the makeup in Mondays episodes.

I rarely wear eye makeup apart from mascara but some days I do a bit more ..I dare say those that know me with very little eye makeup might think I went over the top if I turn up with full eye makeup ... Female thing, we just feel like dressing up at times, if not with clothes it is with make-up :)

[Dennis tanner]

Nice to see everyone working on a Bank Holiday. We know it was Good Friday because Billy said it was.

Little Kevin got the chance to say Calm Down but not to repeat it.

Gary reflected that it was the 3rd time he had attended Rick's funeral.

It wasn't that, I think it was a bit of everything, the hair and makeup just seemed....'off' for lack of a better term as if it was slightly over the top.

When Sarah said things were tight and there were comments about Sarahs dress and shoes 'being nice' I got the impression at first that was going to be a sniping comment. Basically, "Oh things are tight but you can afford new fancy clothes", rather than sucking up. Maybe I'm just cynical. :)

Orders of 500 upwards? At the speed those buggers in the factory work, combined with the size of the workforce, how many centuries is that order going to take.

Where would they sleep? His flat upstairs isn't big enough for 3 adults & an infant.

I haven't seen the episodes (I'm 12 days behind) that show Abi getting custody of the baby BUT that poor baby would be better off somewhere else! Abi is a huge trainwreck!

Mrs Crawshaw said that Nicky should have declared it on her application but also admitted that she more than likely would not have got the job if she had. I feel sorry for Nicky, trying to improve her situation and Max has ruined it. I doubt he will realise just what he has done. Please, Daniel, dump Daisy, it was none of her business what Daniel did with who before they got together and to demand he keeps away from her when they are working together is stupid.

Max probably does have an idea what he did, it's just that the malicious little slug doesn't give a damn. All the people talking about it in the Rovers haven't exactly led pure life's either.

The wonderful thing about Soapland businesses is that their situations and fortunes can change to suit storylines. Particularly pubs who go from looking for special events, and theme nights, to bring in more punters, to giving away free champagne on a regular basis.

Another thing is that Mrs Crawshaw said she likely would not have hired Nicky, yet not so long ago it was strongly implied that she was coming onto Daniel. Not outright shown as such, but she was a bit tipsy at the time, but regardless that wouldn't exactly have been deemed as appropriate.

Shona really needs to totally deprive Max of any internet access, put the laptop behind a password or something, the smug little prick needs taught a lesson.

[bratface]

Thanks for the info. But I don't think Max feels bad at all. The only time he expresses any remorse is when he gets caught. If he genuinely felt bad he would get up in front of the whole street (plus everyone at school) & admit all the horrible things he has done. Both Max & Hope need some serious professional help. No more coddling either one!

Daniel, who is basically a good man, has made two mistakes.

1. He accidently caused young Turner to fall down the stairs.

2. He has given young Turner far too many chances

[Jadefalcon]

God the street is full of hypocrites.

Max is a loathsome little troll who needs something broken, like his neck. Even at the end of Wednesday's episode he was still wishing for bad things to happen to Daniel and David wasn't exactly discouraging him.

Simon is another little scumbag. What is it with some of these people and the stupid faces they put on. Simon trying to 'look ard' when he has been a little **** for a good part of his life.

Leanne is another one who really has no room to talk, glad that Toyah told her where to go.

[Son of Cain]

I will never think it was a good idea to replace the old Max with this new Max. They did not just give him a new head but a whole new personality. I could never see old Max behaving the way this one does. They should have given these storylines to Simon, as I would certainly have found it much easier to accept this behavior from him.

Daniel actually went to college though, didn't he? As for Nikki, I looked up the requirements to be a TA in the UK & this is the gist:

"For entry-level positions, you'll need to have basic literacy and numeracy skills (GCSE or equivalent) and ideally some experience of working with children. Although you don't need a degree to become a teaching assistant, having a degree can be an advantage as it shows a competent level of skills."

As so many of the restaurants have obvious jokey names like Roy's Rolls, Prima Donna, Speed Daal, I wonder if it was a scriptwriting joke that a chef in a restaurant is called Stu (stew).
