Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - V

[Perdita]

Why didn't Ryan keep running? Why did he stop and allow Craigy to arrest him ?

His answer is to just take the money off Debbie and fly out to do his DJ gig, never to return till the Police have forgot that he is wanted.

The biggest mystery is why he is out on bail.

He is a Connor ... from what I have seen none of them are the brightest sparks in the tool box :nono:

[Perdita]

Eddie with both hands bandaged in hospital, now back at home, not a sign of sore hands...

[Son of Cain]

That must have been some might at the Bistro if the insurance payout is going to cover the cost of saving all her businesses and paying ?30k compensation to Ed as well as a payout to Ryan....Yes, I realise she has the money twice as she's still got the actual takings, but even so.

I think they said that Leanne had not taken the takings to the bank for a few days, but even so as you say it must have been some night.
If Debbie could not pay Ed his compo, but now writes him out a cheque is it going to clear. Surely she is not going to deposit the money from the robbery, will that not look suspicious. The whole story is nonsense Debbie dealing with the whole matter herself without involving a lawyer, or getting them to sign any documents. Aggie could be back next week asking for more.
Ed's hands seen to be healed already, does he deserve 30,000.

[lizann]

had the bistro a gambling licence to run a casino?

The thing is, an "insurance job" usually means torching the place and losing everything, that's when you make the big bucks. Claiming insurance for one night - or even one week's - takings is chicken feed in the great scheme of things.

[Son of Cain]

had the bistro a gambling licence to run a casino?

Don't think it was run like a proper casino with people betting using money. So probably did not need a licence as it was a "fun night". Think they were using chips or tokens, with the person with the most tokens at the end of the night winning a cash prize. Dev said something to Tim along those lines on Friday or Monday. As usual these things are never explained in detail, just a general idea, sort mentioned in passing

Now you come to mention it, I think you're right. Which means there was even less money in the safe than I was thinking.

[lizann]

did players pay an entrance fee, no food ordered so how lots of money that night taken in

Well summed up. It was nonsense

[Son of Cain]

did players pay an entrance fee, no food ordered so how lots of money that night taken in

These schemes are never fully explained, just talked about in vague terms. I am guessing that players had to buy chips or tokens, in order to play. Presumably everyone started with the same amount of chips, otherwise you could win by buying more chips that everyone else. Not really a well thought out storyline. Like the robbery, Ryan broke off the handle of the lock, after using the combination to open the safe, which meant that when the safe was examined all the tumblers in the lock would still be aligned, so it would be obvious that the safe was opened using the combination. If the safe had still been locked I am not sure if snapping off the handle would allow the safe to be opened. Even a Connor should know that the CCTV should have a back up battery to allow it to continue recording if power is cut off.

I think Aggie was just looking for an excuse to jump at a lawsuit. Her and Beth should team up, they would be the 'Compo duo'.

There is a case for compo even though it's nothing to do with Beth. I don't recall how they arrived at a figure of thirty thousand pounds

Thanks, Lizann. I remember the discussion about the grounding of the radiators. But as I haven't seen that episode I didn't realize that Ed was injured that badly.

He wasn't that bad. He just couldn't use his phone for a few days

From the last few comments here (not just yours) I'm getting a distinct impression that you folks don't like Aggie & Ed?

[Perdita]

I like them :)

[bratface]

I like them :)

Me too (but not Michael, what a dolt he is). But someone here was saying that they thought Aggie & Ed were trying to scam Debbie?

[Son of Cain]

I like them :)

I quite like Ed but not too fond of Aggie. She is a bit too pushy and bossy for me. I wonder if she had been nicer to Grace, she would not have scammed them into giving her the house.

[Son of Cain]

He wasn't that bad. He just couldn't use his phone for a few days

Not that bad? - Not being able to use a phone, for some people, it could not get any worse.

[Perdita]

I doubt it, Grace was after money from the moment she met Michael and his family. Did not want to take care of her daughter but happy to take money so she could push off...

[Snagglepus]

I quite like Ed but not too fond of Aggie. She is a bit too pushy and bossy for me. I wonder if she had been nicer to Grace, she would not have scammed them into giving her the house.

What happened over the house, I thought they were letting Grace live there rent free then she left with a 20,000 pound pay off for baby Glory.
Not heard the house mentioned since.

[Son of Cain]

I doubt it, Grace was after money from the moment she met Michael and his family. Did not want to take care of her daughter but happy to take money so she could push off...

You may be right but I did not like the way Aggie was down on Grace from the start, like no one, particularly Grace, was good enough for her little boy.

[parkerman]

Why all this emphasis on keeping Nick happy with the nonsense story? It's not up to him to "throw the book"at Ryan. Ryan's already been arrested and is out on bail. What Nick thinks is neither here nor there.

[Dennis tanner]

Can't agree with that. Grace was always going to be a bad un.

[Dennis tanner]

Exactly. His comments were totally confusing.

[Jadefalcon]

It's Beth I have more of a problem with, she's ALWAYS looking for an excuse to con money out of people.

[Dennis tanner]

It's Beth I have more of a problem with, she's ALWAYS looking for an excuse to con money out of people.

Beth is a troublemaker. Pity she's not like her husband.

[Perdita]

So once again poor Stu does not get the opportunity to explain what happened with the girl and why he was in prison. Hope we will find out before soon though

[Snagglepus]

It's Beth I have more of a problem with, she's ALWAYS looking for an excuse to con money out of people.

And Bernie, wanting compensation for Paul for the trauma he suffered seeing Ed being thrown on the bed when his wrench backfired.

[Snagglepus]

Most probably took the blame for someone else, maybe his daughter.

That is what I am thinking. I hope we will find out soon and that they do not drag this out for too long.

[Jadefalcon]

And Bernie, wanting compensation for Paul for the trauma he suffered seeing Ed being thrown on the bed when his wrench backfired.

It's Bernie I was thinking of. She's talking about Pauls compensation, what's the bet he wouldn't see a penny.

Also, Dev trying to take all the credit at the Bistro, so typical of his ego.

[Dennis tanner]

Most probably took the blame for someone else, maybe his daughter.

That doesn't explain why his daughter wants nothing to do with him.

[Perdita]

That doesn't explain why his daughter wants nothing to do with him.

Because she feels very guilty for him having done time in prison instead of her

[Dennis tanner]

Because she feels very guilty for him having done time in prison instead of her

That would be a strange attitude IMO

[lizann]

she could have blocked it out if young believing stu really guilty

[Snagglepus]

This is Weatherfield remember, where all manner of absurdities happen.

[Snagglepus]

Aadi 'Are you ok?'
Kelly 'Yeah yeah, no.'

A short while later...
Aadi ' Are you ok?'
Kelly 'Yeah no.'

Is Kelly both ok and not ok at the same time?
I'm confused.

[parkerman]

Good to see the Weatherfield Health Service is still way ahead of the U.K. Emergency appointment with a dentist in the evening. OK.

[Dennis tanner]

I am a big fan of Aadi and have been for some time now.

[Son of Cain]

I am trying to think how they can bring this story with Stu to a satisfactory and believable conclusion. He was convicted of murder, he confessed to the crime, but now says he did not do it. He may well be covering for someone, but unless that person admits to it, how can he prove he did not do it. Or are jasmeen and others eventually just going to take his word for it that he is innocent?

[Son of Cain]

Was Ryan always so stupid? Does he not think the police will already have looked at the CCTV camera in the alley, or did he think they would just take Debbie's word for it that it was not working. If his mad scheme was to work, would they not think it strange that a new recording suddenly appeared showing a gunman. Is it even possible that someone who is too stupid to stand on a ladder without falling off is likely to be able to fiddle the date on the CCTV recording?.

So the police accepted Ryan's story that he was coerced into the robbery by gunmen sent by Ray Crosby.

Presumably then, they have arrested Ray Crosby and will be prosecuting him and will be using Ryan as their key witness in the court case.

is ray still in prison?

[Perdita]

is ray still in prison?

He should be, think he got quite a lengthy prison sentence for the sexual assault on Faye.

[Dennis tanner]

Stu was probably innocent but I can't believe that he was denied a solicitor. Even 27 years ago, it was standard practice.

[Perdita]

I thought Stu might have covered for his daughter but now I realise she would have been too young so I think he covered for his ex-wife who might have killed the waitress out of jealousy and Stu did not want his daughter to grow up with a mum in prison... Stu would have had a solicitor but he confessed so nothing any legal representative could have done to defend him.

[Perdita]

Why does Stu not sit down in the cafe and write a letter to Yasmeen and explain that way what really happened? :hmm:

[Son of Cain]

Why does Stu not sit down in the cafe and write a letter to Yasmeen and explain that way what really happened? :hmm:

There is no guarantee she would read it.

Bit disappointed that Stu's story turned out to be a standard "I was fitted up, guv", hoping for something more complex than that.

Did I notice a glint of interest in P C Tinker's eye, will he somehow prove Stu's innocence?

[parkerman]

He said he tried to retract his statement but they wouldn't let him. So there was plenty a decent solicitor could have got his teeth into.

[parkerman]

is ray still in prison?

Yes, but he could still have masterminded the so-called gunmen who supposedly forced Ryan into carrying out the robbery and, if the police accepted Ryan's story, he could still be arrested in prison and sent for trial.

Of course, in the wonderful world of Weatherfield justice all this will be conveniently forgotten.

A solicitor could have prevented the treatment he said he received which caused him to confess.

Someone REALLY needs to tell Leanne to talk to people in a semi civilised way. I'm surprised one of the Bistro customers hasn't tipped their food over her. She talks to everyone as if they're sub human.

Please, please PLEASE, get rid of Spider soon. Preferably involving pest control and a flamethrower. Going by that newspaper its obvious he's more of an attention seeker than anything else, and Toyah really annoyed me harping about the 'fascist' police.

Drop her in Franco's Spain, Nazi Germany, Pinochets Chile, Mussolini's Italy..then she might find something to complain about.

I would suggest a rolled up newspaper, but he is probably too big for that. But be careful with that flamethrower in these drought conditions.

He doesn't appear to have a problem getting money. Do he and his chums get protection money to 'go away' ?

[Jadefalcon]

I have a feeling that Spider is a bit of a champagne socialist. He goes on about the evils of capitalism etc, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's the type that goes around with the latest iPhone, and I guarantee if Toyah asks him to stay around, he'll probably make a few token 'objections'. I'd like to know what he's up to.

I'm also betting that something is going to happen to that savings account money.

Well, I know Corri is a dowdy street, but the number of Net curtains hanging on Windows in the 21st century, Really??

Surely some of the more "snobby" residents would be installing some window dressings that are a bit more "with it"

I would have thought Sally might have gone for Window Shutters.

Guess I am just sick of the miserable street.

[Son of Cain]

I would not blame Faye if she killed Craig.
Helping Faye is one thing but constantly telling her what is best for her and making decisions for her is not the way to go.

I cannot say I have ever noticed the net curtains. When you live on a street of terraced houses without gardens you need something to stop people looking in. Even the other side of the street has very short front gardens, so the same problem. Shutters when closed make the room very dark, but if Sally was told they have them in Spain and the South of France, I am sure she would have them fitted tomorrow.

[Jadefalcon]

Stephen is back to being annoying with the way he was talking to Adam, not to mention Leanne sniping at Adam.

"Adam Barlow has been with everyone".

Rich, coming from the former lady of negotiable affection, and even if you ignore that, she is certainly no shrinking violet. I am really surprised the Bistro manages to stay open when that is her attitude to everyone. If Leanne ever questions Debbie about the finances perhaps Debbie should shoot back that if Leanne acted like a human being to people they might get more customers.

I know it's a good thing to highlight domestic abuse and have a storyline about it, but I can't help thinking the fact it is all based on a false premise in this instance does detract from the story and leaves the whole question open to doubt when the man concerned can point, with justification in this case, to being falsely accused.

They already did the abuse story with Yasmeen and Geoff, perhaps they should have left it at that and just made this a story about false imprisonment and its effect on the family (Stu's wife and daughter) with maybe a corruption storyline thrown in and not dragged Yasmeen back into it.

I agree that there is something not quite right with this story. I think they trying to show that Yasmeen was so damaged by her experience with Geoff that it had affected her future relationships with any man. I dont want to say she is overreacting but she does seem to be getting into a terrible state when there is no immediate threat to her safety. Stu on the other hand could show more sensitivity and stop trying to make any contact with her when he sees how much it upsets her, or at least wait until he has some proof of his innocence.

Very much agreed, the storyline with Geoff was played very well, but it has got to the stage she is totally unwilling to hear anyone out. I can kinda see her point, but still, as a storyline I feel this is getting dragged out a bit.

No doubt it runs fine on all platforms, Windows and Mac as well as desktops, laptops, tablets, smart phones (which all need different programming). And that all the hyperlinks (external and internal) work and proper security is in place for people ordering on line. Oh, and for those people ordering on line, it's all set up for receiving payment by all the various cards and PayPal etc.

I don't know why I'm so concerned really, I'm sure Max had it all under control in his one day.

[Dennis tanner]

I am confused by Stu's original arrest and trial. He made a confession because he was browbeaten by the Police. When he was falling asleep during very long interviews, the Police knocked his chair away so that he kept falling on the floor. Are we to believe that his solicitor allowed this to happen ?

The solicitors had the nerve to charge ?2K for documents they clearly have no interest in.

Oh, and for those people ordering on line, it's all set up for receiving payment by all the various cards and PayPal etc.

I don't know why I'm so concerned really, I'm sure Max had it all under control in his one day.

After reading your post, I will not be buying my knickers from underworld.

[Son of Cain]

she at least was looking at the case files unlike adam

is stus ex wife the killer which is why she wants him to stop

Adam would look at the files if someone was paying him to.

[Son of Cain]

Steve? Dopey Steve?

No, not dopey Steve, he is too busy trying to get his roof fixed.

[Son of Cain]

Is my memory playing tricks on me, or was Sarah not in charge of Underworld before, and if my memory is right, did things not go too well? So why does she think she would do any better now.

[Katy]

I think I need to move to Coronation Street - the jobs you can get there with no qualifications! It's great!

Hmm, rings a bell, was it because Nick was part owner?
Also Alya had something to do with it at one time too.

OK scriptwriters, we get it that Yasmeen's neighbours on Coronation Street do not approve of Stu and believe he is a murderer, no need to have Dev, Tim, Elaine walk past her house every time Stu steps outside... :rolleyes:

What made me angry was the likes of Bernie I think it was acting all high and mighty. And who do these people think they are telling Stu to get off the street, they don't own it.

Also, can Gemma not talk without her mouth being bigger than Pac Mans?

Sarah must really be dumb falling for Stephens smooth talk. I hope Carla catches on to him, and Shona certainly doesn't seem to trust him

[Dennis tanner]

Stephen should just be honest with his mom. I am sure that Audrey would help him.

Leanne channelling her inner Pauline Fowler.

Anyone who's a poster here regularly will probably know that I've no time for Leanne, but to be honest I agree with her in this instance. This whole Spider storyline has really ticked me off, he was irritating back in the day and hasn't improved, not to mention his associate is even worse.

[Son of Cain]

I am still thinking Spider could be an undercover police officer.

[parkerman]

So Craig gets clocked on the head by a flying bottle and his colleagues just let Carla look after him....

Not an actual officer but possibly an informant

no sally or maria for the protest

spider an informat or undercover copper?

So why did Sam rush off to post his letter when he was told it was nearly seven o' clock when the post box quite clearly showed that the last post was at 5:30?

A waste of Police resouces I reckon. Griff doesn't make a secret about what he is doing. Did Spider ever go on the beat or was he fast traced into his current position?

He's a detective constable and it is not clear at present what case he is working on. He was warned about sleeping with a suspect by the officer on the Imran case, but he said Toyah has nothing to do with the case he is working on. However he has now been asked to find out what he can from Toyah about Imran's death, but he refused to do so because he "knows" Toyah didn't kill him.

He did but we do not know yet why Toyah crashed the car, it will be revealed soon whether she meant to kill him, herself or both or whether it was an accident. Imran's mum and the police are not convinced it was an accident so they want to know more of what happened

did toyah admit crashing the car on purpose to spider or leanne already

[bratface]

Toyah is on trial for murder next week.

Oh no. I guess I'll have to watch those episodes.

I read in one of the UK tabloids (I can't remember which one) that people were speculating that Griff might be Elsie's father? Although didn't Elsie go back to social services after they brought Alfie home?

Personally, I hope the jury find Leanne guilty and put her away for life.

Not fussed about Toyah.

According to the article in the link, there have been 15 total people responsible for murders on the street.

IMO Toyah was guilty of manslaughter but the jury was not asked to consider this verdict.....Ridiculous.

It's a great shame that there are no other solicitors in the Manchester area that Stu could go to

[Son of Cain]

Will Jenny actually leave? I do not think she will.

Why did Sharon feel the need to tell Kelly that Gary killed her father? After all Rick never treat her very. well

[mysangry]

Just caught up with the "drama" of the past few episodes, and I like Griff, so refreshing to see a storyline that is going against the "sheep".

We live in a world where not everyone follows the population and good of Corra to try and show a different side of what is happening in life.

I found his comments interesting and had no idea what a cabal was.
I applaud Coronation street for teaching me something that I did not know about and very refreshing?!

It simply doesn't make sense. No way does that house have five bedrooms and when Dylan first returned in 2020 it was mentioned how Todd was giving up his room and would sleep on a blowup bed in the front room.

Kelly really should stay home a bit more and watch TV crime dramas, then she would know that you do not pay a hit man by bank transfer on your mobile phone, so it can be traced back to you

Altho I do not know how she managed to do this, as she asked him for his bank numbers, and I do not recall him giving them to her. .

[Snagglepus]

You can transfer money by phone but with my bank it is a bit more complex than what we saw. She would need to input his sort code and account number. We did not really see this. You would also be asked to confirm, and enter your pass code, with amounts over ?1000 my bank requires the use of facial recognition before it completes the transfer.

So, the chap who kidnapped her gets a shed load of money without having to lift a finger, unless Kelly wants to complain to the Police that he took her money under false pretences

If it was a bank transfer to someone you haven't transferred money to before, my bank would text a special code to input to confirm it's you. No facial recognition needed.

[bratface]

Was it done by phone? I'm not up to date on what phones can do now with 'apps' and all that... but it looked like she put her phone next to his, can they transfer money like that?

There are a few apps that let you transfer money that way. BumpPay, Visa has an app, PayPal, Venmo, etc.

[Son of Cain]

If it was a bank transfer to someone you haven't transferred money to before, my bank would text a special code to input to confirm it's you. No facial recognition needed.

Probably depends what bank you are with, my bank recently introduced facial recognition for amounts over ?1,000. Think I also get a one time code if it is someone new. Every time I use it they seem to have a new level of security. Certainly not as quick and easy as Kelly did it.

Dumped for his own benefit. I liked Kelly but she lacked common sense.

We have 2 suepects in Police custody but the main star witness has burgered off to who knows where.

The other star witness will find himself in difficulties if the crims tell the truth or if he tries to give evidence against them.

All things considered it was still a good episode.

I think Gary will get away with it. Even if the two crims say Gary he killed Rick, he can deny it, and with Laura being dead she cannot recant her confession. Probably any forensic evidence tying him to the crime will be long gone.

Good job Taggart is not attached to Weatherfield Police Station, he would be hoarse, the number of times he would have to say "There's been a muuurrrder"

Well, Leo is pushed into a convenient place rubbish bin, (only one in the alley!!)
When Stephen looks at him, ohh yes blood trickling from the ear, EYES OPEN
But when Stephen hauls the body into the van Leo's eyes are shut???

So how does a dead man close his eyes? Hmm not dead then lol

In fact if this was a James Bond film, Leo would have sprang up and finished Stephen off, but sadly we have to endure more of Stephen.

Maybe they should do us all a favour, drive to the canal, have a fight fall in and drown.

Solution both kill the other and we don't have to see either again yeaaaaaa

Your script sounds more exciting than the their's.

Perhaps Stephen closed his eyes, it is often mentioned in murder plots that the killer feels the victim is watching them and it makes them feel uncomfortable.

Sad to see Evelyn gone, but it is only for a short period, loved her having ago at everyone before departing. This Stephen storyline and the CGI effects so not Corrie, the show has lost its soul and with EastEnders being on the up only makes the contrast more noticeable.

He is not a real killer and so stressed out, he does not consider these things, he just wants everyone to think Leo is in Canada and that is the only way he can give the impression. But Detective Craig Tinker will be the one to solve the crime, I am sure :D

Tracy. What?s she got to do with it? Stu?s daughter is Bridget and his ex wife is Lucy. Am I missing something ?

Nothing. lizann was making the point that Dev and others don't want Stu on the street because he is a convicted murderer and take every opportunity to verbally attack him in the street, yet they have no problem with Tracy living on the street and she is also a murderer.

I wish that somebody in a fit of temper would actually say that to Tracy when she is kicking off about somebody, preferably in front of many other residents just to make them all aware of her past.

Oh, so do I!! All Ken says is "Oh Tracey", as Deirdre did. AND she lives in his house with Amy ... and Steve? He needs to kick her out. Wait till she sees Ken with Wendy Crozier.

i find summer and her 3 daddies nauseating

Poor Summer can't go to the Hospital alone so she doesn't bother going

I wonder if Adam Barlow would consider employing Dee Dee then she could stay on the street for a while. I bet the script writers have never thought of that....

You're right. Adam having a vacancy is just a coincidence

I think most of the older residents know about Tracey and some of the newer ones must have been told by about her. I think the trouble is that when creating these storylines, each plot is handled as a separate story, and they do think about the past, and how it should link up to the present.
