I agree ... I just fear that like with any character so far they will give her a personality transplant ...
I hope not, I do not think she is best matched with Seb either
wise true words from kirk even if does use home alone :p
when did billy become a vicar again, his collar is back on?
I really would have thought that the days of walk in freezers that cannot be opened from the inside are over ... the Bistro is too modern not to have that safety feature ...:wall::wall::wall:

The drunk acting from Kate actress was very bad
Did Ali tell Sophie and Kevin to call him doctor when he is in the hospital checking on Jack unofficially, I thought they were friends and neighbours and his name is Alex
I am glad Eccles is fine again and now off to the beach with Ken and Simon
Michelle gets even more annoying in the episodes she dominates

Alex has said he wants to be called Ali when he first arrived. Agree with the other comments ..

When Ali's placement at th GPS finished I think he may have got a placement/job at the hospital. Sometimes they leave patients notes at the end of the bed, I have certainly read my own notes, these may not contain all Information about your condition, there is probably a more comprehensive set stored somewhere more secure.
Usually just what has been done. Injection, medication given. Certainly not anything about the actual condition and the prognosis or any sensitive information for anybody to see.
That was a real violent slap Sophie did and was unrepentant about .. hope she gets taken to book over it and also after being taken to book reported to the police.
Marie wanting to buy half the salon, I dont blame her but surely the business is always going to David. But then stealing her employees customers ! I got involved in that fight between two parties who I was a customer they squabbled over me like this "you cut his hair no you cut his hair!

Not only is Maria stealing from Audrey's business but I am sure she is not keeping records of her private work and will be able to declare it to HMRC....

Unlike others I think Ryan is an annoying little slimeball.
Sophie has a cheek asking Rana to steal records. I get the feeling if Rana did do it and it didn't show what she wanted she'd say the records are faked.
I know we're meant to understand Craig, but does anyone else find Corries representation of his OCD annoying. Plus, the example they showed the other day, flicking the kettle switch on and off rapidly would I thought have been more liable to cause an accident.
did liz really expect toyah to rehire her?
fair balls to corrie having jack lose the foot showing true worse scenario of sepsis
Wish they would not blame each other for being responsible .. as the docs said, sepsis is difficult to diagnose and even if Kevin had been home on the day Jack still would have gone poorly :(

I agree, OCD is based around the concept that a person suffering is having bad thoughts in a continuous loop that they cant control. In Craigs case and Corrie didnt explain, he probably couldn't convince himself the items were switched off. I once had to place an Iron in the middle of the garden before I went out because I couldnt convince myself it was switched off. My sister said to me recently "oh you dont have OCD because you dont compulsively clean". I do however always have to be touching wood or the world will end, but hey, I diagnosed my sister as a total manic maniac years ago bless her :rotfl: she must have something loose she let me live with her for the last two years.:lol:
Good acting from person playing Kevin
could sean not ask toyah to crash on pub couch
i can see ryan and sarah happening

Maria is not my favourite person, but I'd say she's right, Audrey can't just walk in willy nilly when she feels like, a tenant has an expected degree of privacy. Granted, Maria isn't being totally innocent either but there is a principle there.
How can Alya accuse Carla of personally doctoring the orders when she was so quick to change the locks?

The guy who appears to be scamming Gail (from what others have said):
Now call me pedantic, but I noticed he sent an SMS to a number starting 07731, whereas in the Ofcom guide the mobile numbers for drama use should be in the range 07700 900000 to 900999
IIRC correctly, someone else used an 'out of range' mobile number a few weeks back too.

Audrey committed a criminal act entering Marias flat with her key. Maria may be breaking a civil contract stealing Audrey's customers , but a land lady just letting herself into a tenants flat ..wow.. Maria should of called the cops.. as for sacking her verbally while in her home .. it comes under harassment in the tenancy agreement.
I noted that Audrey had gone back to using paper over the computer when she was losing her customers.
is liz back in the medical centre working?
how quick was sally able to get con man duncan the council money of 40k, she is a mayor who is active
Good to see Roy advising Toyah instead of just Carla for a change. They got on well years ago, when Toyah worked in the cafe.
Audrey claiming Marias front door is hers to do what she likes with.. who wrote this bull.. Verbally telling Maria she must be gone in two weeks.. total smelly stuff .. She can give Maria one month notice to quit, but good luck getting her out within six months I say as Maria can claim harassment from her land lady. Audry who would need to get the courts involved and pay for bailiffs, in the mean time Maria can be in her property rent free.
The horrible cabal after the baby. Peter the snake now joining in their insidious plan to destroy the kids life because thats what Aiden would of wanted, his kid raised by his geratric ill grand pas and a wife he dosent love but is keeping because it suits his plans.

The only good thing about Corrie at the moment is Tim, such a loyal good hearted clever person who I hope the show does not change, Joe who plays him as always been a good actor, able to range effectively from comedy to drama and is great as Tim
I did not understand how and why Tim and Steve were cleaners in Duncan's fake office :confused:
I think Sally as always liked the attention from a man and was sweet talked by Duncan
The Connors are shameful disgusting vile individuals and shame on Peter for helping them :angry: I hope Roy kicks out Carla

They were looking for proof that Duncan is a scammer so needed access to his office. Guess they conveniently found a cleaner's trolley and decided to pretend to be working there to get into the office eventually
Why on earth would a Council release such a large amount of money into a private individual's bank account without checking first especially as it was such a rush transaction?

God, I had to cringe at Sally and her Hyacinth moment...."I'll sign with my good pen, I like to sign important stuff with my good pen".
Sorry, I don't feel sorry for her at all, her ego and her utter snobbery have caught up with her big time. I feel sorry for Tim, Sophie and others around her, but Sally really is too stupid/snobby at times.
What the hell is Peter up to, I know he has a grudge against Toyah now, but even Carla looked surprised at him.

peter wants back in carla's knickers
I don't think they would fit him.
Carla just needs to stay away from the factory completely, regardless of how Alya is running it, and should refuse to get involved in any of the petty battles among the staff, like when Fizz was sacked, for example. She sold Aidan her shares because she didn't want to be involved any more so why is she now suddenly interested in the underwear industry again? I know Aidan has since died and so much has changed but it just looks like she wants back in so that Alya can be pushed out. She was never a good businesswoman in the first place so maybe she should just get herself a different job.
And I don't think Roy would support her in either of her current battles. He's friends with Alya's grandmother and I doubt he would want a baby to be separated from her mother, plus he remembers what she went through with Peter the first time round. If he takes Carla side after finding out what she's been up to, it will strain disbelief far too much for me.

She was and is a good business woman who kept Underworld going for many years and the reason she wants the factory back is to keep in the Connor family. Alya would never had a look in for many years, if ever, if Aidan had not decided to kill himself. I am surprised Alya can keep it going with just Sarah as PA ..

Wasn't there a DIY/hardware shop in the street before. How many such shops do you see in the real world now, they cannot compete with the big DIY chains. Just relying people needing the odd item would never be financially viable, they will still go the place on the ring road when doing bigger projects. - They are doomed to fail.

Doomed, Captain Mainwairing, doomed.
Joking aside, I agree on that. The turnover you'd need to make a shop like that pay wouldn't be easy at all. It is soap-land though. 95% of the customers you see in the other shops are the characters.
I seem to remember Sally had a hardware shop years ago but it burned down. I agree that Brian and Cathy's shop can't last - it'll just be for "comedy" storylines, I'd imagine, given the characters involved.
I'd like to see it succeed of course, but that will involve the two of them doing research and seeing what services and products they can offer that the big stores don't, and the Street is not exactly realistic when it comes to business.

There are still a few, we have one in my town, but usually when the lease comes up for renewal and the rent increases and they close down. - Pity Kathy got rid of all her clutter, might have been some stuff amongst it she could have sold in the shop. Do you have electricity in IOW yet, if not candlelight can be so romantic.
:rotfl: We have one of those bods that comes round and lights the oil street lights of an evening.:rotfl:
Oh you could of hit the nail on the head there, Kathy is very likely to start buying loads of stock/junk and cluttering up the place with it so it becomes more a storage unit than a shop.
Oh and of course people suffering with her condition just hate to sell any of it.

Secondly, Eva soon got onto the TV with her appeal (only in 'Soapland' I guess?)

At least Johnny has come to his senses but he didn't need to be so cruel to Liz. He was nasty to Jenny when he thought he was in love with Liz and now he's doing the same to her.

Peter asking about the baby to the women he plotted against to get her baby off her ... class.
So who has bought half the pub?
Hope Eileen kicks out Tracys new best pal, talk about weeing on the carpets where you live :ninja:
toyah's half of the pub is also for sale
gemma needs to close her mouth when eating
liz and johnny should both be charged
deep down jenny knows more happened between liz and johnny than talking
Totally off topic ... but have you ever tried to tell someone to keep their mouth closed when they chew, not to invade your personal space and talk right in your face or at a table not spread their elbows so wide that no one can sit within 15 metres of them .. it rarely goes well :lol:

Eileen shut up. I wish Tracey would hit her over the head with a vase/ash tray object thing or just smack her in the gob with a pack of frozen peas.
Jenny (Sally Ann Matthews) is brilliant right now and makes her scenes look effortess. Sally Ann is the best thing the only thing good about this show right now. One thing we can be grateful for Stuart the hat Blackburn for bringing Jenny back.

Regardless of whether or not Eva tells the police there was a misunderstanding it will be up to the police and the CPS to decide if Johnny is prosecuted.

what happened to abi changing to get her kids back, now i dont know if it steve or tracy she fancies
i know beth and kirk moved to a new flat and wanted a party but in the flat where aidan killed himself not good
craig losing it
sarah wants ryan to take bethany to ibiza, the same ryan who was blackmailing her for money
Oh I see now, Bethanies disappearance will be put down to her going with Ryan, the same guy who black mailed her mum but suddenly thats all forgotten.
If my land lady used her key and walked into my flat, id call the police, Audrey would be in so much trouble, forget her kicking her tenant out she would be up in the courts first. Ad to that harassment and she would be lucky to get Maria out this century even if she didnt pay the rent.
Why has Sebs mum still got a roof in Irenes sp? house after she took sides with Tracy against her.?
Jadefalcon
24-07-2018, 00:04
Even David who is usually pretty ambivalent to things like this seems to think Audrey is acting stupid at best. She has no right to just walk in like that unless there was real suspicion of an emergency (ie smoke billowing out the window and no response). Who knows what Maria could be doing, she could be in a bath or shower, she could be .. 'entertaining', but even if she's just slobbing out reading a magazine or watching TV the point is that as a tenant she has the right to privacy.
what has happened to beth, now annoying yolk unbearable unlikeable
She always was. And that scene with Abi cutting a lock of hair off a random guy was ridiculous. Why is it an emergency for Tracy yet funny if it happens to an extra?

So Audrey is all for going by the book with the tenancy agreement when it comes to Maria running a business, but not going by same agreements when it comes to her barging in.
Maria should get the locks changed and bill Audrey, oh and while we're at it, she should also mention to Adam about Audreys habit of just walking in.

Because Ali is on Corrie pay-roll, an extra to play a doctor would have cost more ;)
I also can't understand why Kayla was practically shouting at him while he was upset and no-one came over to investigate.
Bit surprised that Jess did just accept Craig and Bethany's statement that all was a misunderstanding ..surely it was very obvious that all of them were very upset and there would have been signs where Bethany was handcuffed ....
I'm hoping she had realised that there really was something wrong and will keep investigating... Forgiveness is one thing (and that would be hard enough right after the imprisonment) but Kayla has still committed a crime, or rather, several crimes, no matter how much Bethany feels sorry for her.

The ending of this story line felt rushed and ill thought out. Yes Bethany had been attacked and held against her will, but for the most it was Craig who had endured the most of the mental violence He is never going to suddenly recover from this and I feel the girl inflicting it needs a lot of mental health care so she dosent do this kind of thing again. In the last scenes she was clearly beyond rational thought and able to inflict physical violence to make some say something she manically wanted to hear.
Still wondering where the grand in cash that appeared in Sally's bank account came from and why on earth Tim donated it to Kevin thinking that it will never be asked back by any bank. They do require it back and will come after you if you dont do that.

In the last scenes she was clearly beyond rational thought and able to inflict physical violence to make some say something she manically wanted to hear.
Still wondering where the grand in cash that appeared in Sally's bank account came from and why on earth Tim donated it to Kevin thinking that it will never be asked back by any bank. They do require it back and will come after you if you dont do that.
Think Duncan has something to do with the money ..

Roy and Carla get on at least despite some disagreements. I think Roy would be driven mad by Seans eccentricities in no time.
carla condemning eva and toyah, does she herself do any wrong

Why would Roy do that ? Carla is his best friend . He would never kick her out in favour of Sean who is just a neighbour and a customer .
I was more bothered about how Carla allowed Daniel to think that the moth situation would work out ok, presumably just to get back at Alya who will now have to throw out a huge quantity of material and presumably lose money. I know she didn't bring the moth in herself, but she seemed very happy that the material would be ruined.
For the amount of time the moths were in the factory they would hardly have time to lay eggs or eat through material.
Sorry, I thought that was going to be the latest storyline for the factory but it hasn't been mentioned in any of the spoilers. Carla did look pleased with herself as she turned away though - maybe she was just grinning at Daniel's naivety...

Peter also being a bit of a hypocrite when he spoke to Toyah at the court. Maybe what she did wasn't totally right but Peter doesn't have the best track record.
Somehow, despite everything I was glad that Eva and Johnny managed to make a sort of peace, especially when he muttered in the court that it wasn't her fault.
Am I the only one who doesn't really have any sympathy for Sean. It's not the fact that he's homeless, but the pompous way he acts and the nasty way he talks down to others. Like Craig for example.
Yes I get your point about Shaun, his ego cant let him ask for help. But where Craig was concerned, he had said thank you but no thank you but the chap just kept pushing it and why was it even any of his business to know. But then Craig is annoying me on so many levels. The only police force he should be in is the Keystone Cops.

Its a debate, I have OCD, that is treatable and can be managed using CBT and other things as long as the sufferer fights it. No its his naivety , his willingness to do what others tell him to do even while knowing its wrong. A policeman is someone who reports events to the CPS who decide upon it. Just last week he let loose a women who had bashed in Sarahs head and held her hostage while pretending to be his GF for months, all on the request of Sarah. He thus then lied to a police officer.

I do like Abi but she obviously lacks parenting skills although she is trying. None of us are perfect parents that’s for sure.
I do get a bit fed up when producers do not research properly for scenes such as Ranas mum reading the Quran in hospital.

Surely they knew he wasn't stealing - they both know him from the factory and should have known he wouldn't steal from his workplace.

As asked above who owns the premises licence and a private licence for the pub, guess it must be Johnny as all charges where dropped re baby nap because Jenny has a criminal record dosent she? For kidnap of Kevs kid wasnt it?
Looks like Tim thinks she was bedding the fraudster.

If the purpose of Duncan's plan was to discredit Sally and have her sent to jail I could understand the mobile phones. But if he was just trying to defraud the Council of money as the story seems to suggest there was no point to them. Seems to me this and the money into Tim's account (how did he know the account details) was written as an after thought and makes no sense at all.

It's his own fault, it was only a short while ago that he was bragging about his new job/flat/mates and how well he was doing and great time he was having, all non-existent.
I think Sean has tended to create a small fantasy cocoon around himself ,in the past, without causing a great deal of self harm. This time it's different, probably going to need someone who knows him to see him on the street begging and assist.

I wouldn't honestly put it past her, and I was glad that Carla more or less told her to mind her own business.
Sally never learns does she with her Mrs Bucket act. I have a bit of sympathy for her but her constant act that she thinks she is so much better than everyone else just seems to be catching up with her.
I can understand Billy wanting to visit him as a vicar but there could be legal ramifications if David's case ever goes to court - he needs to just support David and stay away from the perpetrator. The storyline is a bit muddled - initially it was an "issue based" storyline, dealing with the aftermath for the victim but now it seems to be going in a whole new direction with the perpetrator as the victim. Going blind is a terrible thing to happen to anyone and I wasn't trying to sound harsh in my last post but I really hope we're not expected to feel sorry for Josh who was specifically brought in as a "baddie".

I've said it before, I don't think its a relationship thats going to survive, Kate is just too clingy and controlling. In some ways she's as bad as Ranas Mum in the way she wants to utterly control her.
As to Jude and Angie... I think Angie could still have a part in the show, I could see her developing. Jude though, he's just so irritating.
Something occurred to me while watching the disastrous vow renewal this evening - all those guests (not that there were a huge amount in the first place) were there for Mary, not for Jude and Angie. One of the biggest problems with Jude is that he hasn't really interacted with any of the main characters apart from Mary. Angie has been seen getting along with Toyah, and of course, there was her "moment" with Adam but Jude still seems to be on the outside, to some extent.
And now that he's allowed everyone to think he saved Roy's life he's going to be a hero for a little while until it all comes crashing down again... You would think he would try to avoid these situations where he has to lie, given that he's already been lying about his career...

I also think that they maybe should have a South African accent? I got the impression that Jude might have been adopted by a South African family but even if he moved there later in his life .. he met Angie there so she at least should be???
It doesn't help when the actor playing Jude is an expressionless plank of wood!
I was wondering about their parents too - are Jude's adoptive parents still alive? He seemed to begin calling Mary "mum" fairly quickly. And we never see Angie's family either.
I thought that they only emigrated to South Africa a few years ago and came home for Mary's sham wedding to Norris before deciding they would stay in the UK.
As usual I missed the visuals, so who did save Roys life?

Ali saved Roy's life as he happened to be passing ... he left to get another epi pen and asked Jude to stay with Roy

Was it Jude or Ali who stuck the pen into Roy?
I just remember Ali giving Jude the pen and going for another
Would Jude or Angie have a pen for George?
I liked Mary's scenes with Angie
It was definitely Ali who used the epi pen on Roy, and hopefully the truth will come out before the big lummox that is Jude gets to dine out on his hero status!
Nice one-liner last night, Peter's sarcastic comment to Tracy ,brought her response " your still getting xmas cards off your court stenographer" Memories of Blanche. :lol:
ali needs to spill beans on fake hero jude
ali needs to spill beans on fake hero jude
Maybe he realises that Jude has mental health issues and will try to talk to him to find out more why he does this habitual lying ?? :searchme:

You'd think Roy would wonder where Jude got an Epi Pen from, but then again in that semi delirious state Roy can be excused for not thinking straight.

Absolutely. I hope we can get away from all the recent sensationalist story-lines.
Nobody seems to know so far when final the Kates Oates episode is due to screen?

Roy would not at that moment but then Jude said in the Rovers that he always carries an epi pen because of George's allergy ....

and jackie not his mam, another backstory changed, his now parents, mary the mam with steve the daddy :p
The whole business with Billy and Josh is annoying me. I know Billy means well but Josh isn't really his responsibility and I still can't work out what direction the storyline is going in. Is Josh going to be blind permanently?
I'm glad Bethany has found out as it was all getting a bit odd. (Mind you, vicars don't give Hail Marys - why can't the writers do a bit of research?)
And how does Billy have all that time to visit Josh anyway?

Vicars only work on a Sunday, do they not? :p
That's what soap writers seem to think anyway! Billy needs to get on with his job and stop worrying about Josh. Why has no-one else visited him anyway? I know he said he doesn't get on with his family but surely someone would visit him at a time like this. I realise Billy feels guilty but he had no way of knowing that the other guy would beat Josh up.

I don't blame Bethany going off on one at Billy. Should Billy being doing that?
I also don't blame Gail walking out on Audrey and Lewis.

I am sure that Fiz and Ty could have rewound that tape and had it repaired if it had broken, then they may have been able to see at least part of his mum's message, after all it got messed up at the start so they may not have lost much. Use to happen all the time with audio cassettes and they use to play after rewinding. Never had it happen on VHS though.
Personally I think that Hope and Ruby are the stars of the show at present with Gina a close second.
maria wants to teach liam good life lessons perhaps start by not jumping into bed so often with taken men
I've no idea what to make of the Katie/Hannah storyline... First of all, the idea of Jim telling Liz in a public place with their "daughter" sitting behind them, was stupid and insensitive. But the whole concept is ridiculous anyway, considering it's been done before with Ali and Ryan anyway, and it's arrived in the middle of Tyrone's storyline about being abandoned/adopted. To be honest, it's one of the worst storylines they've done, and that's saying something.
The only possibility I can come up with is that it's a scam, and if Jim is in on it, I hope Liz and Steve kick him out of their lives for good and that he never returns to Weatherfield because it's the worst thing he could do to them. And if it's just Katie/Hannah, I hope she gets punished properly and not just forgiven by everyone involved. There's no way the writers can rescue this storyline - it's going to take a huge suspension of belief no matter what happens.
Very eloquently put, Emerald, I think that Sally's defence team could use your skill at putting together a reasoned argument - otherwise she's off to the Big House!
Thank you, but I think Sally needs a lot more help than anything I could provide!
