I really hope Tracey goes down and everyone on the street finds out about her plan all along. I was surprise Peter and Charlie never mentioned Shelly to each other. I'm sad Charlie is going you must admit he made Corrie interesting and Bill Ward was hot. Surely Shelly would be called as witness in Tracey's trial so will she return?
Finally Charlie is dead, and thats one death I shed no tears on, that makes a difference
and I cant stop laughing at Tracey's acting but then again I love her just being evil lol.

HAHA Tracey :p
Maria walked in and interrupted Charlie dunking David in the bath and holding his head underwater so she has witnessed first hand the nasty side of him. I can't understand why she would shed any tears for him.

i'm hoping this comes out in court actually.
Tracy is brilliant and she just cracks me up, one minute playing on sympathy the next laughing with relief.
Not sure about this Sonny bloke that Michelle is with, something a bit shifty about him.
Paul/Carla - A really lovely couple, lots of love on the outside but with hidden troubles on the inside (PC still :wub: as ever:p )
Peter( also :wub: as ever) /Ken they really are fantstic together. Ken was cracking me up with all his cups of tea the other night. It seemed to be a bit of a theme on the street.
Blanche - fantstic "I'll go to the hospital, take a flask and ring you when he pops his cloggs":rotfl: Also the remark about "Is he dead yet":lol:
Norris - Fantastic "No on the house" "Pay the man" "Oh yes it could be seen as a bribe":lol:
Steve Classic he is another one who is fantastic and:love: . I really liked the scene out in the back yard with him and Tracy. Another character who interacts with everyone perfectly.
I too shed no tears over Charlie's demise he got his just deserts in the end. Part of me thinks that Tracy will manage to pull this whole thing off but another part thinks that everything will come full circle and she will be found out.
With regards to Maria, I think she finished him off as she was talking to him whilst touching his hand when he flat lined.:lol:
Seriously though I can understand why she is upset. She was his bit on the side but she fell for Charlie hook line and sinker, she fell IN LOVE with him and still loved him knowing what kind of person he really was.
One megga disappointment though and that was the re-appearance of Adam Barlow. Just where did he rock up from? As far as I can recall there was no mention of anyone contacting him.
Really am enjoying Corrie at the moment and think that it is now my No1 soap.(even though I still enjoy my Emmerdale)

Adam's been there all along. He's been in his room unaware of all the excitement...
Yes, I agree that Corrie is really good at the moment. Perhaps they could send Eastenders producers and scriptwriters on a course to Granada to see how it's done.:D

:rotfl: or send them to the ITV school of writing as I personally think that they have all the best writers. Although Easties has improved a bit but it isn't consistent.
Corrie really is fulfilling it's promise at the moment. Lots going on with lots of very interesting and excellent characters. (Adam doesn't count)
I used to like Adam when he very first appeared in Corrie but then he just totally lost his appeal and potential for me. Wonder what he's been doing with his 80k
. Wonder what he's been doing with his 80kSpent most of it on Fast Cars, Fast women and Booze. He probably squandered the rest:)
He certainly didnt spend any of it on acting lessons or a hair stylist. Did he actuall speak last night??

:lol: I did notice a slight change and improvement in his hairstyle.
Yes he spoke a couple of times
One when he took Amy upstairs, think he said "I'll take her"
Then when Tracy was arrested and Ken told Peter to bring his car round, Blanche said something about not wanting to go and Adumb said "I'll stay with her"
He is such a let down to the Barlow Clan, who are fantastic. O.K Deirdre can grate on your nerves a bit a times.

Tracy is brilliant and she just cracks me up, one minute playing on sympathy the next laughing with relief.
But she's trying badly to act all along. :nono:
Not sure about this Sonny bloke that Michelle is with, something a bit shifty about him.
I spoke to Sunny and he said "Yesterday, my life was filled with rain
Paul/Carla - A really lovely couple, lots of love on the outside but with hidden troubles on the inside
Sounds like a badly written birthday card.
(PC still :wub: as ever:p )
Well you don't see PC's often in the street, so make the most of them.
Ken was cracking me up with all his cups of tea the other night.
Must be something in the water...
It seemed to be a bit of a theme on the street.
To be fair, tea is a popular drink.
Blanche - "Is he dead yet":lol:
If she watched ITV1 on Monday evening, she'd know.
Norris - Fantastic "No on the house" "Pay the man" "Oh yes it could be seen as a bribe":lol:
Charlie's paper order will have to be...Stubbed out now. :o
Steve Classic
Never heard of him. I know a Steve MacDonald though.
I really liked the scene out in the back yard with him and Tracy.
Steve is a barrel of laughs, which is why he was in the back yard with barrels of ale.
I too shed no tears over Charlie's demise he got his just deserts in the end.
Tracy turned his brain into his favourite dessert - jelly and ice cream - with that blow.
Part of me thinks that Tracy will manage to pull this whole thing off
You mean her head? She could rip off the face to reveal Dawn Acton, and walk out the prison without anyone realising.
but another part thinks that everything will come full circle and she will be found out.
If the Police and prison service have watched Corrie for 30 years, they will know she is clever at changing her face.
With regards to Maria, I think she finished him off as she was talking to him whilst touching his hand when he flat lined.:lol:
Charlie, to his peril, failed to work out how to solve a problem like Maria. :o
She was his bit on the side but she fell for Charlie hook line and sinker,
Items he'd normally use for his building projects.
she fell IN LOVE with him and still loved him knowing what kind of person he really was.
A trained actor?
One megga disappointment though and that was the re-appearance of Adam Barlow. Just where did he rock up from?
Third rock from the sun, surprisingly...
As far as I can recall there was no mention of anyone contacting him.
There was no need. Adam has been watching ITV1 four evenings a week in recent weeks, so he didn't need to be summoned, to know what was going on.
Really am enjoying Corrie at the moment and think that it is now my No1 soap.(even though I still enjoy my Emmerdale)
You'll get in trouble with trade and descriptions for that....

Paying the NHS back for his mum's botched abortion. Plenty of compensation fees to sort out and that....

No cancel that your Norris on Corrie aren't you or is it Blanche:lol: :p
Forgot to mention in the previous post that I'm sort of glad to see Dev back although he is still arrogant but I'm liking the Dev/Amber scenes more.

i am glad peter is back. I like where peter always seems to be having a drink all the time i am a bit sad that charlie has gone but not much peter mmmm :wub:
Also I love the way Peter takes charge and particularly the way he looks out for Ken. Like the other night when he had a word with Deirdre about the way she has been acting towards him. He always seems to put others needs before his own, like when they were all off to court and Ken said that it would be a bit of a tight squeeze in the car if Tracy was released on bail and Peter quite simply said it was o.k he'd get the bus back. A truly wonderful character whom I would dearly love to make a full time return.
Wednesday anothe brilliant episode, same as usual with regards to the comments.
I liked the way Chesney had taken charge of the house with all the chores and the cooking that was funny but sweet at the same time.

Yeah chesney was brill and then Fiz sent Kirk home to check on him, she should have sent him home to do the work.
Oh no Adam is back Again!
Lovely Peter Scenes as usual.
Aww poor Schmicheal being seperated from Chesney. Mind you he is a bit big for a flat!:lol:
Tracy is getting more and more devious...
Great viewing with lots more to come.
i thought that how can they accuse maria of being unreasonable when the dog is twice the size of him, no way would he fit in that little old flat.

Judging by the way Deirdre Barlow is behaving and, to a lesser extent, Claire, my guess would be that Tracy's real role in Charlie's murder comes to light at some point.

I'm loving evil David at the moment him and Tracey teaming up should be great. Is Peter gone for good now? Was that some of the new family last nite?
Richie_lecturer
30-01-2007, 18:30
Peter is gone for a while.
Yes that was the start of the new family, who arrive in... March
First episode last night was very good. Second a bit bland/average.
Good three episodes of Corrie.
Sunday: Enjoyed Paul/Carla as usual. To me it seems that Paul is very loving towards his wife but at the same time he sees her as a challenge and this is what he likes, however as we are finding out his first love appears to be business. We are seeing another side to Paul's character, as well as him being cheeky, playful, charming, loving, ruthless etc we are finding out that he can also be moody and gives the impression that he can take life a little too serious at times, i.e when Liam is winding him up. (love Paul's character and the way it is being developed and as I have said I just love his wonderful expressions too, epsec his Carla/Liam ones!)
I do like the brotherly banter between Liam and Paul, their disagreeing and I suppose the competition between the two also.
Going back to Paul/Carla just have to make a few comments about Carla, now I like her but she doesn't appear very loving towards Paul even when she is being affectionate to me she still seems "frosty". Obviously with Carla her first love is Money, however I do think that she loves Paul but both like to challenge one another. Paul summed it up the other night "It's not about the winning or losing, it's about the taking part, you know that..."
Moving on now..
I too am absolutely loving David and think that he could easily beat Tracy at her own game, he really is a little ***! Poor Gail! I would say that he could definitely be a very strong contender for Corrie's next bad boy as he is getting worse by the episode.
Ken is providing enjoyable viewing.
Steve adorable as ever.
Cilla - annoying.
Love the Chesney/Fiz scenes.
Becky I think I may be warming too. I can see her as another one of Roy and Hayley's "bad to good" people. I remember what Fiz was like when she first appeared, don't think I was that keen on her back then, now I love her!
New family, the grandad puts me in mind of Fred Elliott, the grandaughter appears to be a very strong and feisty character.
Enjoyable viewing,lot more to come!
One final thing, I'm disappointed that Peter's return appears to be only very brief, from the point of view that he isn't involved in the Tracy/Charlie storyline as much as I thought he was going to be.

i wish corrie had explained why peter had gone off screen
i wish corrie had explained why peter had gone off screenI know, ite very annoying when soaps dont give you answers
I really miss the lovely Peter. I'm guessing that we have been given a couple of clues as to where he has gone: the first being a scene where he was on the phone to his work and he was telling them to get this Alison in as she needs the cash and he didn't know when he would be back, also when he was sat on the sofa looking through the paper and told Blanche that it was business. So I reckon he's back in Portsmouth for the time being..
Corrie ticking along nicely, nothing new to comment on at the moment just the same as usual, great viewing etc...
brooksyrules
05-02-2007, 11:12
yeah that is true i hope he is coming back though it is not as good without him but there were clues but i think they should have being a proper explanation like one of the barlows could have said something like were he was
Yeah I know but that's the wonder of TV for us, although sometimes they do explain someone's absense. Still as far as our Peter is conerned we will assume he is back in Portsmouth for now..
In the meantime we have the lovely Connors to keep us entertained and of course Tracy and David, Roy/Hayley and Becky. Becky has definitely grown on me lately, hope she comes good in the end...
Yeah I know but that's the wonder of TV for us, although sometimes they do explain someone's absense. Still as far as our Peter is conerned we will assume he is back in Portsmouth for now..
Yep I suppose, as long as he's not dead, its ok.

Well, he might be, but you can see it from her point of vew can't you. She wants her business up and running as soon as possible on nicely built and refurbished premises...Is that possible with Jason? Hmmm...you just have to ask the question to know the answer to that one!!!
Still enjoying every minute of Corrie
Paul Connor:wub: :wub: :love: more than ever.
Just loved it when he put Kelly in her place, and I thought it was so sweet when he came to Carla's defense the way he did, all protective and loving...ahhh:love:
Steve just adorable and thought it was hilarious the other night when he flashed his belly to Sean:rotfl:
I like the combo of Steve/Jamie and yes maybe even Adam, three single lads together. It would be good to see them out on the town together.
Poor Michelle if only she knew.. run Sonny..run..:lol:

I'm the same. Apart from a few good scenes in the odd good/very good episode, I've found it flat for several weeks. Thank goodness for Blanche, otherwise I would have been reaching for the brandy (don't stop me now). I feel the same about the other soap operas as well at the moment (one of which I have turned off again for a long time to come, but let's not go into that....).

I agree everything is a bit flat at the moment. I'm still enjoying Corrie (or think it would be more correct to say certain characters) but am finding the storylines a bit tedious and dragging on to long.
The Tracy storyline has gone on to long, the only thing I'm enjoying here at the moment is Blanche.
Like the two new characters, one who is obviously going to be commical and the other who is fiesty.
I too have stopped watching the other unmentionable one and haven't tuned in for weeks nor have any desire too.
Looking on the positive side as far as Corrie and the other ITV soap go, brighter times are and will be ahead, guaranteed.

Enjoyed Friday's Episode, espec the Connor scenes:p :wub: :wub: My fav Connor baby did some wonderful expressions and was on form as usual. Lovely Carla/Paul scene in the office when she was "luring" Paul to lunch.
Kelly has to go she is such a *******stirrer and a big head. I felt sorry for Joanne Kelly was so jealous. As far as Liam's treatment of her goes she knew the score from day one as he made it clear to her that it was "just fun, no strings"
Not a lot else to comment on for now..:D

I cant bare to watch that Kelly on-screen, the actress who plays her is so over the top I always cringe when she comes on screen.

So do I and even more so this week or so when she has been making advances towards Liam, she just loves herself. Still I suppose someone has to:lol:
When she was making a scene in the pub about Joanne going behind her back and Dev came over to cool things down and she did that weird headbutt at him..urghhhh
I also cringed when she made a comment about Paul being jealous and that she felt ashamed for him, I thought yeah we're ashamed of you love:lol:
I have the feeling though that Carla ACTUALLY likes her inspite of the fact that they had a bit of a bumpy start when they first met (Xmas Dinner)
Nah Joanne maybe a bit boring but at the end of the day she is much nicer and I think quite attractive.

I think her surname Crabtree is just about right for her because she is always crabby and has her pinches out:D
As if Paul would even consider having the hots for her:rolleyes: for starters she has no class or discretion whatsoever!
Kelly should be blown up with Vernon:D
Im finding it really hard to watch corrie at the moment Im getting so bored, however lately I have felt sorry for Kelly and Tracey is getting worse.

It's not as bad as that. It's a controlled (mini-) explosion.
Tracy leaves early April I believe.
Steve was great last night with his facial expressions. Highlight of a somewhat average episode.
Loving Corrie still.
Steve is fantastic and yes he is another character with expression and personality.
My highlight of course was the:wub: :wub: Paul/Carla Connor who just get more adorable by the episode. Really love what someone called their "fiesty" marriage. Carla I am really warming too now and you can see that she has a softness in her when she is with Paul and he is being all loving with her and supportive.ahhhh...
Was great to see a lads get together and I liked the combination of Lloyd, Jamie, Sean and of course Steve. Lloyd when he first re-appeared, out of nowhere I didn't like him but have now changed my mind completely about him. I think it's the fact that he is paired with Steve and has been put with the "lads"
Steve is another one of my favourite Corrie characters who slots in nicely anywhere.
Also Dev now he is becoming central once again, I am warming to him.
Becky she is another character who I now like.
Vernon, no change, although I did enjoy the Jack/Vernon scene where Jack was giving Vernon a few tips on how to "make out" he was working hard:lol:
The Tracy stuff is becoming a bit dull and seems to have run out of steam, unlike Blanche/Norris and Rita:lol:
Becky she is another character who I now like.
Same here, i mean I know that when she first came here she was horrible but now I think she is getting misunderstood, and is really trying hard to turn her life around.

Just like Fiz another of Roy and Hayley's successes. I hated Fiz at first just as I did Becky but as I've said previously I now love Fiz and can see myself ending up feeling the same way towards Becky.
You can see that Becky is a good and soft person deep down.
I am hating Kelly more and more.
Dont get my started on Kelly every time she opens her mouth I cant stand her, she is just getting very annoying.
I thought tonights would be really stupid with the bomb and everything, but i actually thought it was quite good.
I'm sure I remember last September Josh starting proper school. He was in his uniform and Claire Ashley and Fred were all making a fuss. tonight when Ashley asked Claire where Josh was she said he was at playgroup. :searchme:
OMG! Was I having hysterics lst night at the :wub: :love: :heart: Paul
There was Roy wittering on about dropping bombs and Paul suddenly said
"Talking of dropping bombs, any idea where the lavs are?:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Can't wait until Sonny gets that smug look wiped from his face.
Absolutely loving Corrie at the moment.

LOL! I just love Sean's little innocent lines which have a double euendo (spelt wrong) as do most of Corrie lines
For example the other night when Paul was saying that his wallet was his best feature and Carla turned to him and said your second best before kissing him passionately:wub:
Corrie is just so on top with the plots/storylines, comedy (absolutely hilarious at times)drama etc and fabulous writing as is its "twin" soap
Steve is an absolute gem and another character I adore, just loving him being so central. When he first appeared in the soap I couldn't stick him, funny how certain characters just grow on you more and more over time. Really enjoying Lloyd too surprisingly. Just hope he doesn't get it on again with "super gob, the bunny boiler"
Still LOATHE Vernon.
Corrie have matched their characters up well, most of which interact and fit in anywhere and with anyone.

Indeed, Steve is excellent. I remember when the McDonalds arrived in 1989 and for years I didn't like Steve or Liz, Steve in particular annoyed me with his mucking around with Alf Roberts. How they have got better with age, especially Steve.
Lloyd has been much better since he returned too.
Vermin annoying as ever. What a shame he wasn't in the line of fire.
I also agree about Sonny. He's dreadful, and I hate the storyline with Sean, absolutely zero chemistry between them.
Is that gnome the property of one Derek Wilton?
i htough ti was good last night,. but i to still loathe vermin, like the majority do. Paul conner was funny as well.

From my VERY CONSIDERABLE experience going back almost 30 yrs professionally this incident was handled extremely well with great attention to detail. I talk as someone who unfortunately as seen the results of REAL bombs
Id didnt understand the point of it.Me neither. All done and dusted in two episodes.. very strange..
Well of course they could have spun it out for a week like Growlers death, or had it over in minutes like the great funfair disaster. Well done to Corrie for a well researched story. Pity Coronation Street didnt hav send for ''Den Twatts'' he will know what to do,:rolleyes:

That's the beauty of COrrie and why it is just burning red hot at top throttle right now because they don't drag things out years on end. They have ongoing Big storylines but they keep it interesting by adding lots of twists and turns, you never really know what the outcome is going to be.
Personally I really enjoyed the bomb episode and found it more commical than anything, which I think was the general idea anyway. I did expect more drama from what I read in the spoilers with three people missing. I thought there was going to be an explosion and these characters whereabouts would remain a mystery for a couple of episodes (guess this was just my imagination going into overdrive again LOL) My only major disappointment about the episode is that Vernon is still alive.
Norris/Blanche have some serious competition on the comedy front in the form of Paul and Steve who have been absolutely hilarious recently. I loved the way during the bomb episode that Paul ws interacting with everyone on a commical level, fantastic.:D

Poor Michelle well at least she knows. Liam was hilarious last night and i'm really liking him and Leanne.
I know I felt really sorry for her, but it is best that she knows, and leanne and liam would be interesting
I'm really enjoying Coronation Street at the moment, I must admit I couldn't see how it was going to continue to be as good as late last year, but with the Connors, and Tracy's trial,and this bisexual love triangle, things are looking up for Corrie! Getting beter and better by the episode :thumbsup:
Me too, naturally I am in Corrie "heaven" right now with the Connors becoming very central and look as though they are going to have most of the "Juicy" storylines.
I love the way Corrie are leading one big storyline into another with regards to the Connors as well as developing other "Big" storylines with other themes for them. We currently have the bisexual love triangle with the boyfriend and best friend betrayal which is leading up to another type of"Betryal" storyline which I think will lead to another.
I have enjoyed the Sean/Michelle/Sonny storyline as it is a different kind of love betrayal, just wish Paul had punched Sonny's lights out!
I did feel sorry for Sean as he is getting all the agro, but like the Connor Bros kept stressing to him the other night, it is about Sonny lying to sister Michelle who naturally they are protective of.
There were some lovely Connor scenes in Sunday's episode with Paul givng Sonny the "Big brother/Father" speech with a few warnings and I liked the Liam/Paul/Ryan brief chat.
Paul was on form as usual with his witty charm! (just have to say I:love: him in jeans) I'm loving the fact that we are now seeing the other side to Paul.
For me the Connors are just wonderful and the best addition to Corrie for quite sometime and are becoming more and more:wub: with every episode.
Steve - well what can I say? Wonderful, he's character is just shining and I did feel sorry for him when he tried to warn Michelle but she wouldn't believe him. I liked the LIam/Steve scene in the cab office Monday when Liam was going off at him and Steve told him to calm down, Liam sat down and Steve as casual as you like said "fancy a brew":lol: His character has really grown big time and become absolutely adorable over the years, love himbeing so central. Lloyd I'm very fond of now also and these two work well together.
Liam is growing on me more and more, although I have always loved his character and I think that he and a certain "lady" will be great together.
Norris/Rita/Blanche commical as ever. Doreen not too bad, her and Rita and funny together espec when they go off on their benders!
David/Tracy good but becoming a bit dull for me.
All in all Fantastic viewing with lots more on the way.
Very well done to Corrie and all involved.
Me too, naturally I am in Corrie "heaven" right now with the Connors becoming very central and look as though they are going to have most of the "Juicy" storylines.
They certainly do seem to be having the main storyline at the minute but as always with Corrie there are always one or two more on the back burner, Traceyluv and Devvil Boy, Clur and Casey

I think this story has a long way to run yet

I did feel sorry for Sean as he is getting all the agro, but like the Connor Bros kept stressing to him the other night, it is about Sonny lying to sister Michelle who naturally they are protective of.
I feel sympathy for Sean in all of this. After all he was obviously in love with Sonny Boy before Michelle came along. Sonny Boy wants to have his cake and eat it. Trophy wife at home and a gay lover when he feels like a bit on the side (or should that be other side)

I agree the Connors have been a great addition to the street and have fitted in seamlessly. Sorry but for obvious reasons I dont share your love of Paul:)

Lloyd I'm very fond of now also and these two work well together.
Steve and Lloyd are making a great double act especially when thay are plotting against Les and Vermin. Pity Steve keeps putting his size nines in his gob when he talks to Lloyd about Michelle especially with her in the background. Its obvious the two of them will settle down together unless of course Karen comes back
Liam is growing on me more and more, although I have always loved his character and I think that he and a certain "lady" will be great together.
Leanne and Liam would be another great pairing although what he will do when he discovers her night-time occupation should be fun as wil Les and Godzillas
Norris/Rita/Blanche commical as ever. Doreen not too bad, her and Rita and funny together espec when they go off on their benders!
Great fun at the moment and Dorris's face when Rita kissed him was priceless
David/Tracy good but becoming a bit dull for me.
Call me sick but I would love to see Devil boy actually have his wicked way with Toxic before telling her he wasnt going to give evidence in court. Its the least she deserves

That's what I like about Corrie, they are fair and make sure that everyone gets a look in and has a decent storyline. Like you quite rightly have said they run more than one big storyline at a time, there is something for everyone. Don't forget Vernon/Liz/Derek Plus Underworlds Illegal workers raid and Joanne's possible deportation and Leanne's secret

Getting beter and better by the episode :thumbsup:
I don't think it's too bad, but I don't think it's great either. Sean and Sonny haven't been that strong in this love triangle, and only Michelle has put in a performance of note. Of course Steve is excellent, and even Lloyd has improved since he returned. Not enjoying the Tracy/David stuff as it's a bit OTT for me, but David and the older Barlows are making it bearable. Finally, it is great to have Leanne back, a character who has been much missed.
Not Chekov, but the best for me right now, compared to its two main rivals.
Norris/Rita/Blanche commical as ever. Doreen not too bad, her and Rita and funny together espec when they go off on their benders!

I loved that scene, Norris went all gooey. Am I detecting roamnce brewing here? Obviously not the full on type, although it would be hysterical seeing Rita/Norris acting like a couple of teenagers, i.e secret little kisses and hugs etc.:lol: but a sweet "Old Fashioned" more along the line of companionship type.
I like the new Leanne so far and I agree she certainly livens things up and as far as I can tell there are some real fireworks coming up in connection with this lady!

That scene with Ryan 'sussing out' Sean and Sonny was ridiculous. Bad acting all round. :thumbsdow
The rest was actually alright. It was just that two minutes of madness that spoilt it. Hopefully this storyline will come to an end soon.
Next week looks better, with plenty of Dreary. :thumbsup:
I really enjoyed the Connor confrontation scene on Friday where Paul lashed out at Ryan and clipped him round the ear (marvellous acting from Sean the way he just lunged forward and clipped). I particularly loved the way that scene was showing us the youger brother keeping his older brother under control, espec as we were led to believe that Liam was the lose Cannon in the family where in actual fact it is Paul:wub: :love: :heart: . Liam was definitely taking control there. I was impressed with the way we saw that Paul will snap at Carla if the mood takes him, I liked that. Yes I love all the fireworks which are building in the Connor family afterall this is what makes the viewing interesting. A good mixture of lovely/Sweet and fighting etc.
Michelle has been wonderful of late also, Kim is brilliant. Liam is getting better and better as we are seeing more character development with him also. Hopefully there are going to be some lovely brotherly scenes coming up as well as Paul/Carla:wub:
Sonny I just want to disappear he really is a smug G**, Sean needs to wake up and smell the coffee.
Liz's new fella - My god what the hell are they doing! Liz's lovers are just getting worse! Think I prefer Vernon.
Yes, another exceelnt week on the cobbles, with another great week to come!

Indeed another great episode.
Wow what a change of character we are seeing in Paul!:love: :wub: Boy has he got a temper and looks like he is about to explode big time.:wub: :wub: Lovely to see him giving Carla a bit of agro for a change.
Love the turn around in the Connor family of:
Michelle/Paul - going from the "Happy go lucky" peace keepers to a couple of angry bulls,
Michelle - full of anger and hurt due to Smug git plus not very happy with brother Paul for his "attack" on son Ryan.
Paul - of course, in a real moodie because something his been stirred inside him from Ryan's joyriding..
Nice to see a bit of agro between these two espec as we have seen how close they normally are.
Liam/Carla - the two Connors who normally give all the grief are now on the receiving end. These two are now trying to be the peace keepers as well as the ones giving the love and support.
I love the way Liam is looking out for Paul, trying to keep him in line.
Yes really loving all the Connor stuff espec the fact that we are now getting to know the "real" them.
Deirdre yes on form as usual getting a shock when she went for a fag in the back yard. With Deirdre finding out about Tracy's secret it has kicked a bit of life into this storyline.
Leanne/Jamie great.
Star of the show of course Paul:wub: :p

Loving Corrie at the moment. I'm glad Peter is back hopefully he will be staying. I have to say if Sean had done that to my sister or brother i would have done more than fired him after all it does take two to tango and Sean did know Michelle was seeing him. I think Paul is very protective of his family maybe even more of Michelle and Ryan since what happened with Dean. I think the Connors are a great addition to the cast. BTW the shirt looked so much better on Peter than Dev. Loving Liam and Leanne they will make a great couple.
I thought it was really good last night. It was very emotional scenes in the car with Liam and Carla. It was so funny when she mentioned his 21st and how he didnt like her as he sent her to Mosside !!! I wonder where Pauls got to. Im really growing on the connors.
I to thought that the shirt suited Peter better than Dev.
Oh yes I am in Corrie heaven right now as both my favourite families have the central place and then there's the return of Peter.
Paul:wub: :wub: was absolutely brilliant the other night, I loved his behaviour, witty, sarcy, ruthless, a bit of a b/d all with a couldn't careless attitude, but at the same time you could tell that he was very stressed out emotionally. I just loved the way he went ballistic at Sean and physically removed him from the factory it was the least Sean deserved afterall he was bithcing about Paul's sister. Sean should of known it was best to keep his gob shut, mind you the girls were just as bad, winding hm up all day about Sonny, everyone should of known that it's a very sensitive subject around the Connors right now, espec Paul who is very protective of his family. This is what it';s all about with Paul and Liam too "Protecting" the people they love.
I too really liked the scene in the car with Liam/Carla espec as it showed us a different side to both of their characters. Liam is becoming very:wub: you can tell that they both love Paul very much. I liked the way that we found out more about the Connors history, they certainly are a very interesting family. The Connors are certainly very protective of one another, but I think they all rely on and need Paul though, he is the strength and backbone of the Connor family, inspite of the fact that I'm under the impression that Liam is the harder of the two brothers, Paul is a softie really.
Ken was brilliant too, when he was winding everyone up, espec Peter,by shouting out his crossword clues and then came out with a classic when Tracy was telling everyone in the Barlow household about the "shirt"incident, Ken said somehting like " I'd thought you'd like that sort of thing espec with you having been in the navy where they all dress the same!" Lovley brother/sister scenes with Peter and Tracy. Then of course there's Deirdre who is looking daggers at everyone whilst puffing away on the cigs, another classic by Ken "She'll be smoking in bed next!"
I particularly liked the fact that they let us know where Peter had been but didn't think that Portsmouth was that far away! (Re: Driving through the night)
Steve classic as usual and just love his "Subtley" He is a character who doesn't really have big storylines but at the same time he does. He is in the thick of everything all the time, Steve is involved in most of the big storylines and it works well. Hate to admit this but I do find that Steve works well with Vernon, guess he just brings out the best in people.
Liz's new fella don't like at all at the mo, but I did think the "Heart to Heart" scene in the back of the Rovers with the two f them was nice.
Eileen she is a great character too and I loved her classic " Jason you can't still be on that bog":lol:
Dev he's character really has gone down hill since Sunita left,prior to her leaving Dev was a brilliant character but now he is lost and his storylines are crap.
All in all fantastic viewing and I'm just loving it all!

Pretty much a carbon copy of Vera's line after the Rovers Return fire in 1986 which nearly killed off Bet Lynch (of course, it was Jack's fault).
I just love your posts on corrie babe 14. It just sums up everything i want to say but a million times better. eilleen in my opinion is one of the most underrated actresses on the show. I love her. Her one liners are classic. And Dev its so true. Hes lost without sunita. He werent to good with her but now hes just shockingly bad.

Thanks Katy it's really nice of you to say so, I'll keep doing them just for you:) Have to admit once I get started or my teeth into something I do get a bit carried away:lol: Espec where the Connors are concerned! So just imagine what I would be like if they brought Peter back permanently!!:lol:
Have to admit I did enjoy Dev/Sunita and thought the character was good back then, but did find him a bit arogant. I don't know about anyone else but I'm finding this Dev image storyline a bit silly an dhis chat up lines just make me cringe with embarrassment. I hope that the character will improve during the upcoming golfing storyline and the Jodie potential love storyline.
With regards to Paul's whereabouts I'm guessing his probably driving around somewhere trying to sort his head out..
Haven't seen last nights corrie yet, when I do you'll know LOL!
He's back and he's gone all soft and fluffy again:wub: :wub: Just love the way that Paul is grovelling to his family after his recent behaviour and the revelation that he was responsible for Dean's death. Paul will now do everything he can to make things right again.
No one should of driven the car that night they should of got a cab, but what is done is done and Paul is/has been punished enough having to live with the guilt for the rest of his life, having to face Ryan/Michelle knowing what he knows..
Lovely Paul/Carla Scenes, espec the first scene with Paul's re-appearance I just love the way he goes all sheepish and unsure like that when he's done something wrong, also the end scene at Underworld when Carla told him no more secrets from either of them not ever and they agreed then kissed:wub: :wub:
When Michelle said that she would go out for a meal with them only if Paul is paying, there was a double euendo here, when Paul went "Oh yes" as far as Michelle was concerned he was talking about the meal, but Paul actually meant that he ws paying the price for what he had done. (but doesn't Paul always pay anyway?)
Lovely scene here with the Connors and Paul being all apologetic with Carla /Liam protecting and supporting him, Just loved Paul's expressions and the banter between him and Liam,each and everyone of the Connors interact well with one another. The Connors are growing and growing. Also we have learnt more about the type of person Paul is he can be self-centred, which was clearly shown when he said to Carla "The only thought which went through my mind that night was how am I gonna get meself out of this mess. How can you admit something like that to your wife?" Also we have seen other sides to Liam/Carla's characters this week and recently.
I just loved the way Paul went into the factory cool as you like and said morning and asked if everyone was o.k. Then of course there was the scene with brother Liam, like Carla said they are always trying to get one over on one another but they are so tight that they tend to lock other people out.
Peter so lovely to have him back. I'm just loving his flirting with Maria and just cracked up when he went into the hairdrssers and helped himself to a look at the appointments book, fitted himslef in for a trim and then brewed up. I've noticed that Peter has now picked up Ken's habit of brewing up:lol: Just love the way he comes out with his little comments, for example when Tracy/Deirdre/Peter/Maria were all in the Rovers and Peter was with Maria, much to Tracy's annoyance,he went over to join Deirdre/Tracy and Tracy said "Hope your not telling her my business" Peter replied before getting up from his seat "Like I'd dare":lol: Peter is definitely Ken II with slightly different ways. I liked it the other night when Peter had been for a walk and he came in and told Ken all about how he'd walked down to the reservoir and along the canal which had lots of boats all tied up of course, this was a typical Ken trait.
We have Deirdre palying detective which is unerving Tracy as her suspicions are being aroused, we clearly saw this in the end scene Friday where Peter put his arm around Deirdre and asked if she was o.k, which I thought was lovely and now think that Peter is also becoming suspicious of Tracy.
Now Sean has been irritating me and I've not liked him very much recently (def one of my love/hate characters) but did quite like the Violet/Sean scenes, espec the one where he was referring to Paul as a killer Shark!:lol:
Clare/Casey not much happening at the moment just seeds being sowed.
Dev - I am so cringing at him right now.
Steve on form as usual. Jus tloved his comment to Vernon the other night during the discussion about aftershave where Vernon was going on about how he likes to be sprayed as he passes by the counters, Steve said "ever thought they might be trying to get you in the eye Vernon":lol:
Liz's new fella - I find myself warming to him now and think that he would be good for Liz as he comes across as the gentlemanly type. Why oh why did she do that, dump Derek the other night for Vernon!
Overall a lovely enjoyable week down on the cobbles and Corrie certainly have some wonderful characters right now.
An excellent start to the week with the arrival of the Mortons whom on first impression seem like a family who are defintely going to cause chaos on the street and make even the lovely Connors look like a normal peaceful family! Wonderful to see Michael Starke (Jerry) who has slipped into his role perfectly. (Although he will always be SInbad to me) Love the interaction with the Platts espec between Gail and Jerry. The Mortons who have made an instant impact n me are Jerry and Grandad, think that these two will probably be my favourites in this family, Jodie not so sure about her but think that she is a good character as she is fiesty and I think that she will give Janice Battersby a run for her money in the biggest gob stakes!
Now of course to my "babe" of Corrie Paul. Although I enjoy the Sunday episodes with all the Connors spending Sunday together I did like the fact that we had The Connors all doing their own thing this week.
Absolutely loved the scene with Michelle/Ryan where Paul was being all soft and trying to win Ryan around. Also the scenes in the Rovers with Liam/Michelle/Steve/Dev I was just cracking up with the humour and witty comments that were coming from mainly Steve and Paul.
(Paul after Liam thought he had a date with Leanne)"He takes after our Grandad who was a merchant seaman, a girl in every port,a port in every girl!" :lol:
(Steve pointing to Dev) "He can do better than that, seven shops, seven women with seven babies inside them!":rotfl:
When Paul was doing a practice swing in the pub I just cracked up, he really loves to show off :lol: Looking forward to the golfing this week with these 3 characters as I am sure there are definitely going to be some very commical moments. (I really hope that this storyline will give Dev a purpose and bring his character back to life, he is with the right two characters to do this.)
Liam/Leanne - Nice scenes and he was doing so well until Jancie came in and opened that big mouth of hers:lol: Janice is also my love/hate character who annoys me alot but at times I like her. Have to say Vicky looks good with her new image, best I've seen her.
Peter/Tracy/Deirdre - Enjoying Deirdre being detective as it has added a bit of interest back into this ongoing story, love Peter being peace keeper (again another trait of Ken's he has inherited) Tracy is being an absolute bitch to everyone espec Clare. Now as you know I ' m not that keen on the Peacocks and find them dull, but I actually feel sorry for Clare, as Ken said she is a damn good friend (Maybe Sean can take lessons from her on loyalty) Tracy is just using her unfortunately Clare is to nieve to realise. Have to admit I do think that Clare/Ashley are sweet.
Absolutely loving Corrie right now.
What a cracker the double helping of Corrie was on Monday!
We had the emotion and drama from Janice and Leanne and the fantastic comedy/humour on the golf course!
Really like Janice/Leanne storyline which showed us how things were from both sides of the fence, I like Janice when she is like this. These are yet another two characters who work really well together. I was so glad that they made up in the end, well sort of. The scene with Leanne sat in Jerry's, all alone looking out of the window,,with Janice walking across the other side of the street where Leanne beckoned to her with her hand to come over was lovely.
Peter/Maria loving it, of course Tracy always has to come along to spoil things but Peter won't have any of it. He's a monkey tellin gher that he was giving Maria a hard time where in actual fact he was being quite sourcy with her as she was with him, particularly when they were talking about "Interferring":rotfl:
Now the golfing storyline - Hilarious, these three characters DO work well together as I hoped they would. Steve was on form with the humour and comments:
(Paul stuck in the bunker)
"You would of dug a hole through to Australia in a minute"
(Paul takes another swing, misses)
"G'day mate" (Steve)
"Throw us another shrimp on the barbie" (Steve)
(Paul eventually gets himself out of the bunker)
"You were in that bunker so long I was going to get you a deck chair" (Steve)
:rotfl: :rotfl:
Then we had some lovely comments from Paul blaming his clubs, then his shoes:rotfl: :rotfl:
These two were wonderful.
As for Dev well the character has come back to life through this storyline and Steve/Paul, he was great too!
(That Paul is such a naughty boy:D :p )
I like the fact that we are now having the Connors interacting seperately with the other characters on the street and having storylines with them in addition to their family orientated ones.
Steve wins the prize for the best dressed golfer:rotfl:
Jerry absolutely loving his character. A real rogue we have here and he is defintely after Gail!
I loved it in the beginning of Corrie, where Roy was nosing through the window trying to have a look at the opposition.
Also I am actually liking Vernon now, he is becoming likeable now that he is being interacted with other characters such as Steve/Paul/Dev/Jack.
I have noticed that Corrie along with the other soaps tend to put the less popular characters with the more popular ones inorder to make them more likeable, it works.
Excellent Writing/Storylines/Scripting/Humour/Comedy and fantstic character interaction. Brilliant acting all round also.

I agree and I also thought Janice - a character I normally find very irritating when all gobby - was excellent last night. More please.
Peter/Maria loving it
I am, but I'm not sure why Maria would go for someone twice her age. :confused:
Now the golfing storyline - Hilarious, these three characters DO work well together as I hoped they would. Steve was on form with the humour and comments:
It was alright, although Steve was dressed ridiculously OTT. Dev looked the part, shame he couldn't have been used as a flag beside each hole. Some good one liners though, as you have pointed out. :)
I like the fact that we are now having the Connors interacting seperately with the other characters on the street and having storylines with them in addition to their family orientated ones.
I think the Connors have improved over the last fortnight. I find them more bearable, but not entirely convinced they 'belong' in Weatherfield.
Jerry absolutely loving his character. A real rogue we have here and he is defintely after Gail!
He was good in Brookie, and good so far. I don't know what he's thinking of with ET, honestly.
Not too sure on the Morton clan yet but it's early doors....

Indeed. Roy is excellent.
Also I am actually liking Vernon now, he is becoming likeable now that he is being interacted with other characters such as Steve/Paul/Dev/Jack.
Agree but I still don't like him much. By the way it's Vermin. :nono:
All in all it's been a bit better these last few episodes. :)

I hate it when Janice mouths off all the time, as we have seen the other night and in previous episodes of Corrie she is a much better more likeable character when she isn't being "agro" all the time.
Peter/Maria loving it
I am, but I'm not sure why Maria would go for someone twice her age. :confused:
There is definitely something very appealing about the older man

Agree but I still don't like him much. By the way it's Vermin. :nono:
LOL I stand corrected. Of course I meant Vermin, who I wouldn't shed any tears over if he were to leave but as I said I have warmed to him quite a bit lately. Vermin/Liz don't work. Now Liz/Derek maybe..
There was a classic from Rita which I missed whilst talking to Norris about string
"What did you used to use to dangle your conkers with":rotfl: (another case of double euendo)
Finally I just love all these lads get togethers

LOL! I thought that Paul was the one who actually looked the part with his outfit and one hand gloved, which of course I absolutely:love: :heart: he looked just like a professional golfer, which I think was the intention.

She went with Charlie who was older than her also and well Peter is fit as was Charlie so i can see why she would go for them
How could Mollie do that, stop Tyrone from joining the lads in their golfing and he so wanted to! This would of added even more humour to the golfing storyline and I can just see Paul:wub: taking Tyrone under his wing and giving him a few tips:lol:
Another golfing group which I think would be hilarious in addition to the one we already have, would be Noreen/Norris/Rita and Blanche:rotfl:
I think that this golfing is a good idea espec as we are been shown some of the residents in actual "play" It's always nice to have a bit of time away from the street as well as on the street.
Well if they are trying to make us glad to see the back of Tracy it's working. She is such a bitch and I am starting to dislike her. How dare she interupt Peter when he ws snogging Maria, mind you I don't think he was too happy about it:lol: Last night we had an angry Peter, which is always good to see, as well as a cheeky, romantic one. He's certainly not backward in coming forward is he.
"I wouldn't mind a kiss to see me on my way":love:
Maria pecked him on the cheek and asked if that would satisfy him
"You would be disappointed if I said yes"
Then he grabbed her, swung her round and started to snog her:love: :heart: :wub: How romantic!
Deirdre was excellent last night when she was having that panic attack.
Janice still likeable, Vernon still likeable and I am slowly taking to Derek the delivery man.
Grandad Morton well sounds like we have someone with a dodgy past here and it looks like we are starting to be fed tit bits about the new family...
Brilliant viewing again.

Another great episode. I wondering is Paul hustling Dev and Steve in that they will bet big and he will become a better play and clean up. Loved Janice selling her jewellery for Leanne they really have a great relationship. Leanne seems more close to her ex step mum Janice than her real dad Les.

That is exactly what the little bugger is doing!:wub:

My heart went out to Janice last night espec when Leanne rejected the cash which Janice had porned her jewlery for. Mind you I do think that Janice is taking liberties with the Connor brothers by bunking off as and when she wants.
Loved it when Paul asked Liam where Janice was, Liam said he didn't know and Paul said something about how she's probably in the bog! It's just the casual way he comes out with things:lol: Like in the Rovers later when Dev was talking about big heads, again Paul just came out with a casual comment.:lol:

Your jokes are getting worse Richie. Its a wonder you didnt say that when he had the fight with Charlie Stubbs he was a black and blue Peter
Watch out there is a double act about:rotfl:
I have one of my own:
Two men sitting on a bench one called PETER one called PAUL,
PETER is leaving, PAUL is leaving,

When Tracy mentioned Sexy Specs, I went back to the days of Mike. :o
Pretty good tonight. Varying performances from both actresses but overall they did a good job, especially Anne Kirkbride.
Script seemed to drift in another direction at times but otherwise it was alright.
Enjoyable viewing overall. :)

It was a brilliant episode, usuall these two handers dont usually work as you get bored of them, but corrie last night had me gripped from start to finish. It was a pretty hard storyline yet they still made it humourous. When she said the best bit in you is Samir, and that he was the love my life as he said deirdre was beautiful and Tracy replied, He could hardly string a sentence together in English. And then she was saying Tracy Barlows mum the Slag and that she didnt know who shed wake up in the bed the next day. It was great stuff. And really well written bringing in the past.

Another good double episode, so the Trial begins. Blanche as usual was on top form. Poor Deirdre she seems to be eating the fags. Leanne/Liam i loving already and they are not a couple yet.
Richie_lecturer
27-03-2007, 13:28
I enjoyed last night's episodes.
The best stuff ultimately came from the trial. Apart from Kate Ford's awful acting (back to normal), it was superb. Blanche was absolutely hilarious, and the look on Ken's face when he heard the events of the night before - Oh My God! Also LOVED that scene with Deirdre and Amy with the bubbles. Well done to Ken, Deirdre and Blanche, some of the best stuff I've seen in Corrie for yonks.
The rest was pretty good filler, even Dev was good! :o Still not keen at all on the Mortons though. Other than that an enjoyable couple of episodes, although I preferred the first more which was written by Jonathan Harvey, who wrote the two-hander on Sunday. He's been back on form for the last couple of episodes after a rather dour few months.

I agree Chris, clearly the best soap at the moment - I'm really enjoying every episode.
The two hander on Sunday between Deidre and "Tracy Luv" was Corrie at it's best, good acting and writing all round.
Corrie has an amazing set of actors, and they really are making the best of some of them at the moment. I love how the focus is on the Barlows/Connors and a few other characters that I reall enjoy.
The whole Tracy storyline has been compelling viewing, I hope Kate Ford goes out in style, one way or the other.

Loved last night's episode, how angry was Tracy:cheer: :cheer: and Deidre telling her barrister the truth - surely she has to be found guilty.
On the new family, I think it was the wrong time to introduce them, with all this going on, nobody is really interested in them at the mo.
Love the foreign worked at the factory - Janice's face is comical.
This weeks episodes of Corrie have been brilliant. Even Kate Ford's acting hasnt been too bad. The courtroom scenes are great and the pure venom in Tracyluv rant at her Barrister was great. All the while this has been going on other stries are continuing to bubble along nicely, The Mortons, Janice and Leanne, Janice and the Polish workers,
In my opinion this is where Corrie and Emmerdale score so well. Whilst there is always at least one or two major storylines going on there are always smaller ones going on so that when the big one finishes the other stories fit in seamlessly. Both these soap dont go for just one 'Sensational and Explosive' :rolleyes: storyline which when it finishes means there is nothing else of any interest happening.
Well I'm going to be the moaner this week.
Haven't really enjoyed Corrie this week as it has not been my kind of viewing, I cannot stand court trials they send me to sleep. To me this week the trial has just gone over old ground.
However I was pleasantly surprised by Sundays head to head which I thought would bore the pants off of me butit didn't and Ithink I actually enjoyed this episode.
I do enjoy the Barlows being central but just hate court trials, if it had been anything else then I would of found Corrie enjoyable this week.
Love the Mortons and am enjoying the build up to all the upcoming action on the cobbles.

I agree Alan 200% there is so much going on right now with Emmerdale/Corrie and this is why I don't mind the odd bit of cloud every now and then, they both always have something on the go. Also with these two soaps they cater for every viewer and every character has something happening whether it be "Mini" or "Major"

Now then, something I don't understand and perhaps a legal expert could help me out here. But I thought that if a solicitor or barrister knows that someone is guilty they are not allowed to defend them. They might think it but if they definitely know they can be accused of being an accessory after the fact.
Now that Tracy has told her solicitor the truth, shouldn't her solicitor tell the barrister and, indeed, the court otherwise she too is guilty of being an accessory?

Now the trial is over, why doesn't Ken tell Blanche, Peter and Adam the truth. Would this not be the best thing he could do to help Deidre? Her family would then see why she is in such a state and could help comfort her.

Great double episode i'm glad Tracey got sent down. I hope Deirdre or Ken tells everyone especially Claire and the rest of the family that Tracey was actually guilty and planned it all. I'm loving Leanne and Liam.
I agree, I hope that more people find out the truth, although it could have repercussions - especially for David if it becomes too widely known. There would always be someone, ie Norris who would tell the Police that some of the defence witnesses lied in court.
I'm not really getting the Tracey/Deirdre Mother/Daughter issues at the moment though. When Tracey is having a go at Deirdre why doesn't she stick up for herself a bit more rather that just take everything Tracey throws at her. I know she feels that she let Tracey down in Court but no-one really has a go at Tracey when she's blaming everyone else - especially her mother for her current situation.
What kind of Mother is Tracey anyway. She spent Sunday, knowing it could be her last day of freedom wandering the streets and talking to David and Claire, then went to the pub. She didn't spend any time at all with her own daughter.
I'm glad she was sent down, now hopefully Amy will have a chance in life away from the woman who sold her and who didn't spare her a thought when she murdered Charlie!
What will happen to David, he's living in a fantasy world and the excuse that he was nearly drowned in the canal when he was younger is wearing a bit thin.

lol, It was a good ending, more believeable than the not guilty verdict. It was good how it didnt drag onto 9 oclock like i htought it would. Thought the announcment in the pub was quite funny, everyone was like No, not guilty.
The Liam Leanne scenes were getting a bit boring. He was well and truley had.
Aww Steve was such a good day to little Amy tonight, and it was nice to see him and Michelle getting closer again. There hasn't been any one so right for steve since Karen!

No, Ronnie certainly wasn't right for him, and he had to go through losing her, as well. Michelle I think is better for him as she understands how it feels to be hurt, because she was with Sonny.

I'm surprised Leanne and Carla are so friendly i didn't think Carla would be friends with the lower class (or in Leanne's case the hooking class). Janice is being a cow and a bully.
Janice, remind me again why they rehired her - she's a foul mouthed little cretin, and not even funny or appealing with it.
Amy - I've only just released that she has manly eyebrows, thats all I can think of when I see her now!
Another great episode, the show still goes on without Tracy, which I wasn't sure if it would. Loved Blanche's oneliners and Sinbad's son with Liz in the pub. Carla and Leanne are both both great characters, look forward to seeing Leeane and Liam get together, they bounce off each other so well.
Corrie is 10x better than Eastenders at the moment!
Amy is the new Bethany Platt, she doesnt speak. I agree Bry its really good at the minute. Im loving Ken and Deirdre. She was funny last night when smoking " A new house rule " I never thought id say that. Janice again i agree, she is awful. At least we know why Joanne has been acting like that, but does no one in coronation street realise that Poland is in the EU, they have a right to be here.
The Mortons are taking some getting used to but there getting better each episode, its good that they are being bought in gently.
We were saying last night is why does one street and families they al have different accents. Its quite a musing. When it gets boring now we play guess the birthplace.
Loving Corrie again now all the court stuff is over with, although it did have it's moments.
Yes why the hell did they bring back Janice she is worse than ever, although she was good a couple of weeks ago with Leanne(should of known it was to good to last)(Going to get even madder with her over the next couple of weeks or so) also why ws Liam so soft with her. Doubt if Paul would of been:p :D
I like Viki the Polish worker and just love the way she stands her ground with "Motor mouth" I like Kasia also, even though she is really just a background character. Viki was right in what she said to Janice they have come over to work just like the English go overseas to start afresh and hope to find work.
The younger Mortons are now growing on me also and I think that they are becoming a very interesting family.
Steve - well what can I say? I like the way that Steve now has a couple of his own storylines as well as still being involved in most of the other ones (Big/major and mini) this is really working with him. Aww my heart just melts when I see him with Amy and it also melted at that end scene with Michelle where she mentioned "Cuddle":wub:
Loving the Barlows being central and more in the aftermath of the "trial" rather than last week in the "trial" Blanche is wonderful, as is Ken.
Yes the Connors/Mortons/Barlows/ Norris/Rita and a couple of others are really making Corrie for me right now.
I even quite like Vernon now.
Carla/Leanne - A good pairing and I think that they will make good friends, however I'm not too sure how Carla will react when she finds out what Leanne really does for a living. We may end up being surprised here given Carla's dodgy background.
Corrie is just shining and shining as is it's twin.

perhaps the bosses at corrie can hook Janice back up with Les and get rid of the pair of numpty's together along with Cilla.
Awww little Amy spoke! That was so cute, when she asked when her mum was going to come home. That was the high point for me, along with all the Morton stuff. I really like them.

I'm liking Jerry Morton more and more he was good of him to take cute adorable Finlay even though he isn't his son. The golf scenes were funny. I wish Deirdre or Ken would tell about Tracey i want everyone on the street to know. It was nice to see Bo Selecta in a cameo role i.e. Lillian from Shameless
Definitly tammy, Lilians the greatest, she should be a permanent character, maybe Norris new girlfriend. Shes great.
The best part was Eileen and Emma, hollys mum, she really does have a bit of a cheek asking for the baby back. I really hope Eileen gets to keep her.
I too am growing on the Mortons i think they could be quite interesting as time goes on. Thought seeing the nice side to Jerry was good him and Finlay in the tent, i thought what he said about the inside is always the same but the outside can be anywhere you want. The part with the old fridge made me laugh, Norris phoning the police.
Even the golf scenes last night were quite good.
I thought tonight was good. I like the Mortons and Claire, Gail and Sally getting drunk was so funny.

It was really funny last night. I'm really growing to like the Mortons, it was so funny with Gail, Sally and Claire getting drunk and when they caused the fence to fall down. :rotfl: A really enjoyable episode! Oh and i'm really starting to enjoy Liz and Vernon together, they make a good couple, and i wasn't too keen on him before.
what was with Corrie last night...it seemed...modern, never thought i'd use that word, had some right tunes blasting out at the party
I'm not taking to Sinbad and co though...

I STILL don't like them.
However...
it was so funny with Gail, Sally and Claire getting drunk and when they caused the fence to fall down. Yep.
i'm really starting to enjoy Liz and Vernon together, they make a good couple, and i wasn't too keen on him before.
I still don't like them, but that's mostly down to Vermin. I don't have a problem with Liz.
A quick shout for Eileen/Sue Cleaver. She was very good and I feel for her, caught between a rock and a hard place.
i agree about Eileen, Sue is a brilliant actress and is doing a good job at this presen storyline.
I hope Liz and Vermin don't go through with it! I really don't like him.
aww, it was quite cute when he proposed though, although i get the impression thats not what Liz was expecting.
Well by the proposal, I thought that either Liz was really really shocked or she doesnt really wnat to marry him

Hmmm.... slight criticism (sp?)..
The forensic people who spent so long there must be really bad at their jobs. If they had done proper investigation, wouldn't it have been slightly obvious that she never fell down the stairs, and can't they estimate an approximate time of death, so wouldn't the timings for when they called the ambulance been wrong? Also, the Connors didn't think things through very well.. when they do the post mortem, won't they also be able to tell she never fell down the stairs.. there won't be any bruising or anything :confused:. Also; Liam used Kashas clock in card to clock her in, so won't his fingerprints be on that, I know he's the boss, so could have touched it anyway, but would seem a little shifty to me anyway - although saying that, they probs didn't feel they had to print anything like that, but then if they didn't think it was suspicious, would the forensic guys have been called in? lol.
Maybe I'm thinking too much lol..
DaVeyWaVey
16-04-2007, 22:39
I'm not sure Lea. If someone witnessed her falling down the stairs at a certain time, would forensics actually bother with a certain time of death? :confused:
Anyway, it was a good two episodes tonight. That Vicky girl is excellent at acting, she showed her emotion of her friend's death really well. I'm growing to like the Connors even more too, especially Liam and Carla. I'm still not too keen on Paul though, he seems a bit wooden to me.
Chris_2k11
16-04-2007, 23:52
Absolutely pathetic, do the Connors really believe that the forensic people won't be able to find out how long she'd been dead for? Even I realised this and I must be half their age. Hate that Paul bloke too, such a bad actor. Liked Liam tonight, atleast he showed some consideration to the poor dead lass! Cashier :D:D or whatever you wanna call her
Sean Gallagher (aka Paul C) Is a very high profile, very successful and well established actor, he has been in dramas etc with other high profile and extremely well known actors/actresses such as Sean Bean and Liza Tarbuck. IMO he is absolutely brilliant and portrays the wonderful Paul Connor superbly. No way is he "wooden" and he certainly IS NOT a bad actor. People need to do their homework before critising. Anyway it's the same old, same old,successful actors/actresses, espec very popular ones, always get the most critisim:)
O.K there are flaws in the Kasia death storyline, just as there are in all storylines in anything, but it is not REAL, it is only make believe, fiction, if every detail, in every storyline was to be portrayed accurately then watching TV would be a bore and IMO you may as well park yourself on a seat in the street and watch the world go by. Soaps are entertainment, enjoyment and a way of chilling out at the end of the day.
The above is my opinion and the way I see things and not designed to be offensive to other people's opinions which of course are respected.
On the subect of Corrie one word FANTASTIC, with superb acting and brilliant characters.:) A soap which is just going from strength to strength. With regards to the way Kesia died she did in actual fact fall down the stairs whilst carrying heavy boxes.

But she did fall down the stairs.
I agree with everyone about the time of death though. I thought that while I was watching it and it really spoiled the whole episode for me.
I thought it was a really good episode even though slightly disturbing, that Paul didnt really bat an eyelid about what he was doing.
Carla is really growing on me, i thought she was good in the story and Liam, who I cant stand was good last night as well.

Yeah the connors have been great since they started. There were things that happened which you thought maybe shouldn't be allowed to have but they did, doesn't make it different, it was a fab episode, and only time will tell if they get found out or not.

17-04-2007, 15:59
Another good double episode from Corrie. I'm loving the Connors at the moment they really are a great addition as is Jerry Morton now too gone on the rest of his family yet. You could see that Liam and Carla were distraught but Paul wasn't. Derek/Liz/Vernon storyline is boring.
Loved Corrie last night, the Connors really shone, a great family and loved seeing how they reacted in a crisis.
Jack was funny with Liam and Jamie, enjoyed them scenes, especially when he said "at least i'd die with birds and booze" :lol:
The only criticism i have, like everyone else has said, a post mortem will reveal the time of death surely?
Richie_lecturer
17-04-2007, 19:09
Carla is really growing on me, i thought she was good in the story and Liam, who I cant stand was good last night as well.
Yep, I agree. I'm finally warming to Carla now, and Liam is good with Leanne. I'm afraid I don't like Paul much though.
Jack was good (as always) and much missed of course.
I thought the fall was well done, but unsure about the PM like everyone else.
apparantly a PM is only done if they died in suspcious cirumstances or the cause of death is unkwown.
Seen as Carla saw what caused the death - falling, and the forensics confirmed she fell, as the police man told Paul and Liam, then maybe they dont suspect foul play and take her word for it - hence no PM.
I'm not an expert on this though so could be wrong, maybe Alan could fill us in?
CrazyLea
17-04-2007, 22:16
But she did fall down the stairs.
Shows how much I paid attention :lol:.
Although - the police did say there was going to be a PM, that's why got confused Bry.
But I'm not saying it wasn't a good episode, cause it was :). And I really like Paul too, don't think he's wooden ha.
Really don't like the Mortons or what ever they're called though lol. Done nothing for my.. yet.
Interesting and enjoyable posts:)
I'm no expert either (although the amount of CSI I watch I ought to be:lol: ) but going from my own knowledge, the way I understand things is that if there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding a death then a PM isn't usually done.(As BB has already said above) As for the time of death being established, now this is a confusing area, I have heard that it's not possible to tell the exact time of death but only possible to give an approx time. As for the rigamorphis (stiffness)/decay of a body, how fast this happens I beleive depends on the temp of a room that a body is in, obviously the cooler the room the slower the decaying etc.
Now I haven't actually seen Monday's episode yet only read the update but from what I can gather Kasia's body was only left for approx 2 hours before an ambulance was called which I beleive realistically this period of time is the approx of time which is often given for a death, i.e between the hours of 6 and 8.
I know that there is mixed feelings from people about the character Paul (which is fair enough because it would be boring if we all agreed all the time)because of his callousness and bad boy ways but I love characters like this, he's not all bad he is very loving and caring with it, also cheeky and playful and at the end of the day he just deals with things differently, "in his way". Most of the time I beleive he just hides his true emotions to be strong for those he cares most about, Liam/Carla/Michelle/Ryan, his family. Paul is just a big softie really.:D (Paul for me, is the Matt King/Jake Moon and Paul Robinson of the Cobbles all rolled into one with a few extras)
I'm glad that Jack is being interacted with the younger members of the cast, Liam/Jamie and am looking forward to seeing this scene.
Sunday's episode
I really enjoyed and of course thought that Carla/Paul scenes were just adorable.
Liam/Carla both growing on me more but still haven't taken to these two 100%, Liam I have taken more to than Carla whom I just love with Paul of course.
Vicky is a fantastic addition and would love her to replace "Motor Mouth" Battersby.
I enjoyed Liz/Derek and hope that Liz dumps Vernon but I do like him more now, although I do find it very irritating when he keeps using the bar top of the Rover's as a drum! Vernon works very well with Steve and Betty two more very wonderful and commical characters.
Quite enjoying the baby Holly storyline too, Eileen is another great character. Corrie just have so many right now and to be honest at the end of the day I don't think you can really single any one single "character"(Actor/actress) out, as they are all fabulous as are the storylines and writers who write them, just a real shame that so many great characters are about to disappear:( still at least it is their decision.
If you go to google and type in "time of death at scene" it brings up a string of very interesting articles on the subject.
From what I can make out the time of death is established from body temperature and tissue. With regards to a PM it may not be necessary to do a full one, a partial or selective one maybe done only.
So I think that Corrie have done their homework with regards to this issue.
In this case there would have to be a Post Mortem. She died of a sudden or unexpalined seath. Falling down the stairs would not be sufficient. A post mortem will establish how she died. I.e did she have a heart attack, stroke, seizure, or the like befor she died. Did she die as the reult of a frature incurred during the 'fall'. It is the law that a PM will be carried out to establish the cause of death. The death occurred in a factory of an otherwise healthy woman. It will be treated as a suspicious death until the PM and subsequent inquest are held.
The CONners are not out of the would yet.
Rigormortis sets into a body quite soon after death and will then after a period of hours completely disappear. The PM will give them an approx time of death. Blood tests wil measure things like the amount of oxygen in the blood which is also an idicator of time of death, it will check for toxics in her system.
A PM will show if there are any other bruises on her body and will seek and explanation for them.
What I think will be the CONners undoing is the fact so many people are involved and they will never all keep their stories straight. Vicky being an immigrant from Poland will fear the police and drop them all in it by telling the truth. (remember you heard it here first folk). Sally will also feature in it when the truth comes out. I feel this story will form the basis of Paul's departure later this year.

My sentiments too along with the fact that Carla tells all to Michelle about Dean
I just hope that it won't be another prison exit or death.
I don't think that the Immigrant Death storyline will be his exit, definitely will be part of it, I think there are going to be a serious of events which have already started from two other ongoing storylines (Carla and her Dungaree business and Paul's secret), that will eventually lead to whatever lies in wait for him.
Well I wasnt expecting that from corrie on monday, seems like an interesting storyline, but I mean they must get found out, I mean she had been dead for longer, and said that they saw it happen, if that wanted to get away with it they should of said they werent there at the time.
Brilliant episodes Monday and Wednesday with brilliant acting.
Have to disagree about Paul's reaction to Kesia's death, the way I saw it was that he was just as shocked and upset as Liam/Carla, infact I'd say more so going by the look on his face when he first arrived at the factory, obviously very bad memories were brought back to him once again. The only reason Paul cooked up the "cover up" plan was to protect Carla, his wife, the woman he loves with all his heart and like he said there is nothing he wouldn't do to protect her. Paul felt as sick as both Liam/Carla did about the way they had handled things, this was obvious by his reply to Liam telling him that he felt sick about what they had done where Paul replied "You think I don't? You think I haven't been bricking it all day when we were lying to the police?" Paul had to stay strong otherwise everyone would crumble, he's the one at the end of the day who holds the family together, like I have said before he is the back bone of the Connor family.
Something I noticed about Kasia was that she was carrying three boxes and incorrectly, so in a small way she was also responsible for her fall.
Wednesday - I just loved the scene with Paul and the health and Saftey Officer the look on Paul's face at the end of that scene was wonderful:wub: (More brilliant acting from the wonderful Sean). I have been thinking for weeks about the fact that those big heavy rolls of material were stored upstairs, which meant the girls had to lug them up and down the stairs, I was thinking just how dangerous that was and surely they should be stored downstairs like they used to be during Mike's era.
Of course during these three episodes there were for me some gorgeous Paul/Carla scenes. Also enjoyed the brothers clashing and arguing.
Loved Paul's PJ's:wub: :wub: (would of preferred the T shirt off though:lol: )
Other areas of these wonderful episode:
Loved the brekkie scene with Liz/Steve/Vernon when Liz was telling Vernon how embarrassed she was when he stood her up in that restaurant and the ever wonderful and gorgeous Steve piped up (all casual like he does)
"And that's saying something going out with you":rotfl:
Did we really have to have all that screen time with Vernon in his vest:sick:
Steve/Amy asleep on the sofa together :wub:
Loved the Jack/Jamie/Liam scene - I can see some good times coming up here. Some wonderful comments from Jack, "Birds and Booze" then the one about Liam's grandad spinning in his grave, only for Liam to tell him that he was in sheltered accommodation.
Liam/Leanne they kissed at last but somehow I think that stormy times lie ahead.
Lots of great viewing to come with lots of unravelling, betrayal, heartbreak and consequences for the Connors and of course we have Clare/Cassey , Liam/Leanne
Holly/Eileen/Jason, Jack/Vera and on the list goes...

Liam/Leanne are great and work well together. However there is a lot of muddy water to get through. At the moment the Street's new hot romance is of course Steve/Michelle and I think that Liam/Leanne are being set up as the next one.
I like Eileen she is great but poor thing she never seems to have any lasting happiness. I hope that she gets tokeep Holly and that Jason will change his mind. However rumour has it Jerry asks Eileen out for a drink to drown her sorrows, they would make a great couple, better than Jerry/Gail which has been rumoured for a while. I hope that they aren't going to do another fight between Gail/Eileen over a man!

Paul is so cunning he knew exactly how to work Sally i'm loving his character. I wanted Claire to tell everyone about Tracey now she knows. Jerry Morton is a great character and you can see he is a great dad.
It was so sad with Eileen and gail regards to baby Holly, Sue Cleaver was brilliant. It was really emotional.
Jerry is so funny.
What a truly moving episode last night with Eileen (the wonderful Sue Cleaver) having to return baby Holly/Chloe. Wonderful emotional acting. Brilliant:clap: :clap:
She is defrinitly one of the most underrated actresses in the soap. She was brilliant. She really outshone Gail who gets all the storylines.
Another fantastic week on the cobbles with my heart going out to Paul and Eileen this week.
Eileen (Sue)was fantastic and I relly liked the interaction between her and Gail, hope this is a start of a good friendship.
Paul (Sean) as usual was brilliant (just love all his little tongue actions:wub: and of course those expressions)(he looked so gorgeous in Sunday's episode, in his jeans, with that pose whilst standing in Liam's doorway:wub: :wub: :love: ) I feel so sorry for him as he is caught in the cross fire between Carla/Liam and as usual is and will pay the price. However Paul also has committed the act of the "betrayal" by not backing Carla, but he did the right thing by backing Liam. Carla's betrayal was far worse as it was one of Paul's "trust" Very sad and tragic times ahead for the Connors.
The Mortons really like them and they provided most of the comedy this week.
Clare is getting better, unfortunately Ashley is not.
Jack/Vera nice to see them but this is all deja vu.
Janice/Kelly MUST go!
Liz/Derek - so glad that she is doing the dirty on Vern.
Steve - Lovely as ever.
Sally/Hayley great team work and are fantastic leaders. Paul was wonderful when he made the job offer to Sally, he really is a bugger:wub: :lol:
Ken/Blanche shining as usual.
Looking forward to all the upcoming action, even though it will be very emotional and sad.
Corrie has had a wonderful week. Every storyline as great.
The Mcdonalds are shining. They're easily my favs.
I also adore the Mortons as well as the Conners.

I also adore the Mortons as well as the Conners.
Corrie has a lot of brilliant upcoming storylines which have grown or been spun from previous ones,(Brilliant the way in which this is being done, good quality and well thought out writing and scripting) with the theme mainly being emotion and betrayal for most of the streets families/residents.
The Barlows - Stormy times ahead and possibly the end of an era.
The Connors - Betrayal and tragedy
The Peacocks - Betrayal/Deception and break of trust.
The Mortons and Duckworths I feel will possibly provide most of the light hearted and commical moments during the other very dramatic and emotional storylines.
We also have romance with Liz/Derek again light hearted, then of course Michelle and Steve which will be of a more in depth nature. (Again we have the wonderful Steve (Simon) in the thick of things.
Just one moan about Corrie they are going over board on the death front, time to go in a different direction here.

Good episode from Corrie last night Michelle and Liam were very impressive. I'm glad the Connors are getting a big storyline its a shame about Paul leaving though he is a great character.
I thought it was brilliant episode last night, it was great performance from Kym ryder, when she was crying on the step with Carla crying she showed how good she was. I thought that she was great. Liam was great as well. He was really emotional and believable. It was really emotional.
Jack and Vera were great as ever. I really like Molly. Shes great. Much better than when she was in Emmerdale.
Great episode tonight. Kim Ryder was really impressive, I can see her winning best newcomer at the awards.
Those were my thoughts exactly when I saw that episode
Ken and Dreary are really doing my head in at the minute. Everything else is really good but i want to turn it of when she starts whinging again. Molly Jack Vera and Tyrone are currently the best ones in it.

Rather enjoyed tonights episode. I agree that Kym was good. I used to not like her, but she's growing on me. It helps that she works along side Steve alot. Steve is awesome :).
Coronation Street is on top form at the moment!
All of the Connors are amazing characters, a great bunch of actors there especially Kym Ryder and the amazing Alision King. A family on the verge of breaking point - love it. And so glad that Michelle and Steve finally kissed, still a long way to go until they get together me thinks...
Great to see Jack and Vera getting some screentime, they are hilarious, and Tyronne and Molly are kind of sweet together. Ken and Dedire - the cracks are showing, can't wait to see Denise return later this week

Actually I thought that was a brilliant bit of writing, contrasting the banality of everyday life against the trauma Ken and Deidre are going through with their marriage with Ken trying to get some semblance of normality back but Deidre having none of it.

Another good double episode from Corrie. Steve and Michelle are gonna make a great couple when and if it happens. I'm liking the Connor family more and more. What happened Vera? I don't know how Ken is putting up with Deirdre she is more of a pain than Blanche is now.

What the hell was all that crap about Ken buying brocolli. I nearly hit mute when they were on screen.
I thought that was excellent too. Nice to see little things like broccoli used as an example of the state of Ken and Deirdre's marriage. Reminds me of the rain mac with Stan and Hilda many years ago, for the same sort of reasons.
Kym Ryder has been good recently, and Alison King is starting to grow on me more and more.

I agree the Mortons just aren't doing anything for me. All I can think of Jerry as is Sinbad, and each of them kids are just bloody iritating. I hope they get the axe sooner rather than later. The Connors are where it's at atm :thumbsup: :D

They could have picked something better than that for them to argue about, I mean brocolli?? Come on!
I think by saying that you've actually reinforced the point about how brilliant it was.
Coronation Street is on top form at the moment!
All of the Connors are amazing characters, a great bunch of actors there especially Kym Ryder and the amazing Alision King. A family on the verge of breaking point - love it. And so glad that Michelle and Steve finally kissed, still a long way to go until they get together me thinks...
Great to see Jack and Vera getting some screentime, they are hilarious, and Tyronne and Molly are kind of sweet together. Ken and Dedire - the cracks are showing, can't wait to see Denise return later this week Yes, Corrie has been on top form these past few weeks, currently loving all of it apart from the stupid Morton clan. Axe these nutters please.

I think it will be the same with the Mortons. They have potential and given the excellent storywriters on Britains favourite soap they should become just as popular. I never watched Brooky so cant comment. To me Jerry is Ken off The Royal

I feel sorry for Blanche, I think Ken was right to leave. I'm liking Rita friend i thought it was nice and thoughful what she said to Ken.
Does everyone know on the street that Tracey was guilty or is it just Ken, Deirdre and Claire? Does Blanche know?
Also when did Michelle and Sean make up? After all he slept with her fiancee.
mind you i think sean and michelle made up as sonny was the last piece of drama she had in her life. Things have moved on like finding out her brothers killed the love of her life.

Why does that Morton lad sleep in the shed? Why doesn't he have his own bedroom??
One word to describe Corrie and the acting at the moment Brilliant.
Jane Danson, Kym Ryder, Sean Gallagher, Bill Roache, Rob James-Collier, excellent.
Paul/Leanne (sean/Jane) were excellent together last night, another two great actors who work well together along with the others they interact with. Lovely scenes, espec the end of the "Hotel" encounter.
Really looking forward to the coming weeks
Why does that Morton lad sleep in the shed? Why doesn't he have his own bedroom??The Mortons we last in the queue when the Tardises known as soap houses were being handed out. Most soap houses seem to be able to house the population of a small village. Obviously the Barlows have the same problem as poor Ken has moved out. Or maybe thats because the Rovers needs their toilet back.:searchme:
lol, i think it does add a bit of realism with him kipping in the shed as it was a bit silly to understand that that number of people lived in that house.
Corrie is really on top form at the minute, from the writing to the acting. Everythings great.

If Gail wants to object to the shed on planning grounds she should do it on the basis that it is being used as living quarters rather than its dimensions. She'd be more likely to win then.
Perhaps I should offer my services...for a fee.:)
Why is Liz saying to Deirdre that she has so much to lose if her affair get out? She had alot more to lose than Vernon when she was at it whilst married to Jim and it didn't stop her then. Would Vernon leaving be such a great loss?

Yes she seems to be getting quite broad around the rear and the belly. Maybe she is on steroids or sumthing because her cancer has returned

Very dull episodes last night, none of it interested me at all. Worst since about February i'd say.

Yes they are both very good.
I've enjoyed the baby Freddie storyline has well, despite the chopping and changing. Some excellent performances from Sue Cleaver, Julia Haworth and Stephen Arnold.

Yes despite the major changes they have had to make to the Freddie storyline had we not known it would still have been a good storyline. Why though dosent Claire give the local plod 'Caseys' mobile number. After all she used to phone Claire all the time.
Loving the Leanne and Carla storyline too. Judging by the spoilers its not too long before the fantastic Sue Cleaver gets a storyline. Two men vying for her affections. Pity one of them is the King of the Donars.
Dunno who I dislike the most Vermin Vomit or Dirty Derek. Anyway mark my words that slapper Liz McDonald is going to come to a sticky end. All we need is Jimbo to get out of the Big House so we do and then Liz will know all about a Big Mac. Do you want fries with that punch on the mouth mucker. Along as she doesnt end up with a Kids Club Meal

I thought that was a really good episode in my honest opinion i am probably the only one but i really dislike Leanne character for some reason.
I am gutted Paul is leaving i loved him and Carla fiery relationship :wub: and i am quite sad it has ended like this,:crying: also when they were in the flat and he was telling Carla how much he loved her he seemed quite scared of losing her.
Carla was great tonight really funny :rotfl: but you could she was hurting.:(
Also Paul seemed like he really loved his wife why is he using escorts
