anna could have waited to talk to dev about the flat than go his house when his kids just lost their mother
Thought it was a bit insensitive of anna tohgo to devs to talk about the flat!!

Asda and Aldi :p
What a pile of CRAP that was. As if Dev would not ask Roy whom he and Sunita have known for years, to her funeral. Instead along comes St. Ella of the Back Room and Sunita's former lover. More proof if it were needed that Corrie is going down the pipes and becoming the Michelle Collins Show. Can they not admit she has been a complete failure and get shot of her and her brood

and to let karl mind his kids
i bet we will see karl and dev all best friends soon enough
It was ridiculas wasn't it!! A if Stella would go to the funeral.
It was ridiculas wasn't it!! A if Stella would go to the funeral.
The explanation they gave (that Stella was just going to support Dev and the kids) didn't ring true either. Would Dev want someone who hated Sunita at her funeral? I know I wouldn't.
The producers have an obsession with St. Ella of the Backroom. She has been pushed into every major storyline since she arrived on the street. Her character is as good as he supposed Mancunian accent
The thing is though dev has never interacted with her before this. They are getting far to much screen time for my liking.
I cannot stand Simon either and I know that is really bad as he is a child but he's just like Peter. And what's with him calling Stella gran!!

Any mention of Amber I thought she'd be back for her dad and the twins
I still think having Stella die from the fire Karl started would have been better
I think seeing how Karl is behaving now especially around the police he must have pulled out Sunita's tube and killed her
even the "humorous" scenes of steve and his suit felt very forced tonight and as for the acting from the chap who plays dev my god appalling
eileen is a head wrecker no consideration from her barging into the "wake" and shouting at paul, he wishes he was in another fire when she is yelling I bet

Who were the two "random" Indians at Sunita's funeral? Amber and the aunties didn't come (no real explanation) but these other two who we've never seen before did.
I thought the scene of Steve's suit popping at the service was very poor and distasteful. There is a place for so-called humor but that wasn't one of them.

Was one of them not some sort of religious figure. Dev introduced him at the door to Steve and Lloyd. The whole storyline was poor IMHO with the inclusion of St. Ella and Sunita's former lover and murderer Karl. There are loads of other people on the street who would have been at the funeral except they arent flavour of the month with the Corrie producers who foist this ridiculous pairing on us at every oppurtunity. I know its only a soap but some realism is still required.

No, not him. There were two women "extras" who attended.

Owen told her she should do that but she said she didn't want them involved. Of course, it is yet another totally ridiculous storyline involving Social Services. Why is it that soap scriptwriters have no idea how Social Services work?
waiting for Tim to fail spectacularily now!!! The 'birth parent' taking over storyline has annoyed me, so looking for Tim to take a big fall...
I wish tim and Faye would go and live in a far off land away from the street, highly irritating the pair of them.

Yeah I think Owen has paid 10k already. I think their arrangement was 5k when Tina agreed to have the baby for them, 5k when she was confirmed to be pregnant and 5k when she hands the baby over.
Katy is just annoying me. I don't think being close with David came into it, it was just so she could get to the dentist. If she'd have gone ahead with the surrogacy, I don't think this would have happened.
is katy that close with david that he could take josef to the park never remember any scenes with them before
Although they may not have had many (or even any) scenes together, Katy and David have been close neighbours for years, and are of a similar age, so it's safe to assume they know each other reasonably well - we know that the residents of Coronation Street only socialise with each other :p . I didn't feel it was out of order for her to put Joseph into his safekeeping.
Just watching the Corrie omnibus. If Kylie's 21 weeks pregnant then the baby can't be Nick's, as the dates are two weeks out. Then again, Ronnie's dates never added up in EastEnders for James to be Jack's and the writers overlooked that.
parkerman
12-05-2013, 10:13
Yes, but dates are only an approximation...aren't they? Isn't the date worked out from the date of the last known period rather than knowing an actual conception date? You should probably know better than me!!!

thank god for the hayley, sylvia and roy scenes

They don't really do subtle do they? The whole of the first half of the first episode was about how much Gary loved Izzy and Izzy apologising for thinking he fancied Tina. It was laid on with a trowel. And what happens then? Well, blow me down, Gary makes a pass at Tina. Who would ever have seen that coming??????

poor roy, way too much of stella and her bloody family tonight
It's a shame Roy did not receive his father's letter earlier. Not only would he have had the chance to meet him, but I think that there could have been some interesting scenes between him and Sylvia. Wonder if Roy will meet his half siblings at some point :hmm:
It would be good to see Karl bossed around by Gail and to try and put up with it for Stella's sake, but that'll never happen.
Roy, Hayley and Sylvia's scenes last night were fantastic and so well acted. I was very affected by Roy's devastation on learning that his father was dead :( David Neilsen should get all the awards going.

It took me some time too, Katy. Your namesake, the Corrie Katy, seems to have had a complete personality transplant since she was with Ches. I take it they are training her up to be the new Street sex symbol when Tina leaves....
Why has he shaved his hair off! I was really surprised! took me a while to recognise it was Steve.
He does this every summer time ... hate it, the baldy look does not suit him at all

I know that it's something the actor chooses to do, rather than the character, but it's a golden opportunity for comedy missed. In real life, who would get a hatchet-job haircut like that and not get the p*ss taken out of them by their mates?
I'm still really enjoying the Roy, Hayley and Sylvia storyline - it's by far the best at the moment, in my opinion - but am getting slightly irritated with Hayley. She's been married to Roy for a long time now and should have a good understanding of him, so the fact that she keeps pushing and pushing him is getting hard to take. Surely she should know when he needs to be left alone? Sylvia has a better understanding of Roy, which I find surprising.
Probably making way for her to leave ... departing characters tend to act differently all of a sudden
what is up with beth's son, is he getting an actual storyline?

More than half the cast.
imo eastenders has a great cast of actors and terrible script writers, corrie has some stinkers when it comes to actors, but a very good script and production team which saves them.
at the end of the day corrie escapes a lot of stick because its the media's darling!
Gary, Izzy, Katy and Owen are annoying me. Can't help but hope that the baby turns out to be Tina and Tommy's. I wouldn't want a child to be dragged into that.
So Izzy found about Gary and Tina, I didnt think that would happen! Oh....wait.....no I did, i think i saw an advert about it...about once a day for the last week!
Although now it is out in the open, i cant help but think that they owen/windasses are going to get even more annoying!
And Anna should seriously just adopt Joseph! She seems to be his main adult carer!

Was Emily looking after Hope and Ruby last night? If she was that was a bit unfair of Fiz and Tyrone to land her with the job. After all, Emily has been a regular at The Rover's for 50 years, so maybe it would have been nice for her to be at the re-opening rather than them.
my sister said that! poor Emily hasnt been able to have a glass of sherry in the Rovers for years thanks to her babysitting duties!

I was watching with my mum and we were like so they've been slating Katy for leaving Joseph and then all three of them go and do the same. I feel sorry for Emily, watching one child is one thing but she's suddenly got three of them.
And I was surprised by the way the Rovers Refurb has turned out. It looked exactly the same in the pictures, but last night it did look slightly different to the old one.

I think they've just been a bit too overbearing for Tina to deal with of late. I don't know why they made such a song and dance of Tina quitting the job with Owen. At 7 months pregnant they should have been happy that she wasn't going to attempt working two jobs, and I would've thought it obvious that the Rovers was her preferred job.
Don't understand why Tina and Gary had to keep on going discussing his attempt to kiss her .. they sorted it out after it happened in the flat and that should have been the end of it ...

I guess if you need a babysit on short notice and probably for free, Coronation Street is the place to be. Too bad its not so simple in real life. Someone needs to point out to Katy and Ches that they were wrong, that they weren't ready for a baby at 16. On Corrie they make being a young parent seem far too easy, want to go out, just pawn your kid off on the nearest neighbor.
Katy barely knows Ryan and like the fool she seems to be, will be playing happy families with him far too soon. Give the baby to Anna. If Izzy and Gary break up, will they return the baby to Tina? Its like musical chairs, except with babies and children, not chairs.

At 7 months pregnant they should have been happy that she wasn't going to attempt working two jobs, and I would've thought it obvious that the Rovers was her preferred job.
Doing admin and accounts work for Owen has to less stressful than being on her feet for a few hours behind the pub but then Owen would be her boss and that cant be much fun :p

Definitely. I think the Armstrongs / Windasses have gone too far with checking on Tina of late and if I was Tina, I would have quit to get some space, whether Gary had tried it on with her or not.

Guessing that this could end up in a custody battle.
... if Tina ever does decide to hand the baby over.

What is up with Steve MacDonald, he is acting like a right plank, pulling funny faces, acting camp.
Or is it leading up to a new storyline with him in a relationship with Sean Tully?

a very good week for corrie. the surrogacy storyline was well acted, but for me was overshadowed by the carla/rob storyline. i know i sound like a stuck record but for me alison kings performance was outstanding. she showed every emotion from being hurt, to protecting her little brother and then being angry. there are good soap actors and then there's alison king.
i can only think of a couple of other actors who fall into the same catergory, lindsay coulson from eastenders and emma atkins from emmerdale.
I agree I really enjoy all of Carla's performances I think that she is great.
I have always thought that and loved her when she was Lynda Block in Dream Team.

I think the baby Jake story line will be too predictable.Tracy acting mad has a hatter this week. I doubt Tracy will get her comeuppence, although it would be nice. Tracy does not seem to realize that she is a middle aged woman with no skills, who can't keep a man and will probably spend her life alone. Once her kid grows up and moves on and her parents pass what is there for her? I think her coming to realization with that would make a good story.

When Rob first came in to sign the agreement, Michelle told him he had to sign it in four places and she had marked them with green post-it notes. When he came back the second time to sign, although the green post-it notes were still clearly visible, he only signed once. So what happened to the other three signatures that were necessary and does that mean that in fact he hasn't signed over his share of Underworld yet?

Why isn't Gary and Izzy at the hospital with the baby as much as Tina is, they should be living there until the little fella is all ok to come home
how can tina pay owen back she is broke
Rita lends her the money
And Tina has told the hospital not to let Izzy and Gary in to see the baby,
And in reality you can't get within 100 metres of a baby unit without keycodes and swipe cards to unlock doors,
So if they did go to the hospital they would be sat in the main entrance or the canteen!!
Sloppy scriptwriting last night. The Rovers, having been completely destroyed in a fire, has been open for five minutes but in that short time have had a crate of pineapple juice go out of date! If they can't come up with better dialogue for an actress of Sue Johnstone's calibre they should get Karl to put her out of her misery. Being finished off by her "knight in shining armour" would be priceless.

Emily's House
Going back a bit, Emily took out an equity release on her house with Richard Hillman. She gave the money to Spider who set up a business. What was the outcome of this, who owns the house? Did Richard Hillman have the deeds. Would these then belong to Gail? Or did Emily pay the money back? Who to?
At the same time, the Duckworths lost their money in his scam investment business. I would imagine it was their money he paid to Emily.
Did Emily end up quids in with the money and the house back, and the Duckworths losers.
Was any of this ever resolved, or did the story just fizzle out.

I think Hayley might have got some bad news from the doctor :(

Tim should have taken Faye to Anna, explained he had to go away and made sure she was there. He should then have phoned Anna every day (at least) to make sure she was ok. It is entirely his fault in my opinion. He's the adult. He shouldn't have put it all on to Faye.

I know you're right, Parkerman, and I would agree with you if this were a real-life case, but I find Anna, Owen and Faye so dislikeable that I'm afraid my sympathies were with Tim last night. He's not a good father, but he's not evil either.
The way Anna was ranting at him was so hypocritical. If she were any kind of mother she would have kept in close contact with Faye when she went to live with Tim - Anna should have been inviting Faye for tea regularly and speaking to her on the phone every day - her dirty clothes and extreme hunger would have been immediately obvious then.
Anna's won now because Faye knows Tim is a terrible father - so what's with trying to run Tim out of town to prevent him hurting Faye again?? Faye still loves her dad so would be incredibly hurt if he left.
parkerman
06-07-2013, 19:04
I agree with the last part. It is completely wrong to hound Tim out of Faye's life. He is her father and naturally she loves him and wants to see him as much as possible. It is just wrong to threaten him to get him to leave.
sally should have brought gail back some peanuts and tim with the wine :p

Was just catching up on Corrie from last night, great episodes again. Can see a little spark developing there with Tim and Sally. It would be nice for him to develop a relationship on screen. And I hope he doesnt go, cos I think he's a nice enough person. Just finds being a dad tough. Nice that Sally can see that. Having said that it's best that Faye is back with Anna and Owen. They are good for her. I know Owen likes to throws his weight around but you can see he cares about Faye a lot.
Feel sorry for Sinead such a nice girl and would be great for Chesney. I dont think Chesney and Katy belong together. They both clearly want different things out of life. Chesney is way too set in his ways for Katy. Sinead strikes me as more of a 'girl next door' type lol.
I think i'm going to find it hard seeing David's destruction of Nick and Gail in the next few months. Seems like it may run till xmas. I'm wondering if Leanne will understand David's antics when she finds out about Nick and Kylie. It's tough though, Leanne has made a lot of mistakes in her past. Would they work it out? I don't know how to feel about Gail. I know she's got her family's best interests at heart. I think her keeping this a secret, is her trying to keep her family together. She should really try to take a bit of a back seat though. She does get a little bit too involved sometimes. But what would you do if you faced with that decision? Its a tough situation.
Plus I love Hayley :)
