Several references to the old days last night.
The Ogdens.
Len Fairclough.
The short lived Claytons with that dress for the Duckies.
Very impressive. :thumbsup:
And jack singing brought back memories of Vince St. Clair:)Quote:

I know there has been many new faces in the street over the last few years some good, some rotten. But I doubt that veiwers in 30 or 40 years from now will remember Cilla or Les, Joanne from the factory or even evil David with great fondness that we will remember our Vera with.
well i thought paul was too good to be true after all how could anything good come from terry duckworth, imagine stealing jack's identity to get a 20 grand loan he could easily land his grandparents in it if he doesnt pay it back
He is the spawn of Terry 'Sell the kid'' Duckegg what do you expect
but one thing that bothers me i always thought terry's son was called tommy, so where did paul come from?
Tommy is the son that he had with Lisa. Paul is the offspring of a dalliance with Andrea Clayton. There is I think a third one Brad
Oh happy days...........:lol: The funniest storyline ever of any soap.Quote:

Call me narrowminded but I cant look at Micheal Stark without thinking Sinbad, it's spoiling my enjoyment of his character and the storyline with Eileen :thumbsdow
Well you will be glad to know that the Ashley/Claire/KC storyline reaches its climax next week.. I dont think they have done too bad considering the storyline had to be drastically rewritten to take account of the similarities with Maddy McCann.Quote:

And I was just thinking what happened with that girl who fell down the stairs in the factory and died it was a while ago. Carla and Paul covered it up but what happened the police and her friend Vicky (was it Vicky?) seem to have forgetten all about.
Good episode tonight - I can sense Corrie improving now with this Hayley storyline starting. Some brilliant acting tonight with Hayley at the funeral and her finding the letter, ripping it up and throwing it in the canal. Some of the reactions towards Hayley at the funeral was pretty shocking so i was so glad when Roy stuck up for her! I'm glad Becky is involved in this storyline too - she's a fantastic addition.
The Hayley stuff is certainly developing nicely. It could be Corrie's saviour this September, along with David Platt. I also enjoyed the stuff with Norris, Emily and Doreen.
Still don't like the Mortons, and thank god the Claire stuff ends soon.
And yes, Vince Sinclair was :thumbsup: ...back in the day.....
Good last night with the Hayley story, its stuff like this that the show needs to get back to.
Good episode poor hayley this will be a good storyline. I'm tried of Ashley/Claire/Casey storyline thank god its over soon. So we can see Liam is sort of developing a thing for Carla even though i hope it doesn't happen. I like to see him with Jodie it would be an interesting pairing. I'm loving Eileen/Jerry :cheer: :cheer:
What a load of rubbish tonight, this Ashley/Casey plot has been bizzare from the word go and tonight was no exception, the photos on the wall were just too much. The whole thing was so predictable, I think we all knew she wasn't going to jump.
:lweek:
I have to agree, the highlight was the little morton girl puking in the taxi.Quote:

i think its a good storyline with the ecstasy tablet and bethany but its very unrealistic that anyone would even think about leaving david babysitting a 7 year old child,
I wouldnt trust him with a dog let alone a child
Not sure about unrealistic. After all, David has never harmed Beth before now.
I felt last night was a bit poor despite the hype. Well acted by Sarah and David, but a dodgy script ruined any impact the scenes at the hospital may have had. The kid who plays Bethany is terrible as well.
Roy, Hayley and Becky were also good, but the rest was rather dull and uninspiring. All in all a bit average.
yeah, i didn't think they let sarah rip at david enough, they should have at least let her get a slap in. and the girl who plays bethany has always been terrible, the kid playing joshua puts her to shame!Quote:

It would be totally unexpected to most people as they wouldn't expect Corrie to do such a thing and I think it would really shock people and get them talking about the show again ! They need something really attention grabbing like this to happen as i'm sure i'm not the only one losing interest in the show at the moment.
no i think that would be so sad, imagine sarah having to bury her second child at the age of 20/21, surely she has been through enough
Of course it would be sad, but it would be shocking aswell as sad. its about time Corrie started taking a few risks, where's the drama in her and Beth just living happily ever after?
Plus the kid that plays beth is awful. I though David was brilliantin the episodes surrounding the tablet. he is a better actor than the rest of the platt clan put together.
Loved the line where Darryl said to him you mental you are or something to that effect and his reply was no mate i'm a product of a broken home.
its easy enough to change the actress to play beth thats wot corrie are famous for in young actors arent they, i.e sarah, nick, david, rosie, etc
It was an average two episodes on Monday i thought - i was looking forward to the episode but i personally felt slightly let down by it all - i think Corrie could have done a lot better. I think i was expecting a lot more drama than there was. Sarah seemed to be the only person who really tore into David - i expected a lot more drama at the hospital - i thought Audrey, Gail etc were surprisingly calm considering the circumstances! The guy who plays David really acted out the scenes very well though, along with Tina O Brien.
Meanwhile, the Hayley/Roy/Becky scenes were brilliant as always - one of Corrie's strongest links at the moment.
I agree, I think that would be too sad. Corrie is miserable enough right now. More laughs is what I would like.Quote:

If gail had only oppened her eyes to him years ago and did something about it i.e boot camp for example it may never have came to this. But in gails opinion david was just going through a phase
Boot camp would have made him worse. He needs psychological help, and fast.
Last night's offering was better than Monday's. Can't get rid of Platty boy that easily. Gail will have to take him to the scaffold. Actually on second thoughts, maybe that's not a good idea.....
There was something very touching about that last scene with Gail and David in the street. The way she went to talk to him and he crossed the road and then she just carried on walking and looked at him at the end with a tear in her eye. I thought it was very touching and one of the best moments i've seen by Corrie for a while, i really felt for Gail then. More stuff like this please.
yeah i think it all hit home to her when she was listening to sarah and jason talking to bethany about her new room and telling her that david wont be coming back
Definitely. i think the way she's been acting these past few episodes isn't Gail at all. you can tell she's found it heartbreaking to throw him out but she can't see any other way forward.
i love the way you feel for both of them; you know david isn't a complete monster and obviously needs therapy or similar, and you can also sympathise with the siuation gail's found herself in. and there's even comedy in audrey's witterings and bill's aside comments. top stuff.
Decent enough tonight, enjoyed most of it
Good again last night apart from the Liam and Carla crap. sorry but i cant buy any of it, the whole thing seems to have just come out of nowhere.
I didn't like that either, or the Paul stuff much atm.
Thought Blanche and Becky were great though. :thumbsup:
