Sorry, I got that wrong - of course it was Leanne.
Norris polishing his helmet and Ken liking to slip a few lengths in before dinner, ooh Matron, what else is going on in that retirement home.
Better not divulge in case it is before watershed time and upsets innocent folk .. :eek:Quote:

Surely there is a manager on the premises in charge of the everyday running of the complex and enforcing the rules and regulations. Charles, as chair of the residents association would be the go between between the residents and the management. Apart from advising residents on their rights and behavior he would have little or no power to enforce anything. He certainly would not be hiring outside cleaners or allocating duties to the staff working there. He may organize or help organize activities, but surely financial matters involved in those activities would be handled by the management. - Again in pursuit of drama practical details are ignored.Quote:

Has the community centre re-opened now that Underworld has moved back to the factory?
Does Geoff let Yasmeen still run it, she has the keys, where does she get the time.
Charles does as he pleases. Meanwhile, the Gemma saga rumbles onQuote:

Liz fancies? He barely got his foot in the door and she was onto him like a limpet.
Who is this new Aadi and what happened to the original one?
He had a head transplant. He went to the Weatherfield Medical Centre one day, got seen straight away and was given a new head. Happens all the time in Weatherfield.Quote:

The problem with CS is, they struggle badly when it comes to teens and young actors scenes and cannot do this convincingly. Also there was too much Steve and Tracey in the episode which is not good. Roll on July when they run out of material. I almost want more Gemma. Almost? I can't say I am misisng the lack of episodes.
The party did not seem very loud, so I am not sure why Aggie was so annoyed especially as it is not so long ago that she had a party and I do not remember anyone complaining or calling the police.Quote:

Personally I don't mind such characters. Far better than the likes of Tracy Barlow and David Platt.Quote:

Also, a rating of 3.5, which is she what she said she was aiming for, is a pretty poor standard to be your ambition.Quote:

He was always a bit of an intellectual snob but now they have made him more arrogant and less likeable than ever. Will we ever see Charles again or will he just disappear into the woodwork? Is Ken moving back to The Street, wonder if he will move in with Tracey.
And Aadi, I wish when they recast a character they would direct them the same way as they did the original character, this Aadi acts nothing like the old one. Makes me wonder if they got rid, because he was boring, and bought in a more dynamic replacement.
That whole storyline was/is completely ridiculous. Charles was chair of the Residents' Association not the home itself. It wouldn't have been his responsibility to dole out fines for bringing pets in nor for arranging the cleaning as just two examples.What were the management doing through Charles's reign of terror!? Also, the type of person that could afford to live in that home must have some sort of professional background you would think, so surely they wouldn't have just accepted Charles's word for everything. They would have wanted to see the annual accounts to know where their money was going. And as for Ken just nominating his successor without another proper vote, that was just plain stupid as well.Quote:

Jenny showed so much promise to begin with as landlady, but they have turned her into an imbecile something Tracy and David are not. Not that I am a fan of any of those characters. They have done a Gail on Jenny sadly.Quote:

It still staggers me how Ken can afford Stillwaters. Do people really not have any idea how much these places cost? Norris also. He could never afford it.Quote:

With Gail it was understandable, she wasn't too bad before disappearing to Thailand, and then she came back wearing the "Magic" fisherman's trousers, which seemed to change her personality.Quote:
