Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

More comedy dialogue last night.

Norris (to Mary): Are you sure you didn't have twins?

Earlier on in the episode, there was a blast from the past when Gail mentioned Fred Elliot, the butcher.
I do remember him, he always sounded like Foghorn Leghorn to me: "I say, I say boy"...or rather, I think it was, "I said"?

When Norris asked Mary if she was sure she didn't have twins, I wondered if the writers were taking the p*ss out of Eastenders (where Kat, who had a baby at the same age and under similar circumstances as Mary, recently discovered she'd actually had twins)? :p

Is that serious? I don't follow Eastenders, hence my ignorance about it.
I genuinely thought it was the usual comedy line in Corro that keeps me entertained. It just doesn't take itself too seriously, which I love.

That's a good point. Phelan never turned around before Andy hit him, so it is intriguing. Or maybe he clocked Andy's nervousness and Phelan just tried it on in case it worked, which paid off.
Pity Andy didn't strike him three or four times and do a better job. Phelan's the Mick MacManus of Corro - everyone loves to hate him.

Yes, that did seriously happen in Eastenders a couple of years ago.

I was probably reading too much into Norris' line, but I wouldn't put it past the writers to be a bit cheeky. :D

I commented on another thread that it seemed odd to me that Phelan knew Andy was his attacker.

I did however wonder after I'd posted whether he saw him standing over him after he'd fallen to the floor, but I have a vague memory that Andy immediately ran away?

Phelan seemed aware that somebody was there but I did not get the impression he saw anyone otherwise he would not have continued to lock the gate but would have said something to whoever was there, especially if he recognised Andy, surely???
