no one can hug comfort leanne and steve, even their partners
I love Sam.
Would the ambulance crew really give out detailed info on how far away from Yasmeen Geoff was on the floor ?? And Yasmeen would have moved from where she was by the time the police arrived?
She should not have been confused about him being trustworthy.Quote:

The prosecutor seems to be putting more energy into defending Geoff than prosecuting Yasmeen.
The passcard that Geoff used was in the name of Pauline Durant, who was the person that phoned him while he was using it. So even if they could not recognize Geoff from the CCTV footage they would see it was not Pauline using it.Quote:

I can't help feeling that if Yasmeen is convicted, there are immediate grounds for appeal in the judge not allowing the CCTV footage to be brought into evidence.
What did Debbie take out of that white car? Is it her car?
The judge said he did not object to the CCTV footage being obtained but he was not going adjourn the court case for it ... so Imran has to act quickly to get it from the hospital and I am sure he will manage it. They really need it to prove that Elaine told the truth about Geoff seeing her in her hospital roomQuote:

I think because it was obtained illegally, (Alya stole the laptop), it could not be submitted as evidence no matter how true it was.Quote:

In that case I wonder what reason he gave her for needing it. ??? - Did not really make sense to me.Quote:

Would there be a power supply for the TV in the garden, it would be handy for people to charge there phones or even for those with electric cars for free.
That prosecutor, even taking into account she's doing her job is a smarmy slimey bitch. I've never believed in this crap about yes or no sole answers.
Also Imran would normally have re-questioned Yasmeen on most points really rather than just letting the prosecutor's story of possible events stand .. why was she wearing a wig but Imran did not??? :hmm:Quote:

I am just guessing about this but she is probably a barrister and Imran is not, he is a solicitor. I think only barristers where wigs.Quote:

It's a bit rich though to badger witnesses with tactics like "Are you a mind reader" when she's doing exactly the same thing and even worse, getting away with it.Quote:

It is highly unusual, but a solicitor can represent a client in court. There is no reason in law why they cannot.Quote:

This what barristers do, they put you under pressure in an attempt to get you to contradict yourself or catch you out on a lie to discredit you with the jury. The police do the same thing in interview, in the first interview, they encourage you to talk to gather information, then in the second interview they try to get you to contradict what you have already said. A barrister can put forward an alternative story, again to suggest the defence the accused is using is untrue. The defence barrister can object and it is for the judge to decide what is permitted and what is not. I am not sure that the way this trial is being shown would compare to a real trial, I think we must assume a certain amount of "poetic licence" is being used.Quote:

Perhaps she had previously put a listening device there and was retrieving it. Suppose all will be made clear and we will have to wait and see what it was.Quote:

Clever! - I would never have guessed that.Quote:

I hope Elaine (Paula Wilcox) is around for a bit longer now she has a son and granddaughter on the street.
Corrie needs some decent actors.
I know in the great scheme of things this is not very important but, as someone steeped in the tradition of Gilbert & Sullivan since the age of 4, I wish to take issue with Brian saying that he was due to play The Mikado as his days of playing Nanki Poo are long behind him.
The Mikado is a bass part; Nanki Poo is a tenor part. Your voice doesn't get deeper as you get older! Otherwise singers like Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras would have been recording as The Three Basses!
good old danny barlow high on morals after he too sampled carla and was trying bethany while sinead dying
I agree to some point but Carla and he were free agents at the time, I think and he got Bethany confused with Sinead due to being upset and grievingQuote:

Is it suppose to be Newton and Ridley?Quote:
