I feel that Sue Cleaver (Eileen) was not really into kissing Michael and wanting to go further even - who can blame her ... the scriptwriters are bonkers!!!:angry:
Leanne is too hard on Simon - he's ONLY 11 anyway and just think how much that boy has got through.. And throwing that remote was an accident, it wasn't aimed at Leanne. More huggs and talking needed.. In real life, time with dad in Portsmouth might have been a good idea.
I don't think Simon got angry over Kal as he made a comment of him not being his dad in front of Zeedan to Leanne so why was he angry at Leanne, possibly jealous of her grieving for Kal and bounding with Zeedan, his aggressive side against Leanne just came out of nowhere
I enjoyed drunk Michael too, his outburst in the bistro telling all the truth was particularly funny
I think Simon is trying to push Leanne away because he fears that he loses her eventually as well..I mean, he's lost his mom, and his dad has moved away..He got so close with Tina, then Tina got killed...Carla was his stepmom for a while-not anymore, and then all these new 'daddies' around..Nick was there for a while, and now Kal died..And next he's going to lose grandma Deirdre..Would make anyone confused, sad and angry, so how about 11 yr old boy?! Anyone thinking therapy? Ken-the only one in that family with brain?
Probably when Deidre's death is officially announced that will push Simon completely over the edge, especially as his dad returns for the funeral and then disappears of the 'Portsmouth' again
I think Simon is also angry at Leanne because she keeps bringing these people into his life who then die..and maybe he's blaming Leanne for leaving his dad too..so many traumatic events in just 11 years..
No one is thinking of Simon..maybe he should live with his dad-or with Ken at the moment. Thats what would happen in real life, but because of all drama..he has to stay with his mom.
I would like to have seen Carla keep in contact with Simon
Nick and him were close too but not now
We never saw much closeness or interaction between Kal and Simon
I think Simon domestically abusing Leanne is a good storyline because it's something that seems to be happening more and more in real life. I agree the build up was too quick though.
He did throw the remote at Leanne but it was done without forethought and he was obviously astonished and perturbed that it hit her. At least his reactions shows he's not bad, just disturbed - and little wonder! :(
Leanne's bruise was a bit over the top and must be a medical miracle given the speed at which it developed. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...ppy-514478.gif
Ken obviously suspected something was amiss.
Good Michael/Eileen/Gail/Andy scenes. I especially enjoyed Eileen's horror when she thought Gail heard the conversation with the doctor about Michael being on top of her when he collapsed. http://www.easyfreesmileys.com/smile...mileys-842.gif
Nice touch that Luke and Maria got back together. I hope he gets more scenes now as I think he's rather good.
Nasty Tracey handing out wise advice must have been a first. At least we know Todd really loves his mummy still - aww bless! He seems to bitterly resent the close bond between her and Jason. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...sed-140297.gif
I was disappointed to see Todd back on the street..I thought he would have been gone for good! I hate to see him. And I don't care how good actor he probably is to make me hate him-he's too vile and as I've said before, there's just too much anger on the street at the moment. Everyone is angry or bad or mad..where's all the funny bits??!! I don't think Les Dennis was very good acting as drunk...I enjoy of Gail's misery though-never liked her..
luke is better away from maria, she brings his character down
Do we know anything about Todd's dad, his resentment for Jason started when Tony came in to the picture
so gemma didnt tell kylie anything of what callum was doing while she was with her and kylie looks better now from gemma's rehab :p
Yep ..
I dont remember Todds father being mentioned
-in the programme but perhaps missed it!
In the corrie net profiles it says Todd was born
when Jason nearly 2. Eileen found Jasons father
Tony in bed with another girl and told him to go.
She didnt realise she was pregnant with Jason.
When Tony found out about pregnancy -he offered
to marry Eileen but she refused.
All it says about Todds father is he was reliable
and planning familys future.Eileen told him
to go but later regretted it.
No name is given and both sons have Eileens
surname. Perhaps Todd resents Jason because
he knows who his father is and Todd doesnt!
Another story to be told sometime??

liz needs to slap tracy, mother of her grandkid shouldn't matter just slap her
Simon's reaction to seeing Leanne pack the suitcase was very telling. He's (very understandably) developed severe abandonment issues. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...-no-084887.gif
Really good to see Kylie back with her spark intact. I'm looking forward to seeing her and David go up against Callum.
I really like Liz and Erica's friendship.
Dev's being very cruel to poor deluded Julie. :(
My impression was that Kylie's only been at Gemma's very recently. She'd been in London for a while so she may have got clean down there. It does seem strange Gemma didn't tell Kylie about Callum going for custody but maybe she didn't like to tell tales about him. :searchme:
my impression is kylie and gemma have keep in contact a fair bit with kylie even staying with her but could be wrong
No I agree, I think that corrie have let fans of Maddie and Sophie down a little,, there has not been anyway near as much air time as the other guy/family got who died,,,,I myself would have thought that they would have used up the double episode instead it was all about michael discovering what we were not really bothered about anyway,, I feel robbed of the time that should have been given to Maddie and Sophie and the family xxxx not a happy chappie re this x
I think Jenny's storyline of taking Jack will overshadow Maddie's funeral
I really want to slap Sarah Louise :angry:
Is she and Bethany back living with David again?
Is this the lady Dev meet in India not what I was expecting :p
I liked the scenes of Jenny with Sophie and also Ben with Sophie
Where was Sean's boyfriend at the funeral? Shouldn't he be with him at a time like this as a good Christian?
Talking of funerals it was good to see an islamic one in the show. They did that really well. Just one fact that they had it about a week later which would not be the usual thing as they bury same day or the next day. Thats why I miss a lot of them as never can get to them at very short notice. Jenny was good it made me cry. Sarah and her offspring are at Audreys. They need to support themselves and stop living off relatives. There is only so much good will!
Coronation Street's boss has apologised for a script blunder where screenwriters seemed to forget a very significant storyline.
A plot involving the death of Kevin Webster's baby son 15 years ago was missed during a touching scene between members of the Webster family.
In the scenes, Kevin told daughter Sophie that it "must be hard burying one of your kids" following the death of her girlfriend Maddie Heath in a fire at Victoria Court.
However, in 2000, Kevin and his then-wife Alison's baby Jake was just days old when he passed away from an infection.
The aftermath of the heartbreaking storyline saw Kevin's distraught wife take her own life.
Corrie producer Stuart Blackburn has apologised for the mistake, telling The Sun: "I'd like to thank viewers who spotted our mistake.
"Our episodes go through many drafts and are scrutinised by many people, but on this occasion we did make a mistake."
Inexcusable mistake in my opinion :wall:
I agree Perdita -it is inexcusable!!
On "this" occasion -its one of many such.
And was referred to in this forum( and no doubt
elsewhere) well in advance of the time delay
between filming and transmission.So
could have been corrected.
If there was even a small attempt at
continuity instead of so much on
over-hyping there wouldnt be so many!!
On a different type of error- they boosted
Izzy as the first wheel- chair using character
on the soap.
But they had had Maud Grimes( Reg Holdsworths
mother in law in the soap for years!) who
was in a wheel chair!

Is it just me who thinks Sophie, Kevin and Rita jumped to the conclusion that Jenny'd taken Jack unnaturally quickly? The only evidence they had was some missing trains and pyjamas. Why didn't they at least check his bedroom before phoning the police? http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...sed-630530.gif
I find Jenny very tragic when her "nutty" behaviour's toned down. Her scenes with Sophie and Jack were very moving. :crying:
I hate the forced jollity often found at wakes. I understand it's a coping mechanism but I find it very uncomfortable to watch (and in real life).
Gail's face when David told her that he and Kylie were back together looked like she'd just chewed a wasp! :rotfl:
I'm really enjoying Kylie being back. Her and David's scenes were my favourite part of Friday's episodes.
I still can't get over Sarah's relationship with Callum. I understand his motives, but she looks thoroughly bored in every one of their scenes. Is the actress fed up or is she being directed to act like that I wonder? I can't remember a soap couple with less chemistry! :wall:
Agree they have no chemistry
