Yes but she looked doubtful again at the dinner with Steve and Tracey when he started with a lie again.
While Sally is very pompous and irritating, I can see how she would be ticked off at Maria constantly bringing up the prison angle as it was wrongful.
Regarding Curtis, is it me or does he have a very prominent chin, it looks like he has a huge growth there. :)
Did he really have a hole in his heart when he was young? His father doesn't appear to have mentioned it.Quote:

It does look odd, not sure if he has a bigger bunch of beard growing on the chin part or he is trying to cover a large chin with some beard .. if that is so, he should maybe grow a bigger beard all around, I think, to take away prominence from the chin ??
It is surely a long time since Steve had a 36" waist.
Is the ?4,000 pound that Curtis gave to Oliver's fund, money that Steve gave him to see private consultants?
I thought Emma was going to tell Steve the whole sorry tale when he started prattling on and would not let her get a word out.
Is it just me or is Simon Gregson's acting getting worse. Steve is becoming more and more of a caricature.
Will Emma's silence help Curtis to steal ?100K ???
Great thinking from thick Gary there - phoning Maria while still in Sally's house with Tim around.
amy talking sense but emma will not listen, so bored of her and curtis
I blame the writers for dumming-down his character.
I like Steve. I also like Simon. I have not seen them together thoughQuote:

What are the odds that there would be so many stupid people in such a small village/town/neighborhood? I'm not just talking about Zee & Curtis, there are so many more.
Certainly not. He's a jolly and friendly chap who knows where his bread is butteredQuote:

Does no one in Soaps have a sense of smell, that they never know anything is burning until they open the oven door.
1. If I was in the police investigating the "theft" of ?100,000 via bank transfer, I think I might contact the bank first and ask them what's happened to the money. Silly, I know. Just as well I am not in the police.
2. As SoC says, has anyone ever managed to cook anything in a soap EVER that hasn't finished up burnt?
PC Tinker is probably so busy investigating every crime in Weatherfield that he has no time to contact the bank. I am pretty sure it will turn out he was not stealing the money at all. It was pretty obvious he was booking Fuerteventura for the honeymoon, so no surprize there then. I am getting tired of this boring tale. Wish he was stealing the money and running off, so that we could see the back of him.Quote:

Talking of which, I can't understand why Faye got the blame for the near accident. Asha was looking at her phone and just stepped straight into the road in front of the car.Quote:

It opens them up to all sorts of allegations. It could put them in an awkward position. Over here it used to be the case that you were not allowed to live in the area you served in.Quote:

Surely you don't expect someone who lives in Weatherfield to work somewhere else. It's completely unheard of.Quote:

That ex fiancee of hers cannot really be trusted.
Why does that Max smirk even when he's supposed to being sincere ?
What is Daniel's evidence for think that Max is a good kid ?
Sadly that's the way its going all around the UKQuote:

I would tend to slightly excuse any kid who had been raised by David Platt,Quote:

I have mixed feeling about this. Abi would want to keep them and would be gutted to lose them again.Quote:
