I thought Sally standing for council would be funny, but it is jarring with me a bit. I am liking Erica now she has settled in and isn't just Liz's friend.
Evil Tracey Luv just does not cut it for me. Kate Ford is a poor man's Charlie Brooks and Emma Atkins.
Anna´s comment: Tim and Kevin wearing a t-shirt: Sally .. Been There, Done That :rotfl:
think tim needs to dump sally, god she has become so annoying not funny anymore
Sally always gets her comeuppance when she goes too far ... she won´t be elected or if she does, she won´t be able to stick it for long but she needs to stay with Tim, they make a great couple, much better than her and Kevin :D
Todd cant make a bouquet yet so why does tracy luv think she can leave him on his own
The only reason we have 'Preston Petals' is so itv can make a load of money out of product placements. It does not matter how hideous or stupid it actually is so long as the money rolls in. What next? Will Norris have a Staner stair lift fitted for when Emily gets back? or Old Mcdonald Liz McMutton having New Zealand Lamb on the Menu in Betty's Hotpot? May be Dev can have Pucka Pukka Pies at the Kebab place? :angry:
Simon is a really bad actor, I do wish they would not give him such prominent roles. He needs to go to acting school. In our house we want him to be sent down for 20 years lol
Comments on tonight's episodes:
1. Were the police going to take Simon away for questioning without a responsible adult? Ken turned up by chance; supposing he hadn't?
2. Why did Beth and Kirk go back to the Bistro?
3. Why was Nick so concerned about an Evironmental Health inspection?
4. Izzy seems to have suddenly become much worse. No sign of this acute pain before. Why doesn't she go back to her doctor and tell him/her that the pain is worse and see what they can do?
5. This Sally story is just complete nonsense and totally ridiculous.
On the plus side.....
6. Kylie was brilliant.
I could'nt understand why Kylie and David were treating Beth like that. She has suffereddue to their carelessness. If i were Beth i would have said wait to hear from my solicitor after their attitude.
I thought that when police were draggng off simon on his own. That is not proper procedure i am sure. She should have gone with them rather than act as if she was about to wave them off. I think they should try and create some reality by adhering to proper procedures never mind their daft storylines. I think they think we are brainless.....

As I commented a few pages back, I have experience of an angry nightmare of a teenager and Alex Bain's portrayal is very authentic. OK, he overacts sometimes, but as Leanne said: "He's just a kid".Quote:

Oh yes, I'd forgotten that. I don't think the doctor would refuse to help any more though. Do we know if she has been referred to the pain clinic at any time?Quote:

Police dragging Simon into the car???! Unbelievable!
He's only 12-and really not THAT bad..! Surely it would have been handled with child protection services, not physically like that??!
There should have been a conversation where they would have explained the situation to Simon and they could have taken him in for questioning themselves. Frightening enough for most 12 year olds, including Simon.
Really unrealistic scenes. Maybe in America, but not here..

Not that I can remember. I doubt the scriptwriters have thought that deeply about pain management.Quote:

I know Corrie is pile of pony right now, but there are lighter moments, little gems that make me smile. Well every scene with Jack P Shepherd. His face made me howl when he was talking about Beth and her hair do. Love, love, love David. :rotfl:
I'm a fan too. Jack always kills the one-liners and I enjoy the character of David whether he's in jester, loving father or psycho mode (and everything in between). One of the few actors on Corrie who can overcome bad writing.Quote:

Why does anybody actually speak to Tracey Luv????
carla should just tell nick instead of letting tracy rule her
Simons s/l makes no sense, the vid showed he didnt kick the guy?? but it must have been a dangerous tackle with verbalised intent and no remorse. Now the brat is acting the victim, well untill he attacks the next guy.
Still dont buy into Shanes acting, he needs to up his game

One of the eternal mysteries of Corrie. The writers treat her as if she's living in a parallel universe where people are allowed to get away with cruelty, bullying, sniping, blackmail, violence and even murder with nary a raised eyebrow.Quote:

And I think Carla would do just that given what we know of her. It's going to be completely out of character if she allows Tracy to hold such power over her.Quote:

Thats how he behaves himself most ofQuote:

I agree. I did mean to mention this in my list of comments on Friday's episode. I can't see how the video could show that Simon didn't intentionally hurt the other boy. How did he break his leg? It must have been in that tackle, so how could a video prove Simon didn't intend it? Shame we never saw the video ourselves!Quote:

I don't know why Leanne is acting so remorseful. What about all the times Simon attacked her? She told the police about those too. He certainly looked like he meant to hurt that boy, and even told Zeedan so.
She feels a failure as mother, probably thinks she is responsible too for having left Peter and therefore added to Simon´s tough life he has had so farQuote:

yes but Tracey also told the police and Robert she went there, Robert wasn't there to surprise and she left, leaving her phone behind, so has sort of started covering for herself already?Quote:

They have to soften her a bit as she's getting far too nasty again and there's nothing new there with this forever ongoing feud between Carla and Tracy..!! I hope if Tracy tells Nick, that Robert would leave tracy. I can imagine he would lose his job as well, and that wouldn't go down too well. Maybe Michelle tells robert how Tracy was blackmailing carla, and he puts her under control.
I hope Carla realises Robert's partnership with Nick will be in danger if the truth comes out. Tracy has as much to lose as Carla does.Quote:

Carla should have been honest with Nick from the start, he can't judge but he would, he slept with his brother's wife
