It's a case of "spur of the moments" so how does he manage to find a "burial place"?

ARe we now getting the next villain in line courtesy of Damon?

Some "bad uns" have been very bad, loved Pat Phelan and Kirsty, she played a blinder (only one woman villianess?) Richard Hillman was scary, but Alan Bradley? can't say he scared me.
But I think the one who had the most impact on me was Charlie Stubbs, he was a brilliant Gas Lighter, long before there was a name for his behaviour, think I weighed every chap up I met after that story!!

I have been thinking on those lines too... would have thought that at least one of the bodies would have surfaced by now ... sick of this storyline..:angry:

Isn't one in landfill and the other at the bottom of the canal?

Yes, but I had hoped that Leo would be found after Alya's van blew up and the police would investigate what happened ... and normally, bodies dumped in water have the habit of floating to the surface at the least opportunity for the killer..... maybe talking better quality crime storylines here, sorry

In a shiny car top box, in a canal that was probably not that deep and should have been visibile from the tow path.

In certain weather conditions the water in the canal becomes really really clear.

Just when you think that Sarah cannot get any more stupid.

I am very surprised to see that Roy allows dogs into his cafe.

I like Glenda but she is annoying me. She needs to stop pestering The Scrounger to sing at her wedding. She's not worth the trouble.

Dogs are being allowed into lots of places that you would never have imagined at one time!

Why did they have to kill Cerberus off, he was a better actor than others I could mention.
Hope Stephen eventually gets killed off to ensure his non return.

Perhaps he was getting too old to continue working. Same thing happened with Alfie, Zac's dog in Emmerdale. Would not be surprized if Evelyn got a new puppy or adopted a stray in the near future.

Wish I lived in Sarah's world where you ask a bad person to do the decent thing and they do so? - Of course we all know Nick's troubles are not over yet.

Paul has obviously not heard the fable about "Not counting your chickens before they hatch".

How is it that a solicitor with no clients has so much paper work to do?

Tonight's Corrie was saved for me by the superb Maureen Lipman. Hardly a dry eye in the house. Even Cerberus was ten times better playing the part of a dying dog than Steeeeeeeeephen was at playing any part. Maureen will be sadly missed. Her mixture of Comedy and Pathos is brilliant.

Tonight's Corrie was once again saved for me by the fast forward button, though I do agree about Maureen Lipman and Cerberus's acting skills as well.

What have I missed? Is Maureen leaving?
I really hope not, she plays the part so well with her sarcastic comments, always has me laughing.

Thanks for the info. I'm so pleased Maureen's not gone for good - unlike her friendship with Roy apparently.

Maureen likes to take part in short plays from time to time, I expect we will see her depart for short periods while she is a Corrie cast member. I am sure her friendship with Roy is also not gone for good and they will re-start their relationship.

As long as she doesn't 'lead' him 'a-stray' (sorry!)

Maureen Lipman was excellent, Evelyn broke my heart, but I am done with the Stephen stuff. Enough already.

Yes, very sad scenes for anyone who has had to have a pet put to sleep.

Bit more normal

At last something many of us could relate to, instead of far fetched story of baby selling, and people being bumped off.
Less of the ridiculous and more of normality please Corri🤷*♀️

Yes. Happened to us twice. It's an issue for the vast majority of pet owners.

I would always trust a vet who advised putting the animal to sleep rather than one who advised you to pay for expensive treatment on the chance it might work.

Will the Americans tell Sarah that they didn't pull out the the deal? Of course not !!!

Roy had said that he was playing chess and the rules were that you only had one minute to make your move. I don't see how he could work at the same time.

If he is not busy cooking, no problem but might knock an Eccles cake off a plate being distracted .... but should not have allowed dogs into the cafe really, not seen a place where this is allowed for many years but I am prepared to be corrected on that.

Hence the phrase, "You can't have your Eccles Cake and eat it."

A long episode of Corrie tonight with no fast forwarding!

As Paul's solicitor, why hasn't Dee Dee advised him to apply for ESA, PIP and other disability and out-of-work benefits instead of talking about charities that could help?

Also, good to see the Weatherfield Health Service still outperforming the UK's NHS. GP one day, appointment with the specialist the next.

Will Dee Dee be sending him her bill or is she on No win, no fee ?

Roy needs to stop grovelling to Evelyn.

I don't think I have ever seen benefits being discussed in any soap apart from going to get dole money.

Maybe I'm mistaken but didn't Dee Dee come from a successful law firm in America - probably hasn't heard of benefits - How can she practice law here?

Weatherfield NHS is even quicker than BUPA and no waiting to see a GP. If it wasn't for all the murderers and drug dealers it would be the perfect place to live https://www.soapboards.co.uk/forums/...milies/lol.gif
