And as if they couldn't tell the difference at a glance between shards of a newish vase and ancient pottery. :wall:Quote:

On what grounds did they arrest Caz?
The burden of proof would be on the police proving she faked her own death, but she hasnt gained from doing that monetarily and the discussion with her ex in the flat would be her version versus her ex lovers account. She would be bailed the same day and probably only get some community work, more likely just a caution for the credit card use.
Now either way there wont be a restraining order issued so Caz could be straight back in the street but its ok because they could call shouty lady officer for help.
If I had been Aidan and had seen Caz walk into the factory, I would have called the police there and then so they could come and get her. :wall:
Exactly, Dazzle. First of all they would need a report and have a look at any finds already made. After studying that and doing some historical research on the area in question to see if there is any record of a pottery there or nearby for example (which, of course, in this case, would have meant them saying the pieces were modern and of no interest and that would have been the end of it), but, assuming they were genuine, as this was not an emergency, they would find a date in the calendar to come down and survey the land. Maybe do some geophys, though maybe not, then probably dig a small exploration trench to see what was there and if it was worth carrying on. If it was, a date would then be set to carry out a proper excavation. It would probably take weeks before they actually got on site, though, of course, in this case just a cursory glance at the objects would have meant they wouldn't bother with any of that.Quote:

I'm just too easily pleased.

Mary and Erica's warm friendship is a shining beacon in Corrie at the moment. I like having Brian back too.
The Peter and Daniel scenes were very good. The only part of this story line niggling me is how they have demonised Denise for the sake of a story line and gone against the character. There is no way Denise would have done this to Daniel. When Soaps do this to characters it really annoys me. It was nice to see a different side to Mary.
My favourite lines from Monday night:
Tracy talking to Adam: "Maria, the Venus de Milo. Pretty, but not all there."
Sinead talking to Sally about a friend's mother: "...she ended up having three fingers amputated. In the end it weren't all bad. She couldn't hold a fag anymore, so it helped her give up smoking."
What do you mean ? Like she has pooped in her pants?Quote:

After she has done that ..Shane Ward comes across as someone who needs to be back on This Morning selling their competitions call ins again and not pretending he can act in this show. I mean the man is so wooden if he where a ship there would be a death watch beetle alert on him. Aiden should have some kind of sowing a seem death scene with Fizz accidentally making him a part of a bra on Aylias new death machine. :cartman:
I couldn't agree with you more about Shayne Ward. I really dislike his character and he has all the personality and charisma of a pancake. He'd be first for the chop if I was in charge. :moonie:Quote:

I agree about Mary and Norris. The best thing on Corrie for ages.Quote:

Just thought Peter could have gone to the police station after the counselling session. Daniel has waited 6 years so one day would not have made too much difference, i hate it when Peter lets Simon down all the time. No wonder her needs long term counselling!

Yes, I thought it sounded so silly when he said Daniel's mother went missing six years ago so he had to go to the police station that morning! And Leanne just accepted it.Quote:

There seems to be a very high proportion of women in soap at the moment that have had secret children at 13/14! :eek:
Yes I agree the scenario could have been better, but the actual scene between Mary and Norris was first class.Quote:

Aidan has had a personality transplant to suit the scriptwriters.Quote:

I don't know that he has had a personality transplant. He's messed Eva around from the start, and lied and prevaricated for months about wanting to move in with her.Quote:

That's because he is a coward because he doesn't really love her. He likes the fact that she is arm candy. Other than that he has always been a nice guy until now. Lots of men don't want commitment.Quote:
