The Anna and Phelan scenes are well played and his insults are very witty but I can't laugh because they're so cruel. :angry:
After my comments on another thread, Roy didn't appear to be showing any signs of regret in Wednesday's episode. :o On the contrary, he seemed very satisfied at the thought of being just good friends with Cathy - until, that is, Alex left him in no doubt that she's heartbroken. Is Roy thinking of selling up for a chance at a fresh start (which seems unlikely for someone like him who abhors change) or is he running away from Cathy (which also seems unlikely since she only lives on Coronation Street because of him)?
Speaking of Alex: I thought he was great in tonight's episode so I hope he isn't leaving.
When Tracy kissed Luke, afterwards in some banter, Kev said to Luke: You and blood trucker Barlow?
What's the "blood trucker" reference about? Is it something in Tracy's past, or does it have some urban dictionary meaning I'm not aware of?
was it blood sucking barlow as in vampire sucks life outQuote:

I'm having some trouble with the Mary and her long lost son storyline. She's said several times that was 14 when her mother abandoned the baby 32 years ago, which coincidentally makes her almost exactly the same age as myself*. I was also a teenaged single mother; admittedly I was in my late teens, but another young female member of my family also got pregnant around the same time at 15 years of age. Therefore, I'm very aware of the attitudes of the time to teenagers having babies.
I realise Mary's mum is supposed to be a dragon, but then my relative's father was also a very unpleasant tyrant. Our family were obviously shocked at both of our pregnancies, but it wasn't exactly unheard of at the time (the end of the 80s) and we just got on with it. In fact, this was the time when unmarried teenage mothers appeared to be more common than we'd ever been - Thatcher's government even used to rail against us as a scourge on society! :p
So what I'm saying is this story doesn't really work for someone of mine and Mary's age no matter how monstrous her mother was and the circumstances of conception. I realise there are all kinds of excuses one can find for why Mary's mother couldn't stand the shame (religion for instance), but it still doesn't ring true that Mary would be forced to have the baby at home and it be left on the doorstep of a hospital like something out of the dark ages.
* I'm sure she used to be a few years younger then me... :searchme:
I enjoyed the Neasa, Yasmeen and Cathy scenes in the house
If ever an actress fits like a glove on the Street its Melanie Hill. I hope she stays on the cobbles for many a year.Quote:

I had to laugh out aloud when during the closing credits on Thursday, I heard the continuity announcer telling us all that, "The official Coronation Street colouring book is available now."
I bet given to someone as sick as Amy is turning out to be, no doubt a nice shade of blood red would be chosen for Phelan's head after Andy's excellent strike (although hit nowhere near hard enough).
When Andy turned up and asked Luke "what was all that about" with Kevin and Phelan, Luke said he didn't know, he just heard it was something to do with Michael. I don't remember Michael being mentioned, it was all about Phelan threatening Anna. Wasn't it?
Or was it just a nifty plot device to get Andy fired up even more.....
Sorry, forgot to pass Go Advanced and collect my £200....
When Kevin was having a go at Phelan in the builder´s yard ... why did Luke suddenly appear and get Kevin out? Is the builder´s yard so close to the garage that Luke was overhearing their argument??? :searchme:
I know that Steph and Andy live in the flat above the builder's yard. Doesn't Luke live with them now?Quote:

I think the recent Thursday episodes have just been catching up on those missed due to I'm a Celebrity. There's not one next Thursday.Quote:

Not for a while now I don't think. Alya had been living with them (but has now moved in with Kate), and now Freddy's started lodging with them permanently because he was lonely living by himself.Quote:

Jude, I knew Id seen him before, he was a nurse in BBC1s Doctors.
More comedy dialogue last night.
Norris (to Mary): Are you sure you didn't have twins?
Earlier on in the episode, there was a blast from the past when Gail mentioned Fred Elliot, the butcher.
I do remember him, he always sounded like Foghorn Leghorn to me: "I say, I say boy"...or rather, I think it was, "I said"?
When Norris asked Mary if she was sure she didn't have twins, I wondered if the writers were taking the p*ss out of Eastenders (where Kat, who had a baby at the same age and under similar circumstances as Mary, recently discovered she'd actually had twins)? :p
Is that serious? I don't follow Eastenders, hence my ignorance about it.Quote:

That's a good point. Phelan never turned around before Andy hit him, so it is intriguing. Or maybe he clocked Andy's nervousness and Phelan just tried it on in case it worked, which paid off.Quote:

Yes, that did seriously happen in Eastenders a couple of years ago.Quote:

I commented on another thread that it seemed odd to me that Phelan knew Andy was his attacker.Quote:

Phelan seemed aware that somebody was there but I did not get the impression he saw anyone otherwise he would not have continued to lock the gate but would have said something to whoever was there, especially if he recognised Andy, surely???Quote:
