So Andy's done a runner? I think his character has been let down by the writers.
Would anyone - even someone as away with the fairies as Mary - contemplate moving thousands of miles away with someone she's just met without even visiting first? :searchme:
mary wants someone to stop her
andy should be honest and stop letting phelan control him
mary wants someone to stop her

Pretty much the same, utter drivel, the only good bit was Norris concern for Mary, which was played beautifully by Malcolm Hebden.
It was a very poor episode. I mean even Tracy was over the top nice. I dislike most of the storylines right now. I like Peter but not when it involves scenes with Leanne walking like she does or Nick getting over possessive. More daniel would be nice. Phelan gets on my nerves now and i do not like Andy's current state.
is johnny living in carla's flat in victoria court
One of my New Years resolutions is to bin Coronation Street. I am going to go Cold Turkey, I wonder how long I will Last????? :D
At the moment it seems to be emulating EE in having as many villains as possible not being brought to justice!
P.S. Except that dastardly villain, Maria of course.
I used to watch EE and other soaps but for years now just Corrie. But i find myself forwarding parts on iplayer it feels like another soap. One thing was bad guys got what was due to them but not now. So very disappointing to see them getting away with things and the nice guys suffering. Hardly entertaining.
Further to my astonishment that Mary would move abroad with a virtual stranger without even visiting first to get to know him and his lifestyle, I'm now even more shocked that someone would uproot their whole lives, say their goodbyes, pay for the journey and then not even step foot on the plane! Even if she'd decided against a permanent move for the time being, surely she'd have gone for a holiday to spend some precious time with the son for whom she's yearned for 32 years and his pregnant wife? :searchme:
(I'm not actually surprised at all at Mary's actions since we all knew she wouldn't leave, but I am shocked at the incompetence of the writing... :wall:)
does carla still own factory shares?
Not sure ......
Its too complicated for me, Mike was the one that squeezed out Adam not a Connor and Peters only investment was with Carla. but their marriage was too short for him to be able to claim anything off her plus he was sleeping around on the night of their wedding. But the factory was owned by that scotish murderer bloke before this lot of new got involved???
Andy is a mug, a true spineless drone. He is thoroughly implicated in the theft of a tow truck, Kevs not going to forget that on the day he lost his mobile and the theft was arranged trhe tool had his mobile.
Andy is just getting in deeper and deeper. He should have called Phelan's bluff right at the beginning.
What are the scriptwriters on and who dreamed up that story of Peter and Adam owning shares in the factory and being diddled out of them. Ridiculous. Has Peter or Adam got the money to fight this ?
I still think Aidan and Alya would work better as a couple than him with Eva or Maria
Episodes that yet again relied on a great many coincidences to drive the storylines (for example, Brian overhearing the meeting between Roy and the prospective buyer, Brian just happening to meet Cathy in the street straight afterwards, Adam overhearing the discussion about Johnny retiring, Eva being late for the prison visit).
There were a couple of lines that made me laugh solely due to the great acting: the way Roy scornful spat out "Councillor" to Sally during his rant in the pub, and the highly exaggerated way Phelan demanded of Andy "Are you thick?". :lol:
Peter did legally own half the factory in his own right at one point because Carla signed half over to him during their marriage. He gave his share back when the marriage broke down.
It's not like me to defend Corrie recently but Adam did say something to the effect that he had no intention of suing the Connors and that he was just trying to scare some money out of them.
Whatever happened to Adam being a solicitor? I wonder if he's been disbarred because he's obviously a crooked as they come?
brian and cathy I forsee a romance with roy's blessing
go johnny true what he said about jenny
what will eva do to maria when that truth out
brian and cathy I forsee a romance with roy's blessing
go johnny true what he said about jenny
what will eva do to maria when that truth out
That's what i thought. Why do they want to keep cathy on the street now. Does not make sense
I don't mind Cathy staying on the street as long as they have plans for her other than getting her back with Roy. I like them as friends: her kindness to him tonight reminded me why I thought Cathy was a good character at first (before she was turned bitter and annoying).
I'm amazed to say that I thought there was an improvement in Aidan tonight. He seemed more animated than usual (which isn't difficult to be fair :p).
How sleazy that Peter's got Simon covering for his liaisons with Toyah. That's going to end well...
Re Shane Ward, I rekon someones given him the heads up about, if he dosent remove the wood stick from his seating area he will be back on This Morning announcing the call in competition faster than he could say Eamon your the daddy.
Cathy aka Sharpes ex wife is annoying me, I know she was in debt when she met Roy but what hapend to the house she owned and how did Alex manage to afford a new flat?
Yeah Simon is being used again by his non caring pap to cover nookie with a lady he shouldnt be nookieing... It is nice to see Toyah back, I missed the actress when she left Casualty on the Beeb
I think I said a few times before :o but Aidan and Alya would make a good couple, they have loss of a parent in common and their scenes show chemistry
Johnny did right dumping Jenny, she is vindictive and destructive but Sally plays her so well
I am glad Johnny isn't retiring as Aidan cannot manage the factory on his own or fight the Barlows
The Cathy, Roy and Brian scenes were nice
I liked that Sylvia was mentioned and it would be great to have her back
There was a brief mention of tenants in Cathy's house a few weeks back to explain why she's living with Yasmeen. I thought that level of detail was quite impressive* for Corrie (who usually ignore the fine print).
Alex might possibly be living in some kind of supported social housing? :searchme:
* My expectations being set very low here you understand. :p
did alex and cathy also buy one of the scam flats from eileen and phelan
i also thought alex and cathy were invited to the pub when todd broke the news of vinny scam but i too could have remembered wrong
No following through with storylines. I mean michelle had a son plus one swapped at birth but no mention of them. Just focused on the new baby as if it is her one and only one.
Well i never saw that proposal coming. She will ruin it all somehow she cannot help herself. They are now making Gemma more over the top than before. They need to calm it down. Also this whole baby as soon as you wed thing is ridiculous
