Rosie is an absolute joke. Yes, bring her back and wouldn't it be refreshing and a surprise to us all if she was sophisticated , mature and sensible. All grown up. It happens . Not like she still is but worse - worse than ever .
Has she had work done to her face, her lips look very fuller and bigQuote:

So poor Daniel is a virgin and being mocked for it - boo hoo!!! He went into that factory determined to have sex with Sinead (although admittedly he didn't expect her to be so keen) and had already helped her to persuade herself not to give Chesney another go because he wanted to have sex with her himself. He was no innocent in what happened in the factory but he gets a pass because he's male (there was no such leniency for Maria when she slept with a cheating Aidan).
I'm so sick to the back teeth of slut shaming and misogyny. It's everywhere and getting worse and I don't want to read it here too. Using derogatory language to describe a cheating female soap character may seem harmless, but it's on the same spectrum as pussy grabbing presidents; victim blaming of rape victims (especially if they dared to have a previous sex life, were wearing a short skirt or had had a few drinks); and the growing problem of primary school girls getting slut shamed and sexually harassed in schools. It all comes from the same place and is damaging to all girls and women (yes, even comments on a soap forum about fictional characters can help make females reading internalise feelings of shame for daring to have a sex life and behave imperfectly in society's eyes).
I'm not going to comment on this anymore but I'm going to put anyone in the habit of slut shaming on ignore so that they don't spoil my pleasure in what is usually one of the more pleasant spaces on the internet.
Dazzle for president :cheer:

Absolutely spot on, Dazzle. The double standards that are applied hark back to a time when it was ok for a man to "sow his wild oats", but shameful for a woman, who had to remain faithful no matter what and, of course, a virgin until her wedding night. It is incredible that this attitude still survives. It should, of course, never have been the case but certainly should have been put to sleep once and for all in the sexual revolution of the 60s, but 50 years on, here we are.....:angry:
im afraid it still is a man's worldQuote:

i commend dazzle as she does speak the truth i admit i slut shame and is misogynist (must look up the meaning of) :o
Misogyny - dislike of women?
I was sad to see the end of Deirdre's kitchen. Just think of all those stuffed Marrow dinners she cooked. :(
slutty danny has a dark side
is shona a sister to kylie or connected to her killer?
sinead telling ches this is a good thing, she cheats on him so how is that a good thing, just break up before getting with another fella
where is beth and craig?

More scriptwriters with no practical experience of the subject they're writing about.
Does Kirk have Liam?
Sinead goes from one relationshp to another in the space of a few minutes :nono:
I liked Tim's description of Rosie
why can sinead not live back with her own family or nana
What do men see in Sinead? her voice would offend any northerner and make dogs howl. She is the northern version of Eliza Doolittle, except Professor Higgins couldn't turn this lass into a lady!
I did have to smile at Adam tonight when he dug up that biscuit barrel. :D
Well, speaking as a man I see absolutely nothing in her personally.Quote:

It was ludicrous at the time that Mary didn't go home with her son for a holiday since the plane ticket was already booked and paid for and the loose ends of her life in Weatherfield tied up. Now with the knowledge that she didn't appear on screen for many weeks afterwards it makes even less sense. :wall:Quote:

Her stories have been groundbreaking.
is kev going to say sorry to ty now
scotty adam and todd like those devious pair together

Why should he say sorry to Tyrone. Tyrone is the first to throw stones.
he accused him of calling cops for drugsQuote:

More great humour in the script on Thursday night.
If only the scriptwriters would stick to this and not try to write unbelievable plots, while paying no attention to the details required to give them credibility.
Mary telling Tracy about a couple she knew with a large age difference:
She suffered a massive heart attack while water-skiing on their honeymoon.
He met a travel rep nearer his own age, later that week.
They now have beautiful twins and run a do-it-yourself centre in Nantwich.
"Later that week" was great, but just why does the idea of a DIY centre in Nantwich make me laugh so much when the line is delivered by Mary?
I also loved Todd calling Rosie "Pamela Escobar". :lol:Quote:

I agree nobody in their right mind would have done that and Rana being a professional in the NHS as well. I know you need poetic licence, but that doesn't ring true.Quote:

they all live near each other would know her age so being drunk with an older man wasn't goodQuote:

They were, so it's a shame those lovely scenes were spoilt by being used as a plot device in the same episode as the birth of Leanne's baby in order to rub salt in Steve's wound. I thought that was a bit cheap.Quote:

Its simple just tell ya ex man Rossie in prison who stole the drugs off you, no police will be involved and a large man with a car iron will get the money off Adam in no time. Adam can go squealing to the Police all he wants it wouldnt get him anywhere apart from a charge of dealing.
been better if steve didn't turn into a buffoon for comedy which it wasn'tQuote:
