Boring episode tonight.
Fiz, Kirk, Rosie, Craig.. Zzzzzzz... :thumbsdow
:)
Rosie and Craig are doing my head in at the minute. Loved Blanche last night she cracked me up going on about Bev being an alcoholic, Ashley was so right when he was saying that Audrey was being selfish she really is. Glad Ashley and Claire are kind of back to normal. It was a good episode last night actually.
I agree it was a good episode last night. Much better than Friday's. I'm still not sure about Claire.. hmm something's still not right. :hmm:
Well anyway tonight's the night, I say I say. :p
I can't believe Fred has gone :( aww. I liked tonights episodes. Humour in the first one. Yet sadness in the second. :( And well balanced too.
Really enjoyed the first episode, not the second. Just like with Mike Baldwin, Corrie do a great build-up but fail at the final hurdle. Very disappointing.
Great acting by John Savident, Sue Nicholls and Stephen Arnold tonight, and from Susie Blake, although the latter got a dodgy script in the second half of tonight's events. Blanche and Norris also on top form.
What was that nonsense about with Dev and the phone though. There's a character who needs to go in a box asap. Where did the Duckworths and Betty come from anyway? They weren't in the first eppy.
Very disappointed in Fred's death scenes. Someone of his stature deserved a proper exit with him collapsing ON-SCREEN. I hope the bosses don't sleep well tonight.
I'm more looking forward to the funeral and the wake myself, which should be better, especially as it's another chance for Rita/Barbara Knox to sing. :)
Excellent first episode, disappointing second episode.
Fred Elliott - 1994-2006
Fred wasn't well balanced though, falling on Audrey's vase. :oQuote:

It must have been a whopping great big vase though! Sounded like a pane of glass smashing, not a vase!
A pretty dire exit (just like Mike Baldwins). Is it to get them back for wanting to leave or something?! :searchme:
Edit: And why on earth has no one thought to phone Ashley yet?! Surely Audrey would have phoned him or something!!! I'm sorry, but very very dire! I'm sure I am supposed to be feeling emotion here, but the only emotion I want to vent is laughter!
It was all a bit sudden wasn't it?! You blinked and it was over. Here one second gone the next. I'd have much rather he died in the church to see everyone's reactions. Would have made it a bit more exciting I think.
The highlight of the episode for me was Norris & Blanche in the church! :lol:
Audrey went in the police car to tell Ashley in person. I suppose she thought that would be best.
It was creepy the way Fred still had his eyes open when he died. I know that's realistic but it was quite chilling.
Some of those moments in the church were so funny. Blanche and Norris, oh my god! lol. I love that everybody needs to know everyone else's business. It's typical of life.
So long Fred i was a bit disappointed at the death. Poor Bev and Ashley i felt sorry for them. Why did he go to see Audrey if he was choosing Bev?
Yes, but, you know hes dead - you phone an ambulance and then his next of kin - I would have phoned for ambulance and then tried to find a way of trying to contact Ashley. Audrey didn't seem to even think of it until the police officer was talking to her, which in reality terms, would have been probably 10-15 mins after he died.Quote:

i laughed to, its horrible but it was so funny to die like that. Ashley was really good. but like Ritchie said, Blanche and Norris the highlight. Also the whole church when they were trying to find out what was going on.
your not the only one to laugh, I havent laughed at a death scene since Dirty Den died in EE. It was just so funny to hear him make a murmur than the vase smash. Then when Freds lying there dead as a doodoo Audrey's 'Say something Fred' cracked me up even more.I was very disappointed though the first episode was great, Corrie on top form than bang it just fell flat, for a character like Fred to go out like that was a huge disappointment.Quote:

Wasn't really any need to have Charlie in that episode either, I think he only appeared in about one scene didn't he?
Ashley starting to get annoying. About time everyone layed off Audrey I think.
Blanche on top form as always. :D
Good stuff with Frankie/Jamie/Danny too. The Websters were OK.
:)
Good to see Bill Webster back. :cheer:
Maybe Maureen will pop-up soon. Maybe buddy Maud will be flying round the Eiffel Tower in her wheelchair too. :p
I disagree about Cilla and Les. I think they're great and bring some welcome light relief to the Street.Quote:

If you think Audrey was responsible for Fred's death you're not likely to lay off her are you?
I agree about Blanche and the Baldwins...
Sally and kevin were great in Paris, Love Sophie too, but Rosie, what terrible acting, she was trying to cry but no tears while the guy that played Craig was brill.
THought Sophie was great tongiht. Shes the better out of the two daughters yet Rosie gets the storys.
Loved the line she had about " if that was me id be grounded till at least 35"
Also thought the scenes in the Pub with Bev were funny. "i need another gin"
She is being really pathetic though. The sooner the funeral is over the better.
Well Bev made a right show of herself last night didn't she. I heard she does the same at the funeral aswell. I thought she was leaving anyway?? :searchme:
I heard that, and I remember that there where loads of people in the sun or the news of the world that had headlines of Massive Clearout at CorrieQuote:

Bev is leaving, but not for a few weeks. I think her exit coincides with that I've read in spoilers for the next few weeks.
Eileen was never for the axe, thank goodness.
Quite good episodes tonight. I feel really sorry for Audrey. Everyone is being really awful to her, she didn't do anything, not her fault Fred had a heart attack. Can't believe her so called 'friends' even more, as they're meant to stick by her, good old Ken sitting by her though :cool:
Bev is really bugging me. She hardley knew Fred, and yet she's shoving her two pennies worth in there :angry:
Really liking the Frankie/Jamie storyline. I really think Frankie does like Jamie, I mean who kisses someone that long, that passionately, after them declaring their love for you, if you don't! I hope at some point they actually do get together, even if it is wrong :D
Fiz on the bike was funny I thought, the episode neded some humour, and that gave it :D Also Cillas comment about Rita's singing :rotfl:
Anyway, that's enough from me. :p
Completely loved it tonight, Fiz on the bike was so :rotfl:Quote:

I really didn't think Rita was that kind of person. I thought her of most people would have supported Audrey, but no, she's one of the worse ones!Quote:

Completely Right ! When Cilla tried to get Rita done over for hitting chesney, Audrey stod by her. Emily surprised me the most. But then the old ducks on the street are like sheep ! All follow each other aboutQuote:

I don't think I was surprised by Emily, mainly because of the 'sheep' reason you gave. Cause Blanche and Deirdre were being sheep too. It's pathetic, acting how others were.Quote:

Least old Ken sat in the same row at the church which was good.Quote:

Reet the hypocrite. She's a fine one to talk, she who was sniffing around Alf.
Good to hear her sing again though. :angel:
Yeah good old Ken. Oh Eileen's skirt, Blanches line about her going to a disco was priceless. I liked tonights but I cant wait till that stupid woman Bev goes.Quote:

I have been enjoying more Corrie lately, I just love Eileen and everyone who lives with her! Baldwins are great and Websters! Kevin & Sally really hold the soap together, with that completely normal family look
I think the Webster have for some time been the best soap family altogether.
It's amazing how they have turned Sally around, when she looked like someone without a future on the show. Now she is one of the best things in it. She's come a long way since being drenched by a passing van driven by Kevin in wet conditions.
aww i missed corrie last nite can someone tell me what happened please
They all decided to stay indoors and watch the Brazilian Grand Prix as did the cast of Emmerdale:DQuote:

And there was me also thinking i'd missed both soaps. :) Woohoo! :cheer:
Be warned though. Corrie on for an hour at 7pm tonight, followed by the normal 8:30 episode.
Bit too much. So what about Emmerdale??
Hour long episode tomorrow. Not on tonight.
Oh right.. so another clash then.
Lmao Jamie's face when she slapped him :D
