Loving Corrie still.
Steve is fantastic and yes he is another character with expression and personality.
My highlight of course was the:wub: :wub: Paul/Carla Connor who just get more adorable by the episode. Really love what someone called their "fiesty" marriage. Carla I am really warming too now and you can see that she has a softness in her when she is with Paul and he is being all loving with her and supportive.ahhhh...
Was great to see a lads get together and I liked the combination of Lloyd, Jamie, Sean and of course Steve. Lloyd when he first re-appeared, out of nowhere I didn't like him but have now changed my mind completely about him. I think it's the fact that he is paired with Steve and has been put with the "lads"
Steve is another one of my favourite Corrie characters who slots in nicely anywhere.
Also Dev now he is becoming central once again, I am warming to him.
Becky she is another character who I now like.
Vernon, no change, although I did enjoy the Jack/Vernon scene where Jack was giving Vernon a few tips on how to "make out" he was working hard:lol:
The Tracy stuff is becoming a bit dull and seems to have run out of steam, unlike Blanche/Norris and Rita:lol:
Same here, i mean I know that when she first came here she was horrible but now I think she is getting misunderstood, and is really trying hard to turn her life around.Quote:

I am hating Kelly more and more.
Dont get my started on Kelly every time she opens her mouth I cant stand her, she is just getting very annoying.
I thought tonights would be really stupid with the bomb and everything, but i actually thought it was quite good.
I'm sure I remember last September Josh starting proper school. He was in his uniform and Claire Ashley and Fred were all making a fuss. tonight when Ashley asked Claire where Josh was she said he was at playgroup. :searchme:
OMG! Was I having hysterics lst night at the :wub: :love: :heart: Paul
There was Roy wittering on about dropping bombs and Paul suddenly said
"Talking of dropping bombs, any idea where the lavs are?:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Can't wait until Sonny gets that smug look wiped from his face.
Absolutely loving Corrie at the moment.
Yes never liked him in The Bill either. At least Steve is a likable rogue.Quote:

For example the other night when Paul was saying that his wallet was his best feature and Carla turned to him and said your second best before kissing him passionately:wub:
Corrie is just so on top with the plots/storylines, comedy (absolutely hilarious at times)drama etc and fabulous writing as is its "twin" soap
Steve is an absolute gem and another character I adore, just loving him being so central. When he first appeared in the soap I couldn't stick him, funny how certain characters just grow on you more and more over time. Really enjoying Lloyd too surprisingly. Just hope he doesn't get it on again with "super gob, the bunny boiler"
Still LOATHE Vernon.
Corrie have matched their characters up well, most of which interact and fit in anywhere and with anyone.
You and 10.6 million other viewers:rotfl: Looks like nobody died in the bomb explosion last night.................Quote:

How disappointing. I thought Mr Grumps was Vermin at first glance...
Dont be silly Parkerman. Mr Grumps can act. Even when blown to bits by the Bomb Disposal he's much better than Vermin:rotfl:Quote:

Indeed, Steve is excellent. I remember when the McDonalds arrived in 1989 and for years I didn't like Steve or Liz, Steve in particular annoyed me with his mucking around with Alf Roberts. How they have got better with age, especially Steve.Quote:

Vermin annoying as ever. What a shame he wasn't in the line of fire.
I also agree about Sonny. He's dreadful, and I hate the storyline with Sean, absolutely zero chemistry between them.
Is that gnome the property of one Derek Wilton?
i htough ti was good last night,. but i to still loathe vermin, like the majority do. Paul conner was funny as well.
Well I dont really know Vera (To be said in the voice of Mavis)Quote:

I thought there was going to be an explosion and these characters whereabouts would remain a mystery for a couple of episodes (guess this was just my imagination going into overdrive again LOL) My only major disappointment about the episode is that Vernon is still alive.
Norris/Blanche have some serious competition on the comedy front in the form of Paul and Steve who have been absolutely hilarious recently. I loved the way during the bomb episode that Paul ws interacting with everyone on a commical level, fantastic.:D
Poor Michelle well at least she knows. Liam was hilarious last night and i'm really liking him and Leanne.
I know I felt really sorry for her, but it is best that she knows, and leanne and liam would be interestingQuote:

Getting beter and better by the episode :thumbsup:
Me too, naturally I am in Corrie "heaven" right now with the Connors becoming very central and look as though they are going to have most of the "Juicy" storylines.
I love the way Corrie are leading one big storyline into another with regards to the Connors as well as developing other "Big" storylines with other themes for them. We currently have the bisexual love triangle with the boyfriend and best friend betrayal which is leading up to another type of"Betryal" storyline which I think will lead to another.
I have enjoyed the Sean/Michelle/Sonny storyline as it is a different kind of love betrayal, just wish Paul had punched Sonny's lights out!
I did feel sorry for Sean as he is getting all the agro, but like the Connor Bros kept stressing to him the other night, it is about Sonny lying to sister Michelle who naturally they are protective of.
There were some lovely Connor scenes in Sunday's episode with Paul givng Sonny the "Big brother/Father" speech with a few warnings and I liked the Liam/Paul/Ryan brief chat.
Paul was on form as usual with his witty charm! (just have to say I:love: him in jeans) I'm loving the fact that we are now seeing the other side to Paul.
For me the Connors are just wonderful and the best addition to Corrie for quite sometime and are becoming more and more:wub: with every episode.
Steve - well what can I say? Wonderful, he's character is just shining and I did feel sorry for him when he tried to warn Michelle but she wouldn't believe him. I liked the LIam/Steve scene in the cab office Monday when Liam was going off at him and Steve told him to calm down, Liam sat down and Steve as casual as you like said "fancy a brew":lol: His character has really grown big time and become absolutely adorable over the years, love himbeing so central. Lloyd I'm very fond of now also and these two work well together.
Liam is growing on me more and more, although I have always loved his character and I think that he and a certain "lady" will be great together.
Norris/Rita/Blanche commical as ever. Doreen not too bad, her and Rita and funny together espec when they go off on their benders!
David/Tracy good but becoming a bit dull for me.
All in all Fantastic viewing with lots more on the way.
Very well done to Corrie and all involved.
They certainly do seem to be having the main storyline at the minute but as always with Corrie there are always one or two more on the back burner, Traceyluv and Devvil Boy, Clur and CaseyQuote:

That's what I like about Corrie, they are fair and make sure that everyone gets a look in and has a decent storyline. Like you quite rightly have said they run more than one big storyline at a time, there is something for everyone. Don't forgetPlusSpoiler:andSpoiler:Spoiler:

Of course Steve is excellent, and even Lloyd has improved since he returned. Not enjoying the Tracy/David stuff as it's a bit OTT for me, but David and the older Barlows are making it bearable. Finally, it is great to have Leanne back, a character who has been much missed.Quote:

I loved that scene, Norris went all gooey. Am I detecting roamnce brewing here? Obviously not the full on type, although it would be hysterical seeing Rita/Norris acting like a couple of teenagers, i.e secret little kisses and hugs etc.:lol: but a sweet "Old Fashioned" more along the line of companionship type.
I like the new Leanne so far and I agree she certainly livens things up and as far as I can tell there are some real fireworks coming up in connection with this lady!
That scene with Ryan 'sussing out' Sean and Sonny was ridiculous. Bad acting all round. :thumbsdow
The rest was actually alright. It was just that two minutes of madness that spoilt it. Hopefully this storyline will come to an end soon.
Next week looks better, with plenty of Dreary. :thumbsup:
I really enjoyed the Connor confrontation scene on Friday where Paul lashed out at Ryan and clipped him round the ear (marvellous acting from Sean the way he just lunged forward and clipped). I particularly loved the way that scene was showing us the youger brother keeping his older brother under control, espec as we were led to believe that Liam was the lose Cannon in the family where in actual fact it is Paul:wub: :love: :heart: . Liam was definitely taking control there. I was impressed with the way we saw that Paul will snap at Carla if the mood takes him, I liked that. Yes I love all the fireworks which are building in the Connor family afterall this is what makes the viewing interesting. A good mixture of lovely/Sweet and fighting etc.
Michelle has been wonderful of late also, Kim is brilliant. Liam is getting better and better as we are seeing more character development with him also. Hopefully there are going to be some lovely brotherly scenes coming up as well as Paul/Carla:wub:
Sonny I just want to disappear he really is a smug G**, Sean needs to wake up and smell the coffee.
Liz's new fella - My god what the hell are they doing! Liz's lovers are just getting worse! Think I prefer Vernon.
Yes, another exceelnt week on the cobbles, with another great week to come!
Can someone answer a question that I'm sure I should know the answer to...Who is selling Charlie's house?
Not entirely sure, but I do know it's going to the Mortons this Friday.
Now that WAS a good episode tonight, much better. Star of the show was, yet again, Dreary.
An Estate Agent:rotfl:Quote:

Love the turn around in the Connor family of:
Michelle/Paul - going from the "Happy go lucky" peace keepers to a couple of angry bulls,
Michelle - full of anger and hurt due to Smug git plus not very happy with brother Paul for his "attack" on son Ryan.
Paul - of course, in a real moodie because something his been stirred inside him from Ryan's joyriding..
Nice to see a bit of agro between these two espec as we have seen how close they normally are.
Liam/Carla - the two Connors who normally give all the grief are now on the receiving end. These two are now trying to be the peace keepers as well as the ones giving the love and support.
I love the way Liam is looking out for Paul, trying to keep him in line.
Yes really loving all the Connor stuff espec the fact that we are now getting to know the "real" them.
Deirdre yes on form as usual getting a shock when she went for a fag in the back yard. With Deirdre finding out about Tracy's secret it has kicked a bit of life into this storyline.
Leanne/Jamie great.
Star of the show of course Paul:wub: :p
Loving Corrie at the moment. I'm glad Peter is back hopefully he will be staying. I have to say if Sean had done that to my sister or brother i would have done more than fired him after all it does take two to tango and Sean did know Michelle was seeing him. I think Paul is very protective of his family maybe even more of Michelle and Ryan since what happened with Dean. I think the Connors are a great addition to the cast. BTW the shirt looked so much better on Peter than Dev. Loving Liam and Leanne they will make a great couple.
