Evelyn being encouraged to study law because she fooled Steve and Alya with a fake letter......... next it will be Hope going to university to study thermodynamics because she can light a fire.
1. It's like Brexit never happened in Weatherfield. How can Gail go and live in France?
2. This story about Daisy, the car and Kit is complete and utter tripe.
Gail was seriously thinking of aborting him. Perhaps she should haveQuote:

So am I, but not because of Jessie, more because EU laws won't allow it!Quote:

She has not gone yet, still time to add a twist, possibly involving Jessie and David's money.Quote:

The best Gail can hope for is that she does not get sun burn, or a dicky tummy on the Cote d'Azur.Quote:

Corrie is getting sillier by the episode.
Is Kit now the only detective in Weatherfield police station? As a DC, does no-one oversee what he is doing? Does no-one else read the reports that are received? Does no-one else check on his cases? Does no-one else check his progress on the cases he handles?
swain is too busy stalking carla and warning off any suitors and craig is off somewhere doing nothing while kit has to prop up the rovers as a customerQuote:

Has he bought the sugar to put in his tea, as I thought most vehicles have lockable petrol tanks? When he originally blocked the van in, was there not another space in the car park where he could have parked? Only once in my life have I ever went to a supermarket when every space was taken and that was at Christmas.Quote:

I cannot remember how David knew about the money in the first place, so I guess that happened off screen too. He said the money was used as a deposit on the house but I thought he gave it to Jessie ?
was mason and his family always connected to harvey and damon or this just new
If it's no to all that and he is not the only detective in Weatherfield, why does no-one supervise him or take any interest in the cases that are being reported?Quote:

I don't think he did. Jesse already had enough money from the sale of his flat. He knew about the money and just told David to be careful with it.Quote:

He has a small flat not a house!!! lolQuote:

The only way out is for David to win the lottery, but we never see him buy a ticket.
To be honest, I could not care less about this storyline... I liked Mason showing what bullies can be like at school... somehow I find his 2 brothers unbelievable, a violent dad, yes but not 2 brothers not much older than he is, surely they would have all suffered at the hand of an abusive parent... why are they bullying their brother???? please, Christmas Day solve the money problem and lets have less bullying, extortion and nasty stuff happening for a while.. please..Quote:
