Surely Carla "she of venomous mouth" is able to shut him up for good by just opening her gob👅

How is Lucas supposed to live in Devon and work in the north of England ?

Are we now to have the Debbie story taking over from Ray as the Villian? oh please no more🥱

Not only do I not care about any of the characters, but I am finding it harder to like many of them. Eileen, Sean, Todd, Billy, Daisy, Steve, Kevin, Abby, Leanne, Simon, and Fiz, I find it harder to like any of these. Strangely enough Tracey has become more likeable, or at least not as unlikable.

The most ridiculous aspect of Corrie at the moment, is that there are more gatherings on hospital wards than there are in Roy's Rolls, The Rovers, or either of the restaurants. These current scripts are post-Covid, and are a real smack in the face to people who haven't been able to visit dying relatives in hospital, while numpties like Steve McDonald and the even more ridiculous Lucas stroll onto wards and have cosy mask-less 3 way chats in corridors outside those wards. Even before the pandemic these scenes would have been ridiculous. The scriptwriters just get lazier and lazier as the weeks go by - it's about time they started making an effort again.

It is difficult now to film anything as they are about 6 weeks ahead and nobody knows what rules and regulations are ..

Well there's no excuse from now on as the Government laid out a "road map" on 22 February which takes us up to 21 June. The scriptwriters just need to follow that.

I thought he was only here to set up the deal, after that, the telephone and the internet. Many of the goods we buy in this country are made in China, so North of England is not that that far compared with that.

If that's Jacob gone for good, he will not be missed.

I must admit with the Nina/Asha relationship, she WAS a bit full on at times, I'm not surprised it ended.
