There was a half-hearted attempt to explain all the guests at her party by saying they were more interested in Callum's body than Bethany. Plus, bullies would normally wait until their victim was on her own rather than in a group of friends.

However, this lack of thought is another indication of Corrie's current lack of interest in building believable characters and storylines. I suppose we're to assume that Bethany's bullying problem was solved because the perpertrators were impressed that she apparently has an older boyfriend with a car... :searchme:

Crawls out of hole and kills one of his druggie pals and dumps him in hole along with his plastic card. If the body is badly decomposed there may not be any prints but DNA identification will prove who it actually is. No mention has been made of this by the polis who of course are stilll at the scene

Sounds very EastEnders to me. one word Claudette. :D

I feel like an idiot not to have realised the uncharacteristically helpful Phelan was behind the theft of Norris' roof. It's so very obvious with hindsight... :o

Don't you think Todd and Billy are well suited, more so than Billy and Sean?

Don't worry Dazzle we can be idiots together. Poor Norris, clever stuff, I may be a bit thick (don't answer that) but I didn't see that scam coming either with Pat and those tiles. I wish we have a few more surprises instead of all these spoilers.

She was only buried under a very thin layer of soil and she didn't replace herself with a near identical body. :p

Very much so; I think they have a very believable chemistry and the fact that Billy confides in Todd instead of Sean says it all. I'm really hoping they get together (but only after Billy finishes with Sean).

From Corrie Spoilers 30th May to 3rd June:

"Out on the street, Phelan basks in Norris' gratitude for saving his roof before meeting up with Alastair. Was this another of Phelan's scams?"

I missed that! :o

As much a possible I try and avoid spoilers now, I rarely go on DS now for that very reason and since they have changed the site it is not very user friendly.

I didn't think he'd be quite so adamantly against blaming a dead man to be honest. Hopefully he's got a thing for bad boys... :p

Steve recuperating from his depression in Spain is a retcon as far as I'm concerned. That was never mentioned while he was gone, plus I'm sure his depression had been miraculously cured a while since. Michelle isn't a sympathetic character but, as far as she knew at the time, her husband had abandoned her, so I'm on her side in this situation (despite the fact I have a long-standing soft spot for Steve :wub:).
