Nobody, but nobody, buys a cot 5 minutes into a pregnancy, and then erects it, and then leaves it in a tiny living room for the duration. If that was a contrived route to enable Hope to set the fire then they shouldn't have bothered - she's an experienced arsonist (!) and could have done that at any time in an attempt to get "daddy" to come back home to live. Tyrone has enough money to buy a complete new wardrobe of clothes, endless amounts of not yet needed baby stuff, expensive cocktails in a hotel etc etc, but not enough to buy his daughter some trainers - utter nonsense. All we need now is for Silly Billy to emigrate and Corrie will have improved dramatically with the end of two awful storylines.
