Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

i have gone off cathy since neasa's arrival

It still needs to be registered annually but there's no longer a disc to display. My car still had its old tax disc on display because I keep forgetting to remove it. No doubt lots of people are the same, although Roy isn't really the type to be so remiss.

Mine still has one in. It's the only tax disc that's ever been mine!

Thank you Corrie for Ken remembering Deirdre and finishing with Nessa

Did anyone notice that Mr Selfridge's secretary/ assistant was played by Nessa.?

I quite enjoyed tonights double bill, even Sophie was bearable. Loved her line about being there when Kevin tells Sally about Anna.

The Roy/Carla scenes are always quality and a joy to watch and I have really warmed to Cathy. If any actor was meant to be on the cobbles then it has got to be Melanie Hill. A perfect fit.

i find anna and kevin not a good fit and match

I think it was more that Ken just couldn't stand another minute in Nessa's self-obsessed company. I had to laugh when she made the fire all about herself! He'll no doubt be sniffing after Audrey before very long.

I'm going to miss Nessa in a strange way (I'm assuming she's gone for good). I think her larger than life personality would fit into Corrie very well if they'd just tone down her more annoying traits.

Roy and Cathy were sweet...

Their relationship feels very contrived, especially since Anna's personality has done another u-turn and reverted back to earth mother mode (as opposed to screeching martyr mode).

lets hope ken isn't sniffing around cathy when roy is away

I know you shouldn't compare soaps and all that mullarkey, but when you watch the likes of Fizz and Tyrone and then watch Shabnam and Kush in EE there is a gigantic difference in acting ability. The Hope storyline is good, if it was given to the right actors. I know you couldn't really throw anymore sorrow onto the Platts, but that storyline would have been great with David and Kylie.

When Tyrone was kicking hell out the vending machine and the hoo hah with the porter (who I thought looked like a relative of John Stape) walked off to 'The Monkey Ward'. How appropriate. Tyrone reminds me of a monkey. That porter did seem a bit creepy when he said Hope Stape. Perhaps he is John Stapes brother????

Do you mean John Stape, the accidental murderer and Fiz's ex? That was a great storyline.

I enjoyed Sally calling Jamie Oliver common.
