Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[mariba]

I found the whole scattering of Michael's ashes so pointless! i mean why? They had his funeral, should have been enough..And where they scattered them?? In some puddle!? I can understand scattering ashes into the sea, but not some small lake/puddle..Unless it's your dog or cat that's died.

How come Brian and Tyrone were still wearing their dirty clothes at the reception? They both live on the street, surely they would have had time to go and get changed.
I liked the fact that roy didn't marry Cathy..although he was quite rude to her. Didn't he understand or didn't he care? And why couldn't they just put it off for now and continue their relationship? That wasn't discussed at all.
I still hope that Cathy would stay around and work at the cafe though..She brings more life into that place.
But if she goes, I hope she takes Alex with her. Sorry.

Nick is getting annoying again. I hope there won't be any clashes between him and Peter again. It's just repeat if that happens.

Roy admitted he cared for Cathy but does not love her although Cathy loves him. In that case a continued friendship, which I am sure will be the case, is the best solution. I too hope Cathy will keep working in the cafe.

No, most people wouldn't want to continue a relationship with someone they were going to marry but who has admitted doesn't love them. I think it's still possible they'll get back together though because at the end of the episode Roy looked like he might be regretting Cathy being gone.

Sally: Coming dressed like that to a wedding. It's the heigth of rudeness.
Sinead: Heigth?
Sally: Yes, it's a word. Look it up.
I did, out of interest and surprisingly there is an entry about it, although it's not a word: http://englishplus.com/grammar/00000285.htm

I didn't even notice that Sally said "heigth"!

While scattering Michael's ashes:
Gail: He's at peace now.
It instantly occurred to me, that it was more likely the other spelling of the word: 'He's in pieces now.'

Yeah, most people wouldn't want to continue a relationship with someone they were going to marry but who has admitted doesn't love them. I think it's still possible they'll get back together though because at the end of the episode Roy looked like he might be regretting Cathy being gone.

I thought he looked relieved ... was able to put his old wedding ring back on, tidied up the room (could not see what he put away in a drawer) ..although I am sure he will feel a bit lonely once the realisation of what happened has hit ...

I agree there was some relief there. Hopefully seeing regret on his face too was a mistake on my part.

I really liked that Roy forcing himself to go through with the wedding was a kind of homage to Hayley.

If Cathy continues to work at the café just hope Anna doesn't return. As far as Tyrone's concerned , overalls are normally worn to protect clothing .Surely ,even for Tyrone how long does it take to get the overalls off or as Mariba suggests put a change of trousers on. I guess it was supposed to be funny.... Liked Cathy's reference to Brian as Usain Bolt.

The way Anna is still very poorly and hardly able to move, I expect it will be a while before she returns to the cafe ... but of course, living with Kevin might miraculously speed up the healing process ...

how can cathy just go back working for roy and being his friend she needs clean break at least for some time

Rather Cathy and Alex than Nessa who would make a move on Roy, I am sure, she is so thick skinned
