So what do we all make of Marcus and Maria now? Think people are being a tad unfair on them. Even Kirk!!!

Loved Steve locking rob in the van.

Looking forward to seeing where the Tina pregnancy thread will go - hope Tommy comes to terms with it all. Loved the happy faces of Izzy and Gary.

Oh and Sarah Lou and Beth. They won't be able to afford the travel costs either. Not liking the new 'I'm serious about my career' kylie. Prefer her and David to be abnoxious and troublesome.

Has Tina had her teeth done. They're looking v fake.

Sleepyfergus · 12/12/2012 23:44

Where are Sarahlou and Beth again? Is it Milan? And why? Did she leave with a bloke.....I just can't remember!

Carla was looking rough I thought. And I'm so sick of her black and white wardrobe. Surely being in sunny California might have injected a bit of colour into it?

And yy to Kirsty being stunning. I almost thought Ty was going to waver when he saw how gorgeous she looked.

Tina's teeth - yes! Did you ever see that episode of 'Friends' when Ross had his teeth whitened, and they went all luminous under UV light. Beware Tina, beware! Between that and her fake tan and gel nails, she's teetering dangerously on TOWIE territory!

LightHousekeeping · 12/12/2012 23:58

Carla has fantastic hair. I still want to know how she thinks she can go and live in LA. The pair of them. Where are they planning to work and how do they get work visas nobody else can.

I think we are gearing up to an interesting Christmas down Coronation street.

I read an interview with Ken Barlows son today. Ken is 80 he looks fantastic Grin how old is he supposed to be in the show?

whatkungfuthat · 13/12/2012 08:16

Aren't the people who played his son and dodgy grandson both his sons in RL?

gregssausageroll · 13/12/2012 08:58

I am a bit over the drinking story although the fight was good last night.

WhoKnowsWhereTheMistletoes · 13/12/2012 09:00

I'm all behind again, DH stopped recording Monday's second ep so he could watch the football (thanks DH!) and I haven't managed to catch it on ITV Player yet, who's drinking?

gregssausageroll · 13/12/2012 09:12

Carla. She was asked to pick Simon up at school and drove while she had been drinking. Simon took the keys off her and ran home to Leanne. Big fight erupted between Carla and Leanne.

WhoKnowsWhereTheMistletoes · 13/12/2012 09:20

That's bad, hasn't she learnt anything after that crash? Leanne really annoys me but she is far better for Simon than Carla ever will be.

LightHousekeeping · 13/12/2012 10:48

Leanne wants Peter back. You can tell.

Bakingnovice · 13/12/2012 10:57

Tina is starting to look silly. She's browner than my Indian best friend. She really is. She's had her teeth done , her top lip is looking suspiciously bigger and it's bloody obvious she's had eyelashes stuck on. Had to laugh when Faye asked her if she had falsies on! It's dilly because Tina is a stunner anyway and we know they're poor and between working two
Jobs and being pg how does she have time to be constantly tanning herself!! In the old days actors weren't allowed to look too tanned or too made up or to change hairstyles.

Carla - loved Carla. That hair. That flat. That car. Then she got with Peter and its all gone downhill.

Sneepy · 13/12/2012 16:54

I think Peter is actually going to win the title for orangest corrie cast member. Tina is pretty bad but he is positively mahogany! I don't think the CA sun turns you that color.

alemci · 13/12/2012 17:10

have you noticed the way Mandy has become over familiar with Stella. She has only worked there for 5 minutes but acts if she has been there for years' and Stella is her boss.

Also Kylie's bun. She had a thin ponytail earlier in the episode.

yes Ken's son and grandson were in the show. his son is Linus Roache and his gs was the one who worked in the homeless shelter and tried to remortgage Ken's house.

Sleepyfergus · 13/12/2012 18:12

Yes, not sure I like Mandys over familiarity having only been on the scene 5 minutes. Doesn't feel right.

TaffyandTeenyTaffy · 13/12/2012 19:03

Has Peter had his teeth done - or do they just look very big and white agiainst his ultra-tan?

MrsSalvoMontalbano · 13/12/2012 20:12

ooh, haven't yet been abe to see this week's episodes, as have been away on biz in France, but looking forward to settling down tonight to catch up via itvplayer, and reading this is like foreplay Blush Grin

SwedishEdith · 13/12/2012 20:22

How come Carla and Peter have moved/planned to move to the US? As far as I know, you can't just move to America just because you want to.They have pretty tight immigration rules. They never trouble themselves with such minor inconveniences in soaps

LightHousekeeping · 13/12/2012 22:28

That's what I said half way up the page. They talk as if its just moving to Scotland or something. as if they'd get residency in California. Because they are such a catch.

alemci · 13/12/2012 22:29

also wasn't that roughly where Nic was going to take him and Leanne on holiday so what a daft storyline.

Bakingnovice · 13/12/2012 22:46

Totally daft. Peter looks like he's come back from an episode of Extreme Makeover. And how are they paying for all this jet setting. As of anyone with leave their son with Leanne. She's not even his proper mum.

Like ken. Cannot get over the hair. The colour, the movement, the volume, the body, the swooosh. But didn't like the Wendy storyline at all.

Mandy - cannOt stand this character. Over familiar with everyone. And really loathe her sack dresses. Ok she brightens up the pub with a bit of colour but by heck is she wooden and I'll say it again , there's no way she's a match for Lloyd.

Footface · 14/12/2012 09:46

I missed most if corrie, but has Carla been drinking ir did si just think that?

PoppyAmex · 14/12/2012 10:37

Still behind (as usual) but just watched the scene at the Rovers:

Tina: I'm a surrogate mum
Tommy: You're muck, that's what you are. Shock

He is such a loser.

alemci · 14/12/2012 11:14

But you have to hand it to Mandy. She always has a co ordinating head band to match each 'sack dress'. :)

ajandjjmum · 15/12/2012 06:25

Can't believe Peter is staying.

Sleepyfergus · 15/12/2012 09:20

Just caught up and not happy that Peter is staying. He looks a bit weird with his tan and new found 'lets talk about it' mantra.

Actually, he looks like a cross between a Musketeer and a pub magician.

Wasn't the Lollipop men/women thing cringeworthy? Tiring very quickly of that 'story' line.

WhoKnowsWhereTheMistletoes · 15/12/2012 09:41

8've been wondering about Carla and Peter and the money. Are they both still living on the profits of the bookies and factory? Does Leanne still co-own the bookies? What are Carla and Peter actually doing in America? I hate the new look Peter as well. Haven't seen Friday's yet, has he decided to stay.

I'm also tiring of the lollipop thing. I think I might have missed an episode a week or two back (or been writing Christmas cards and not concentrating) - what happend with Steve in the first place?

Wish Carl and Sunita would disappear again.
