The old thread is nearly full. Nice new shiny thread here.

Izzie looks much better with shorter hair.

Why is Dev wearing a Mac? Does he think he's columbo?

or the singing detective :)

The Strange, Strangulated-Voiced Detective

he does talk in a sort of sing song voice though do you not think Kung Fu but granted he is very strange and sounds like he is smirking half the time.

I know what you mean Pepper re the fizzling out storylines eg Faye and waster Dad and my favourite storyline Supernanny Mary, what's happened to that one?

Re the Craig thing, totally missed that, what has he said folks?

Bill Roache has been charged, apparently, with some seriously grim stuff, so Ken will need to be written out for quite a while I would have thought.

alemci I remember Harry Hill showing a selection of weird Dev grunts and strange wailing, but I do think sing-song is true know you mention it

senses Craig was with Beth in the Kabin choosing crisps when Dev came in and started asking Norris about the night of the fire, then Karl came in and did his usual "leave it mate". Craig looked alarmed and told Beth he didn't want crisps from there after all, they are definitely leading viewers into thinking that he knows something

But the fireman would never have liked the Smiths. Sporty, dull, wannabe firemen were more into Dire Straits and their ilk.
Some Corrie writers are so much better than others aren't they? The quality of the dialogue varies so much from episode to episode.

For some reason, Monday night's episodes always seem to have the most unlikely and random lines.....

What difference does it make?

Oh oh oh ...

It makes none
But now you have gone
And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight

and I'm still fond of you

LineRunner, I am not going to do the falsetto bit

there was actually a back story about fireman and wife and all the bands they were into. so this is long standing thing not a New development.

(my x dull fireman also into smiths so it is not unheard of)

Ah thank you WhatKungfu....I totally missed the Craig bit, (was probably wrestling a child at the time). Was wondering what you were all on about!!! Sooooo, Craig us going to be the lynchpin in the fire mystery. And about time too....

PS. My own child I should add!

Please don't go all Morrissey on me, I can't abide him

We should all focus on Craig.

Is Morrissey still vegan and celibate?
I thought he was THE coolest bloke ever when I was a teen (I am very old though)

I did and still love Mozza (apart from his daft outbursts)
My sole thought was getting a boyfriend that looked like him. Then I did and found out he ironed his NMEs.
I doubt he turned into a smelly trouser fireman.

Yes he is. He bans burgers at his shows. My dislike of him used to be manageable until he had the cheek to cover A Song From Under The Floorboards, now it full-on vendetta

Did anyone else think Deirdre looked odd being in Roy's Rolls t'other day? She never goes in there.
