Corrie scriptwriters should read this thread (Corrie queens)

[Sleepyfergus]

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

Haven't seen Fridays yet, but who's Mandy? And Debbie?

Not sure about Debbie but Mandy is Lloyd's matronly partner

Oh, I'm sorry to hear Brian will be going. I think his character's a nice take on comedy salt-of-the-earth, and the pairing with Julie works really well. I shall miss Hayley, too :(

I'm also loving the new, tipsy, single Deirdre! Looks like she's going to have a lot of fun with that :)

It can't be long now before there is an explanation for Ken's absence. Probably he's gone to 'support' one of his absent children or grandchildren [I'm sure there must be plenty around]. My wish is that after 'years of struggling with his sexuality' Ken has finally' come out' and has gone to spend his remaining years with his secret lover [guess who] in Germany. those end less trips to 'the library' were not what they seemed!

Did any of you see this?

Hmm well hopefully people will know Corrie is fictional and Tina/ Izzy situ not to be taken as fact.
I didn't realise you weren't allowed to do it for money though.

Thanks KungFu, I'd completely forgotten about her!!

I repeat, Who's Debbie?

I think someone has mixed up some names. There isn't a Debbie. I think they mean Beth.

I mean Anna !! She's Debbie in real life

Is she? I think Anna suits her better!

In fact Kylie's real name is Paula which I think really doesn't suit her!

I have no idea how I would get that mixed up - I'm going to start expecting to see Norris in my corner shop soon. Deary me.

Love watching how David's plan pans out. He plants one tiny seed of doubt in their heads and the rest just does it itself! I prefer that kind of cunning deviance to him wrecking their flat.

Loved Roy and Hayley's scene too.

Poor Craig, he is really sweet. The Faye thing is boring, surely hunger would have driven her over the road days ago?

I really feel for Faye! She thinks nobody wants her - I've forgotten the conversation she overheard, but she took it to mean Anna would rather Faye wasn't around :( Can't believe Tim hasn't phoned Anna to see how Faye is, nor even to tell her he was staying away a bit longer! Twit.

I love Craig, too. Why on earth would David assume Kylie will leave him if he tells her he knows she cheated, but still loves her, Max and baby? I mean, I know he's weird in the head but ... He is an evil little git, though, isn't he?!

Thanks for explaining who Debbie is, Ken

Just watching Monday's episode - look at the colour of Tina!! I thought there was something wrong with the contrast on my telly.

Weirdly she looks a bit better in the second episode out in the open air. Still very dark though.

She's a fan of the old sunbeds I think

I've always assumed Michelle Keegan was part Indian because of her looks & colouring - apparently not! Her mother's half Spanish. She tans well, evidently ...

Just read that Dr Matt has left - they had no decent storylines for him so he decided to go. The actor was complaining that they didn't integrate him into the street, but I guess it would be hard for a doctor to really develop personal relationships with people in their community - although he did go out with Tina for a while .

Yh, all he ever did was ponce around looking lovely, exercising standard telly medical compassion. Shame, really. He was a twat to Tina, though.

David's tee-shirt reminds me of the new Tesco value range:

Just got next week's Radio Times.It mentions "the much anticipated racist storyline". Has anyone else heard about this?

Yes eddie, apparently Paul says something off the cuff about "playing the white man" and it causes ructions.
