It's going to be heartbreaking.

They really need to get rid of Tiny Fireman and Mandy.

I would love Becky to come back for a bit bit can't see it happening.

I am so ancient I can remember TraceyLuv being born,and she was called Lynette at first! Her dad,Ray Langton, registered the birth while Deirdre was in hospital and calling her Lynette all the time...she was furious when he admitted he'd registered the name Tracey instead.

Viviennemary · 29/07/2013 17:01

I remember Tracey as a baby too. She was in the corner shop in her pushchair and Betty said something like what a little ray of sunshine she was. What changed. (Except the actress playing her!)

whatkungfuthat · 29/07/2013 17:06

I hope it's either mini-Barrowman, Sawphie, Lloyd's mum, joyless Jenna, Trouser Smell Fireman, Tracey-Luv or Easter Island Statue who gets squished

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 17:10

Jez Quigley! I'd forgotten all about him. Didn't Des Barnes have a boat that got ruined in a fire?

I'm ancient too - I remember when Gail was living in a house share and when she married Brian.

momnipotent · 29/07/2013 17:14

I remember Gail marrying Brian and how she used to battle with Ivy. I love looking up the characters and reading some of the storylines. Yesterday I read up on Hayley and was reminded that she had a son! I had totally forgotten that - it was from a tryst before her op, and remember, she found him working in a record shop! I don't think he has even been mentioned again since!

whatkungfuthat · 29/07/2013 17:18

Didn't Des set fire to the boat when he found out his wife Steph? was leaving him?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 17:34

Think you are right about the boat / fire / Steph!

Ivy Tilsey was a shockingly awful character - I remember when she had botox or a facelift or something in real life and she ended up with a fish mouth but of course no one in Corrie mentioned it!

I think the bit about Hayley having a son must have happened when I flounced from watching Corrie for a couple of years. So how old is the son now then? Surely he must be in it for the death storyline? Especially in light of how upset Roy was when he found out his Dad died before he could meet up with him again?

EeTraceyluv · 29/07/2013 17:35

Des certainly did! he and steph came into it because steph's dad was building the new houses - anyone remember when tracey nearly got crushed as a baby?

dirtyface · 29/07/2013 17:38

hayleys storyline is so sad

corrie is shit lately

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 17:40

Yes - outside the pub! Such a shame it didn't kill her.

whatkungfuthat · 29/07/2013 18:13

I had a Corrie break just after Sarah-Louise got pg. Mine was due to Sky not having ITV at the time and our aerial disappearing during a storm so I couldn't switch onto antenna Blush

momnipotent · 29/07/2013 18:55

The son must be 20 something now, his name was Christian. I can't remember how it came about that Hayley figured out who he was but initially she told him she was his aunt then there was a big reveal that no, actually she is his father and he didn't react well and Becky went and "had a word". He left Manchester then.

Would love for Becky to come back for the funeral or before.

Sallystyle · 29/07/2013 19:39

Katie looks brown!

DesperateHousewife21 · 29/07/2013 19:42

Dh even noticed how brown she is!

NuggetofPurestGreen · 29/07/2013 19:59

What about when the jewellery shop man said the engagement ring is 'a once in a lifetime purchase'. Except Carla's been engaged 3 times before and Peter's beens married 3 times.

It's a seven times in a lifetime purchase! Grin

lovelychops · 29/07/2013 20:01

How predictable was that cringe worthy scene with Tracy and Rob, and the paint? Such a cliche. Not to mention their storyline is a snoozefest, I've hardly paid attention to what it is they're supposed to be doing. Kate Ford is a dreadful actress'

Sallystyle · 29/07/2013 20:03

Was that a glimpse of jealous from Gary there?

MrsSchadenfreude · 29/07/2013 20:09

The actress who plays Hayley used to be the barmaid in our local in Kennington before she went on Corrie. She used to moan to us that she only ever got bit parts. Grin

Ellenora5 · 29/07/2013 20:16

So I see Katie has been at Tinas fake tan while she is away, and yep you could see the jealousy in Gropey Garys eyes, he won't take kindly to this at all being the spoiled rotten pup that he is. Puke at Tracey and Rob, both of them are terrible actors. I had to laugh at Seans face when he said that about the dead, fairplay to Hayley for seeing the humour.

DesperateHousewife21 · 29/07/2013 20:40

Wtf is Leanne wearing? Disgusting leather jacket with no shape and yucky granny shoes and odd tights.
She looks like she's stuck in 1996.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 29/07/2013 20:52

Ah , I love Steve and Eileen scenes.

AmIthatHot · 29/07/2013 21:04

I am getting seriously sickened at any interaction between Tracyluv and Rob

Awful

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 21:06

Gosh, 90% of tonight's was boring rubbish. I just want the Hayley storyline and for the Karl situation to be resolved.

valiumredhead · 29/07/2013 21:13

It was crap, and two episodes of crap as well!
