Ah, yes, cinnamon - all those instances of 'afternoon delights' . Grin

Horsemad · 12/03/2014 14:14

Oooh 'eck, caught today's episode - haven't watched for months.

Not much has happened, has it?!

OodlesofOods · 12/03/2014 14:22

Liked Kevin's outburst at FOD Grin

toldmywrath · 12/03/2014 14:23

I must have pmt.Shut your bloody gob gobby when you're eating & stop making that awful smack your chops sound.

cinnamongreyhound · 12/03/2014 14:24

Have you seen the Doctors fb page? Half of ex-brookie cast are going to guest star!

OodlesofOods · 12/03/2014 14:25

horse Gobby lost her memory? Think that's the only relevant story.
Jimmi met swingers last week. Few people have been kidnapped, Chris likes getting beaten up. No Hestembe yet :(

OodlesofOods · 12/03/2014 14:25

I saw it Cinnamon!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/03/2014 14:25

This is why I don't like going to the cinema.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/03/2014 14:29

I told you it was on his bum, MsN.

Horsemad · 12/03/2014 14:47

When did Gobby lose her memory? I did see one episode where she was in hospital, that was probably the last time I saw it!

Might watch a bit more if ex Brookie cast are joining! Loved Brookie Grin

LadyMaryLikesCake · 12/03/2014 14:52

Oh, that was ages ago. Her numpty dh backed his car into her while she was pissed and she hit her head. He took her home, thought she was OK but she didn't wake in the morning.

Horsemad · 12/03/2014 15:06

Yeah, I knew it had happened; just couldn't remember when it happened and knew that was the last time I watched Grin

OodlesofOods · 12/03/2014 19:59

Horsemad Sinbad is on the 'guest stars' list.

cinnamongreyhound · 12/03/2014 20:05

Yep and mick and tinhead, I think :)

Horsemad · 12/03/2014 20:10

Brill! Sinbad was great - and Tinhead: I'd forgotten about him!

Can't wait!

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 12/03/2014 21:11

I loved Brookie. Sinbad was awful in Corrie though, as were his entire family, they just didn't work at all as characters.

Wishfulmakeupping · 12/03/2014 21:18

What happened to the temp who was covering for karen she was in the Xmas panto episodes? Is she gone now?

cinnamongreyhound · 12/03/2014 21:28

Yes thank goodness Wishfulmakeupping!! Once Karen resumed her normal duties she was out. She divides the thread a bit, some loved and most hated Val!

Raahh · 12/03/2014 21:45

I only saw bits of Corrie- but wasn't Bobby from Me Too, who was in it the other day, part of his family? It like 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon , DoctorsGrin

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/03/2014 21:47

I think I was the sole Val-lover. Blush

Sinbad will always be Sinbad. He was terrible in Corrie because they tried to make him be someone other than Sinbad. Just like another future guest star, Barry from Eastenders, whatever he does, he will always be that one character in the nation's consciousness.

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 12/03/2014 21:51

Yes, she was his daughter, she was the most annoying out of the whole family. Not surprising really - Me Too was just about the worst children's programme I ever remember watching and she was just about the worst character in that as well.

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 12/03/2014 21:53

It sometimes works though, when Michelle Collins joined Corrie I couldn't see her as anyone except Cindy Beale and I only think of her as Stella now.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 12/03/2014 22:14

Oh yes, some people can switch (although I still call Cindy Cindy) but Sinbad and Barry will forever be Sinbad and Barry.

Me Too was like competitive bad acting / terrible characters. The taxi driver and the train buffet steward were the least convincing couple in all of fiction ever.

OodlesofOods · 13/03/2014 06:40

Dh is obsessed with the fruit seller on me too. Is the character blind or just the actor?

Raahh · 13/03/2014 13:27

Ood The actor is blind, and a stand up comedian I think, in his 'real job'.
