Corrie thread - New thread for the New Year, time for another disaster?

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

New thread in time for the new year - hopefully this year will see the back of some awful characters.

I would personally like to see the following rounded up and shoved in a deep hole in the Red Rec:

Izzy
Anna
Owen
Gary
Michelle
Tracey-Luv
Gavin
Faye
Yasmeen and her entire extended family
The Community Centre
Kylie
Todd
Steph

That'll do for starters.

I'm laughing AnneEyhtMare because I had that EXACT thought when posting earlier.

Please can Michael somehow be on the bus, hit by the bus...anything. I nod off, as soon as he speaks. Proposing to Gail, how ridiculous, they are a wet week together.

I did enjoy Audrey's piece of advice to Mary tonight. I hope Mary heeds it. I'm still annoyed with her about her cruelty to Roy, in his hour of need. A friend in need is a friend indeed and all that...

Gail,PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE say NO!!!!!

Is it evil that I now think of the actress that plays jazz hands Andrea as Hayley Tramadol?

I'm afraid I notice the mundane things. How come Gail was able to have washing on the line in January, and it dries?!! Is Corrie somewhere tropical? Last time I looked it was only 20 miles from my house

Why is the ironing board always on display? They have an under stairs cupboard it could go in. And where is Les Dennis sleeping? I thought that Gail was in the box room and Kylie did once suggest moving her to the garage

I'm assuming they're using the under stairs cupboard as a bedroom hence not being able to fit the ironing board in it .....

Good point

I thought that about the washing. I was also confused about what time of day it was meant to be. We had just seen three scenes in different households involving people having or not having eggs for breakfast then it was straight to Gail taking dry washing off the line.

Yes the washing was obviously off the line before lunch because Gail was then going to drop maxs lunch box off at school for him.
I've got washing on the line now. Think I need to move to Corrie to get it to dry...

Surely Gail isn't a slattern who leaves washing out overnight?

Can you imagine what Sally would have to say about that?

Bet sadly is a mnetter!!

sally not sadly

I can just imagine Sally on AIBU!

Oh noooo
Faye spoiler

I'm disappointed in you, CS scriptwriters. I thought you might have changed your minds about the pregnancy.

Me too, in fact the whole show has been tiresome recently. Sad to say that EE beat it hands-down over Xmas for me.

Disappointing that story with Faye is going ahead. Just feels like a rehash of the SaraLou teen pregnancy story, from all those years ago.

Disappointed. I hope that they focus on the effects of teen pregnancy on a young girl rather than just giving Owen and Gary opportunities to shout and look for someone to beat up. I like the idea that Craig will be her confidante as he is fast becoming a lovely character but suspect this will put him in the firing line as number one suspect and top of Gary / Owen's shout list.

Craigy is SO underused!

Oh no was really hoping they'd scrapped this story. I absolute hate that whole family and faye just does not have any acting talent to carry any story off let alone this one. This family are at the centre of huge plots all the time and it drives me mental.

i hope Michaels heat hurries up and gives in. This story is ridic. He burgled gails house but within months he's moved in and engaged and giving everyone advice. Fuck off you simpering whimpering bloated moaner.

I want to know how ches/siobhan/kirk/beth/ty are able to afford to have every meal especially every breakfast in the cafe. Most of their scenes are in there.

I really hope the bus takes out all the above with michelle andrea and tracy too. I'm struggling to watch these days and will be taking a break when the faye story kicks off.

Whimpering bloated moaner

I'm starting to like Yasmeen's husband and his hens.

I'm not! It's January, they're pullets, of course they're not laying ffs!

So not looking forward to the Faye storyline. You've done it BEFORE!

Speaking of which I did laugh when reading on Digitalspy that Bethany 'bores of her life in Milan so runs away to Weatherfield'. Yes, Weatherfield looks so glam in comparison to Milan.

What's the bet she'll have a broad Northern accent despite having been brought up in Italy?

The main creator was on this morning bigging corrie up. Massive plots this year for the blasted windasses (booo), michelle (hisssss) and steve, and.... wait for it........ kylie (SOB!!!!!!). Shes coming back mid year.

Hes completely oblivious to how terrible some characters and plots are. I would suggest plot featuring mary and roy becoming v good friends, something more with the funny couples julie-dev sally-tim, more jason eva, more steve and liz, norris rita and emily are good too and beth and kirky. Please kill the rest off mr creator.
