Corrie thread - Can we have another minibus trip with a bigger cliff?

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

As someone else said, the last one was a wasted opportunity.

I would like to give tickets to:

Simon
Chesney & girlfriend
Faye
All the Windasses
Tracey-Luv
Michelle
Sawphie
Owen
Kal and all his family

Plenty more seats available, feel free to add some more passengers!

If you lived in a flat, would you put the baby in the pram before going down the stairs?!

Exactly. That is going to be some palaver every time they decide to take the baby for a walk. I doubt it would be a priority, taking the baby for a walk, in the circumstances, just barely home from hospital. I know it was to allow for the scene where Faye told Sophie who the dad is, but that could have taken place in Faye's room - presume she has a room - or Anna and Gary could have gone to the shop or something, and left the baby with Faye and Sophie.

Also, that scene with Anna, Gary and Owen, just before the police arrived (and how did they know which guy was Owen), where Anna was talking, was she supposed to be talking aloud to herself. It looked really strange, as though the camerawork was a bit off.

I don't see how Owen is surprised at the police being called. You assaulted a 13yr old and injured his stepdad, you twonk! And then weren't even remorseful!

I still don't get Tim's subdued reaction. He's found out his just-turned 13 year old daughter has had a baby and it's not a big deal for him at all.

I was amazed Tim didn't kick off at Anna about Faye. Or seem too bothered about how she'd actually got pregnant. Owen may have gone too far assaulting Craig/Kirk but his reaction was the more typical 'dad' reaction.

Is Faye part of some sort of open adoption? I didn't realise your biological parent could legally still be so involved and living down the same street. I can't remember her back story.

I can't remember (even tho' I am sure I must've been watching Corrie then) which of the Grimsahws Sarah was married to? Seems like Todd is amused but detached friend whereas Jason seems more intense.

Each, no she contacted him online. The SW decided that it was good that he wanted to be involved IIRC.

I think maybe a bit of Tim's reaction versus Owen's is to show Owen up even more, as being unreasonable, especially in attacking Craig, and that Anna will want to break up with him. He is leaving next week.

Sarah has been involved with both Grimshaws. She became pregnant with Todd's (before he knew he was gay), but baby was premature and died. She then married Jason (on the 2nd attempt), and they are now divorced. Next in line looks to be Callum.

Gail and Eileen's street fighting was always hilarious. They should do it again

I remember really fancying Adrian (Eileen's date) when he was in Brookie (wasn't he called Owen in that?). Not sure I do in Corrie though, something about his teeth .

Even before the baby thing had kicked off Anna was being really cool with Owen, but why? Was it because she was also pissed of with him not telling his daughters about their mother?

Am surprised they haven't shown Norris giving his two pence worth re the 'gymslip mum' and Owen knocking him out on the cobbles.

Can't get away with Sarah Lou, she's always got a little smirk on her face, and I don't like seeing Callum acting like a gormless, lovestruck 15 year old.

was he a Shadwick in Brookside who lived in the bungalow with Jennifer Ellison, was his fil Ray played by Kenneth Cope?

Greg Shadwick, that was it! Yes, Jennifer Ellison was his daughter, along with the one with blonde curly hair (who went out with Rod The Plod possibly?). And yes, I think Kenneth Cope was the FIL.

I think Anna's been cool with Owen ever since all that stuff with that guy who blackmailed her into having sex with him. Owen's reaction was awful. It seems like she's been gradually seeing parts of him that she dislikes. He's been nasty to Gary over the split with Izzy too.

That was quite a funny scene when Jason and Sarah were pretending to be all over each other to annoy Bethany. Liked Sarah's line "...little match-maker!" and Beth's mortified face!

Owen was also nasty to Gary, over something or other, (since it involves Gary/ Windass family, my memory refuses to search), but anyway, it was another nail in the coffin as regards Owen and Anna's relationship.

Owen has been nasty to Gary over:

Gary attacking nasty property developer
Gary splitting up with Izzy
Gary going off the rails again and robbing Roy
Gary getting together with Kal's daughter

Owen also slapped Faye, was hideously cruel to Eileen when they were together and totally destroyed his daughters' relationship with their mother. Anna should have LTB years ago.

I didn't know Owen and Eileen were together . It must have been before I became obsessed started watching

Oh yes, it was splitting with Izzie and taking up with Alya...that's what I was thinking of. I took a break from Corrie (after being a devoted fan forever and a day), when the Windasses had centre stage, there was a guy with straggly hair, Eddie or something, in it, at the time.
I had read that Eileen and Owen were together but wasn't watching at the time.
I feel another break, for me, coming on. Too many weak characters centre stage and ridiculous storylines.

Hi just gatecrashing to ask a question. Why is there a photo of Chesney on Anna and Owens wall? Looks like a school pic.

I had presumed it was Gary's school pic.

I wonder how Sarah and Jason (the actors) feel about this storyline when, I think, their RL split was a bit acrimonious?

Blue, a school photo of Chesney would be odd. But it isn't strange they have a photo of him, he is the father of there dgs though I have forgotten his name.

Is it Steve's 6th wedding? Is that a record??

Vicky
Karen
Becky
Tracey
Michelle

Or is she counting both Becky weddings?
