Corrie Thread - Bet Emily is relieved there is one less child for her 24 hour creche

With Miley gone, never to be heard of for the next 15 years until she turns up with a new head, at least Emily won't have to babysit her every day and night for the foreseeable future.

New thread where we can hope the scriptwriters wake up and actually start paying attention to plot lines and character histories.

I love the titles you put on threads Anne. They always make me smile.
+1 to that, re plot lines and histories.

MrsUltracrepidarian · 27/06/2015 18:50

At least with itvplayer can skim past the Alya etc stuff and just focus on Tim & Sally.

Yes, another one here who loves the titles!
I keep hoping they are going to get Tracey for the fire but no one seems to be bothered about that any more.

RedandYellow24 · 27/06/2015 20:23

Is it just me but where are the plot lines at the moment?

Faye storyline ended
Tony affair ended
Fire kills off two people
We have got is Cathy hopeless or living shed/broke thread.
When will Brian bigger off and stop being annoying that's it!

DocHollywood · 27/06/2015 20:25

Perhaps they think that we are all on the edge of our seats wondering if Alya will fess up to Gary Hmm

Marking place with all the passion of a Nick / Carla snog .

ProfYaffle · 27/06/2015 20:29

I'm another one who's been watching for decades. My Mum watched the first episode when she was a teenager and I grew up watching it with her. It's only nostalgia that keeps me tuning in atm.

mrsdavidbowie · 27/06/2015 20:33

Liz got over Tony quickly.
And her new bloke...remember him in The Bill. His teeth annoy me irrationally

southeastdweller · 27/06/2015 21:51

Thanks for the new thread.

I also love the witty titles Grin

Another 34-year watcher here - I can remember Ken and Deirdre's wedding. As dire as Corrie sometimes is these days, I can't ever imagine not watching.

firefly78 · 27/06/2015 21:56

its not great atm is it. what happened with miley? also how have they explained deidres absence??

ProfYaffle · 28/06/2015 09:35

Mily went to live with her Dad and his parents. Deidre's absence hasn't been explained yet. On Friday she wrote some of the pub quiz questions. I think someone on the other thread said her death on the show is imminent, maybe next week?

differentnameforthis · 28/06/2015 09:42

.

eddiemairswife · 28/06/2015 10:09

I also noticed Ken mention Deirdre as if she was now back home.

southeastdweller · 28/06/2015 10:17

I can imagine this thread will be just as active as the last one as there's Deirdre's death (week after next - also there's six episodes that week), then we have the acting titans that are Sarah Harding and Shayne Ward coming into the show.

WireCat · 28/06/2015 10:22

It's really crapness right now. And pathetic in the way Miley was dispatched.

WireCat · 28/06/2015 10:23

Crapness? I only typed crap!

Jo4040 · 28/06/2015 10:24

Noooooo not Sarah Harding. What a bleeeeding joke. Where will she fit in?! God almighty. I actually like corri bca you haven't got aload of slappers wondering down the cobbles ATM. Ayla was brought in when Tina went as the new 'beauty' I read somewhere but she just so boring. Also another burning issue on my mind is this. Wouldn't Tracy be on CCTV in the flats the night they got burnt down? Drrrrr

AgathaChristie01 · 28/06/2015 10:24

Crapness is an even better description, Wire Grin

firefly78 · 28/06/2015 10:30

what happened with miley? surely anna wouldn't have given her up that easily???

Pyjamaramadrama · 28/06/2015 10:43

Just joining new thread, got a few to catch up on atm.

NoMontagues · 28/06/2015 10:49

firefly yes, Anna, whose burning longing for a child brought her to adopt Faye and then continue with the adoption even as a single parent, has just taken all of 5 seconds to decide to hand Miley over to the other grandparents.

It just isn't in keeping with her character. Well, her character's character iykwim. I would have seen Anna moving heaven and earth to keep that baby under her roof.

AgathaChristie01 · 28/06/2015 10:54

Exactly, re Anna.
Nonsense end to what could have been an okay storyline. Still, as per thread title, Emily probably is relieved Wink.

Corrie specialises at the moment in dragging out rubbish storylines, such as the endless Platt/ Callum saga, and Michael and his flipping heart...
And abruptly ending what could have been good storylines, involving good actors, such as Simon Gregson.

NoMontagues · 28/06/2015 10:54

And (while I'm at it) why, oh, why did they have to make a 49 year old woman pregnant only for her to then lose the baby?

Mary is the only good thing in it at the moment imo. Was that a SATC reference she gave at the Rover's pub quiz? I also like Tim, and Amy.

Jo4040 · 28/06/2015 11:33

Yeah, Amy is going to be a little goldmine to them.. She's got a few good story lines coming up. Good little actress. Not like Aldi and Asda, Devs two kids. V wooden. But bit as wooden as Sophie. I always think when a character comes across of hostile and confrontational they can't act any other way. The easiest way to act is being that way. To play a character who is happy, positive and energetic is very difficult.
