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

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

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.

Was there any point to the Tracy arrest and release episode, or was it just a time-filler?

I've read that too Jo4040, way to ruin what should have been a nice send-off!

I've also read about the Tracey-luv aspect to the upcoming story and not happy about it.

Had a corrie fest after returning from my hols. Interesting Lianne twist with ex-client turning up. Glad the writers haven't forgotten her past (like they seem to do with so many other characters).

I've read it too, and am disappointed to think that it may well just turn completely into yet another Tracy storyline instead of honouring Deirdre appropriately.

Just read the comments here about Deirdre's funeral so went to have a look at Digital Spy. Bloody hell. We do not need any more focus on Tracey-Luv.

I know this is pathetic but I have an irrational hatred for the way Tracey mangles the name McDonald. She really stretches it out. She should know better as she was one for about 5 mins She is a terrible, one-trick pony actress.

She is a terrible, one-trick pony actress.

Totally agree. I'd say she doesn't have to put any effort in, just the same old rubbish, over and over.

Sorry missed a few episodes but why is Todd helping Liz ruin Tracey ? I thought they got on as she was the only one yo give him a job

I thought it was just in response to her making him clear the stock room. Also a chance to hurt Jason by ruining Tony.

Did Tony dump Tracey?

No she dumped him when he failed to get the pub.

Todd will hurt anyone, it seems.

I was half watching, so I wasn't sure whether Todd was helping, or not. They have made him into a ridiculous character.

Todd is completely amoral. Any one noticed The Scar lately?

Todd decided to help Liz on foot of Tracy being a bit rude to him earlier in the day and telling him to clear out the stock room (which he reckoned wasn't part of his job description).

Yes the scar is shrinking away nicely eddie

I'm really struggling to watch corrie at the moment too. The storylines are so weak and pathetic. Probably time for me to switch off which is also pity as I've watched it for over 40 yrs. Glad its not just me feeling this way.

Perhaps we should tweet them this thread?

Let's think of a really positive thing to say about corrie...Its not on five evenings a week like Emmerdale!!!

Has anyone noticed that in the hairdressers they only straighten/comb/blow dry/put curlers in hair... Can't Corry afford a pair if rubber scissors?!

also the way the actors ignore the clients and have conversations with each other unless it is one of the cast

I'm really enjoying the story with Leeann and Dan. I guess it'll all end in tears.

Why doesn't Leanne see that Simon is a confused little boy, well nearly teenager but you know what I mean, he's lost so many people in his life and has had so many stand in parents, Nick, Carla, Kal and probably a few I can't remember, his real father comes in and out of his life, sure he doesn't know who owns him and now his grandmother will be gone, the child needs counselling for goodness sake.

A few months ago, some of us thought the writers were slowly building up a romance between Ken and Audrey. Tonight I think we had another hint it's coming when she was mistaken for 'Mrs Barlow'.

Missed a few but watched tonight's. Uneasy about the Deirdre storyline because we all know what's coming. I'd rather she just died at Bev's and not this big birthday build up, new oven etc. and then instead of Deirdre walking through the door it's Bev with the bad news. So unlikely and not necessary.
How boring to have even more of Kylie/David/Callum, you'd think they could've binned this by now.
