Corrie thread - How many more implausible plots until the new person takes over? NO SPOILERS PLEASE

995 replies

AnneEyhtMeyer · 03/04/2016 20:03

Have started a new thread as the old one was nearly full and people wanted a "No spoilers" message in the title.

Are we placing too much hope in the new producer? How the hell are they going to get out of the plot holes?

I read the other day that the Les Battersby actor was seen at the studios. I am hoping that was a bad-taste April Fool's joke.

Nick looked ancient leaning against that brick wall. I had to have a second look!

LineyReborn · 11/04/2016 20:48

This is dull tonight. All of it.

RudeElf · 11/04/2016 20:51

Nick looks really unwell! I was shocked at how he looked tonight.

RudeElf · 11/04/2016 20:57

What the hell was that business with yer man turning up with his laptop on?? Confused as if they were going to stand and skype his parents at the door! Err facetime?? Ridiculous.

MadHattersWineParty · 11/04/2016 20:57

Agreed, is the actor unwell? He doesn't look right.

LineyReborn · 11/04/2016 20:58

It's a shame that the most gripping thing about Corrie these days is the state of health of the actors.

theliverpoolone · 11/04/2016 22:49

I quite liked some of tonight's Blush. I thought the running joke about Nick's casual wear was quite funny, and some of the linkages between people sleeping/not sleeping and having watched the same TV programmes. Just normal everyday stuff like they used to do.

I wish ty would knock his front room through, I get depressed just looking at it never mind the eye boggling wall paper. Most of room is taking up by tv and sofa where are kids supposed to play? Compared to Craig and other 4 adults their downstairs is lovely and bright plenty of room.

Can someone explain I thought Kev opened new garage yet all sciences with princess Sophie and her clipboard have been in the old garage? So he's still got himself and two mancanics? They just spread their tools over two sites?

Maria back so boring did anyone miss her??? How has she afforded the rent???

Housewife2010 · 12/04/2016 06:44

If they knocked through Luke would lose his bedroom.

Seeyounearertime · 12/04/2016 08:08

My prediction for Maria is that shes "Fake" married to "Pablo" for some really dull reason.
yup.... that is how imaginative i believe Corrie to be.

(And why Pablo? is that really the only name the writers could think of?)

Akire · 12/04/2016 08:49

Thought most had 3 bedrooms? Craig house had 2 couples plus 1-2 kids. Eileen has 3-4adults with Sean downstairs.

They put room in attic for girls so if Luke is diwnstairs they only have one main bedroom upstairs ?

millimat · 12/04/2016 09:31

Akire, you forget the houses in Corrie are elastic Grin

Cherrypie32 · 12/04/2016 09:40

Pablo is gay and Maria married him in Spain so his parents don't know he's gay or something. She was on Loose Women yesterday.

eddiemairswife · 12/04/2016 09:48

Houses were originally 3-bedrooms, no bathroom, outside lavatory. Most(all) will have converted one bedroom to a bathroom, so only 2 bedrooms. Ty converted loft to playroom, Curly changed loft at Dev's to an observatory. Sean, Amy and Luke sleep in front rooms. Though I can't understand why Luke didn't take over Maria's flat while she was away.

desperatehousewife21 · 12/04/2016 14:03

Lol at Nick and Tyrones convo about the tracksuit 'it's velour!'

Akire · 12/04/2016 17:13

I thought any had own room? Else where would Simon and his dad stay over?

also enjoyed tracksuit lines not the tv show ones there was no comedy there just filler type.

Akire · 12/04/2016 17:15

Don't get why bully moaning about bag being thrown was assault but happy to drag her victim around the playground by her hair.

ProfYaffle · 12/04/2016 18:05

I liked the comments on Nick's tracksuit too. I was peering at it thinking "Is that a velour lounge suit? Confused" when Tyrone said "Is that velour?" Grin

ProfYaffle · 12/04/2016 18:06

I was wondering about that too Akire. "You've not heard the last of this" Of what? Some spilled shampoo??

RudeElf · 12/04/2016 18:42

IME of bullies her and her mum's reactions were typical. They play the victim when called on their bullying behaviour. They are the type that have to "win" so will probably involve the police and get him charged with assault just to get that sense of winning. Regardless of the fact it was them doing the bullying.

HerdOfRhino · 12/04/2016 22:24

I didn't really get why they made such a thing about Nick having to look after Harry, if anything should happen to Sarah. Godparents aren't legal guardians.

RudeElf · 12/04/2016 22:28

Yeah i didnt get that either. I am wondering if it is a hint at something happening to nick.

HerdOfRhino · 12/04/2016 22:34

Yeah, possibly RudeElf.

MargotLovedTom · 13/04/2016 14:21

I was fascinated with Shane Ward's Miracle Gro hair. Talking to Kirk on the faactory steps his hair is shaved so short he's virtually bald. Next scene when he's inside the factory its grown to a number 3. Am assuming he has a Girls' World style button to grow his hair when desired.

Not really cock-a-hoop to see Maria back. First time Ozzy's been seen since she left.

I do like Erica though Akire, and I like her scenes with Liz and Mary.

LineyReborn · 13/04/2016 14:29

Nick is starting to look like the contents of an ancient Egyptian mummy. The sort that come back to life. Which could be handy if he stays in Soap acting.
