Corrie Thread - Things starting to improve? Or just wishful thinking? (No spoilers please)

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

Jason leaving has to help, he is more wooden than a clothes peg.

I wish Kym Marsh was properly leaving too - I feel they are taunting us with what could have been with all this cruise ship talk.

Can't believe Eileen referred to Phelan as the "man of my filthiest dreams" !!

Where can this story now?

why did Roy and Cathy schedule a meeting with their wedding planner in the cafe while they were serving customers?

What makes her think she's a wedding planner?!

Anyone noticed how much Tracey is enjoying living in a house full of men? Relatives or not, she seems to be in her element.

I was when Tracey referred to Simon's crush as 'fit'!!

She'll be 13!!

as michelle actually planned anyones wedding or have they all cancelled on her

i think bethany would of been looking after her little brother while sarah was in the pub

I cringe when Michelle bustles around with that 'wedding planner' folder

Same here. She made some reference last night to all her weddings, or something. I can't recall any wedding she planned actually going ahead. Ok, Tracy's almost did...
Nonsense. On the plus side she can't fold her arms - her main talent - while carrying the pink folder.

Tracey actually described Simon's crush as 'really hot' which is even more disturbing!

So what is Daniel's big secret. I also thought Peter was hiding something when he first came back. Adam is always checking his phone and was rifling through the draws in the house the other day

That was it! 'Really hot'! I thought it was very odd to describe a child like that!

Gutted that Phelan didn't disappear into the sunset as expected last night. Is he ever going to get found out, d'you think?

Just caught up. Is Phelan going to stick around and face the wrath of all the people who lost money or is he going to do a bunk with his five quid?

Well that's the million dollar question isn't it? I'm guessing he's going to at least attempt to pin the whole thing on Vinny and say he's as much a victim as everyone else.

I think he'll probably try and twist it all to be vinnys doing, claim he's been had as much as anyone. That's if he can get Todd on board with that and since they've lost all of Jason's money I can see Todd doing whatever it takes to cover their tracks.

I think he'll probably try and twist it all to be vinnys doing, claim he's been had as much as anyone

This is exactly what said would happen months ago when the flats bullocks all started. Some people like phelan, I think he just needs a top hat and moustache and he could be a panto villain, tying Eileen to the tracks and twirling his tache and laughing, creeping through the night,
"He's behind you!"
Etc

I don't suppose he's going anywhere anytime soon. Gawd!

I think it's better that he didn't go. Now he is left with nothing and hopefully will face the wrath of the Street. Although of course they will all have forgotten in a week or so that they paid him any money.

The people paying deposits, take Sarah for example, surely she would need to have checked to see if she could get a mortgage...

I thought the flat storyline would be his exit. If he's not buggering off then I might switch off. I can't stand his panto-baddie acting.

I was hoping he would leave, with Eileen having a dramatic scene where she sees what he is really like. Every time they snuggle together I have to look away, it's even worse than Michael and Gail.

I'm a bit confused. Are Phelan and Todd claiming they didn't know the flats were a scam? How could that be believed, when Phelan kept telling Eileen he was going to the site and the work was happening

I can understand why Phelan stayed in the short term (nowhere to go, no money) but once the police start looking into things he can't possibly have an explanation for the fact that there's been no construction, no supplies (apart from Eileen's tiles), can he? He and Vinnie were demonstrably working together.

Exactly, Optimist!

Eileen is going to beg him to come back isn't she?
