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.

I think the discovery of Calum's body would probably have been more newsworthy than his actual demise, maybe just as a filler on a slow news day.

Dev and the bloody waxing.

Do Andy and Steph live in Jason's flat near the Kabin? That's two beds isn't it because Tina and Steph lived there.

Or am I mixing that up with the flat on the builders yard?

I think it's a bit of both I think they live in a two bed flat where Steph used to live with Tina above the builders yard. I seem to remember when Rob chucking her off the balcony that it was ridiculous that anybody would build a flat with a balcony overlooking a builders yard.

One of my mums favourite games is working out who lives in which flat.

I never remember where people live. There must be two bedrooms wherever they are because Michael stayed with them for ages before.
Just after he found out that Andy was not his son, and he could forgive him sponge off him and Steph but couldn't forgive Gail.

I didn't watch last night, might catch up later.

I didn't even think about that, aah bliss, sitting on the balcony, gazing over the builders yard...

The scene with Bethany and the girl bullies chanting "psycho, psycho" was typically pathetic and over the top. Where do they get their script writers from.

Anyone remember when Eileen was sharpwitted, clear of thought, strong amd capapble?

She seems to have been turned into a moron,
"Has the rent rise come from Jason?"
"Actually no, it was pats idea and im just dumb enough to not realise im being manipulated"

"All that ppison came from micheal" says pat,
"Actually Pat, it was you that threatened them with eviction, but im a bit too dim to realise it was you so ill just agree, might as well start giggling like an air head school girl, teeheee"

Its getting ridiculpus, i didnt think it could get more ridiculous, but its somehow managing it.

Corrie tonight at 8.30.

Damnit it Rachel, i was trying to forget when it was on.

Oops

Just caught up with latest episode I would love to see Leanne and nick back together I know that's very unlikely given the upcoming storyline with Leanne but stranger things have happened on the street.

Steph's flat was originally a one-bed flat when just Tina lived there - David stayed on the sofa for a few days until it got 'too crowded'. When Katie and Joseph moved in, it miraculously transformed into a 2-bed

Does anyone remember, did Sean first appear on the Street and move in with Eileen because he was going out with Todd? Just watching them last night I was trying to remember if they'd ever been a couple and how Sean had ever arrived in the first place.....

according to TV guide - it is on at 7.30 and 8.30 - aah deep joy

Sean and Todd have never been an item. Sean came into the show via Todd as Todd's first boyfriend was friends with Sean.

Sean admitted he loves Todd (I think Todd strung him along?)

Amy's feistiness has now become obnoxious and totally unrealistic. I keep wanting Tracy to give her a good slap and say "Now you've got something to moan about! "

Yes, I think Amy has become very nasty actually. Can't have been much happened between Mary and Dev, he still had his black boxer shorts on.

I think the writers go OTT with Amy. Hopefully this might improve with the new person in charge.

I don't think we are meant to believe anything happened between Dev and Mary, apart from (literally) sleeping together

Amy is like Kirk, I don't believe in her as a character, she's too cartoony. I know it's a soap, so some characters have to be heightened, but there's a limit.

Apart from Amy, I liked the Friday episodes. Todd and Tracey's scene where he gave the flowers was lovely and him and Billy have great chemistry, which is what Billy and Sean didn't.

No I think the only person who thinks something went on between dev and Mary is Dev.

When Robert was talking to Amy on the bench (is it Maxine's bench?) you could really see his new improved greying hair. His Lego head is no more.

Todd was a nice boy when he first appeared in Corrie. Then he returned and became a smirking evil villain. And now he's becoming a nice boy again!! Could this happen to Phelan......?

Almost afraid to say, in case I jinx it, but I think there are some very slight improvements in the most recent episodes.

I know it was totally silly, but I did enjoy the Mary/ Dev scenes. They are funny together.

For once, there was another dimension to Tracy, being grateful to Todd for preparing the flowers and bringing him and Billy together.
