We could get rid of a few that way.

Same here eddiemairs, he's bloody useless, his acting is atrocious.

Sarah is that desperate for a man that she'll go out with anyone, and believe everything she's told, you would think she'd have learnt her lesson from being with Callum.

Mel needs to go, why they are trusting her is beyond me.

Did Sean not have to apply for the job in the medical centre and have an interview, did he just rock up to the desk and say I'll start on Monday.

The man who plays Gary is ready to play Hamlet compared to the one who plays Will.

AncientAstronaut · 30/09/2017 10:23

What is with the long meaningful looks that Gary is giving to Nicola? especially in front of Sarah in the cafe, it is obvious he is going to cheat! Men!

That's a point. Where were Nicola and Gary when they had sex? Come to that where are each of them living?

What happened to Summer, and what was the point of the false homework story?

Again, I feel as if I've missed an episode. Wouldn't Liz have to give formal notice and her job to be advertised?

Stillwaitingforsummer · 30/09/2017 12:07

Aside from the content of corrie, I'm so fed up of that Vodafone advert in between every episode!

mrssunshinexxx · 01/10/2017 09:00

Is anyone else positively fed up with the Bethany/ Mel story. It's just all going to turn to shit for her again

ProfYaffle · 01/10/2017 09:06

Yes, I am. I think modern Corrie writers are trying to replicated the good old days when Corrie would do a good long lasting, slow burn story. Except now they just go in for circular and repetitive, thinking it's the same thing.

LineysRun · 01/10/2017 09:08

I've stopped watching recently because it's crap. And the Bethany story is rubbish.

Stillwaitingforsummer · 01/10/2017 10:35

I'm another one who thinks that I've missed episodes. Some things drag on while others are skimmed over!

eddiemairswife · 01/10/2017 10:51

Hasn't Nicola got a flat somewhere? Didn't Phelan help her with buying it? Why didn't the dinner for Summer and the sex with Gary take place there?

NoCryLilSoftSoft · 01/10/2017 11:10

What are the chances Nicola gets pregnant with the gurney one's baby? They always seem to have a pregnancy storyline going on somewhere. Toyah obviously isn't going to get joy with her surrogate otherwise she would have to smile at some point. That's never going to happen.

Stillwaitingforsummer · 01/10/2017 12:31

Did I miss when summer cut herself? Why didn't Nicola take her to hospital?

eddiemairswife · 01/10/2017 13:06

The Summer incident is a complete puzzle.

Although pregnancy tests are widely used in Coronation Street, no-one seems to be aware of contraception or the morning-after pill.

SumAndSubstance · 01/10/2017 14:26

The Summer incident is a complete puzzle.

I'm sure they cut some of the groundwork for it, but forgot that the aftermath therefore didn't make any sense. As someone else said, what was it all about anyway? What fake homework? And what was Phelan doing there to take her to hospital? Wasn't she supposed to be on her own with Nicola?
With regards Nicola's flat, wasn't her offer only accepted a week or so ago? I'm actually impressed that they haven't had her move into it yet, but yes, she must leave somewhere because she certainly doesn't live with Eileen (yet).
I liked the bit where Phelan told her there were two bottles of wine in the fridge, but she said not any more, implying presumably that she'd drunk them both all by herself, but seemed stone cold sober.

SumAndSubstance · 01/10/2017 14:27

must *live somewhere.

Iwantacampervan · 01/10/2017 14:30

So Moira was worrying about Liz being indiscreet and then she employs Sean!

Optimist1 · 01/10/2017 14:57

Yes, campervan - compared to Sean Liz was the utter soul of discretion! Smile

eddiemairswife · 01/10/2017 15:33

The receptionist job only seems to exist when there is some spare space in the storylines. Gail did it, but was sacked when she looked up someone's (Tina's?) records, then Deidre took over. But since then no-one of note. And what exactly does Moira do?

Akire · 01/10/2017 18:21

Totally confused about summer story too. Did they just want time to themselves? Or was she faking homework to stay up late or something. What kind of breadknofe can cut your hand? Even if you were drunk in charge babysitting she wasn't dying emegmcy, you would just walk to end of road get a taxi surely. You know where you sort of step mum works!

Guess she had pick of beds at Eileen's with no Todd or Sean or Jason.

Would thought segrogate would taken more getting to know than one meeting in back room of a pub. Or have I missed something?

thenightsky · 02/10/2017 19:43

Rita has made a miraculous recovery then...back behind the counter in The Kabin already.

Yet again I seem to have missed an episode Hmm

MusicToMyEars800 · 02/10/2017 19:53

I'm glad they haven't killed Bethany off, I did think for a minute then that they did... Mel is so deluded!

Akire · 02/10/2017 20:01

I thought the plan would be to Kill a girl and make It look like Bethany. Obviously still no idea then.

Not sure why they are crowd sourcing making hats. Surely they can afford to buy 20 metresof fabric and then set up a online shop. Bit early to start buying 5 sewing machines if they may not sell.

MusicToMyEars800 · 02/10/2017 20:31

I think Lara is the girl David and Shona tracked down and tried to get to give evidence against him.

MusicToMyEars800 · 02/10/2017 20:33

I really hope that Nathan gets sent down!
