Oh dear what an user crock of shit corrie us now. I grew up watching it with my parents. I've had many breaks recently and keep watching bits hoping that it will get better. It's dire. They need to get rid of fizz , type, Anna, Kevin, Sophie, Michelle , learned, and please please please part phelan. He's got away with everything and he is loathed. His plots make no sense.

In the last 6 months we have seen David give 20k to anna. Bully give 1k to the Sean etc all (shona said they could keep it), Sarah lose 15k to the flat scam and not be bothered at all, leanne inherit 25k from nick and give it to her sister for ivf. Ffs. And the awful phelan plot. I wish he's kill Eileen and be done with it. She used to be a great character but I hate her and everyone else linked to pat.

I'm only watching bits of it now for adam Barlow. What a hottie!!!!

Me too!!

Did you see Aidan doing the Scottish accent mocking Adam last night? Grin

Anna thought Kevin had called SS but he says not and it did look genuine. Who else knew about Seb’s family? The twins are too young for school so it can’t have been a teacher.

MusicToMyEars800 · 24/10/2017 08:47

I'm just catching up now, I'm at the Social worker bit, Seb's mum gets on my nerves, I'm shouting at the tv for her to just accept the help!!

And how bloody ridiculous that Faye thinks Seb and Anna are having an affair Grin

Pat is getting on my nerves, I hope it is coming to an end now with this very far fetched, stupid storyline.

scrabbler3 · 24/10/2017 09:47

The Pat thing is absurd. It's a shame because the actor is very good.

I thought that the actors playing Seb and Abbie were really strong last night. I found myself rooting for them.

When Pat told Andy that Vinnie was responsible for Michael's death, I thought he said "George Michael's death". 😂 Still, it wouldn't be that much more far fetched.

Aidan's Scottish accent 😂

MusicToMyEars800 · 24/10/2017 09:55

The bit where the twins were taken into care was emotional, It's a shame Abby didn't just swallow her pride and let Anna take them and help.

NoCryLilSoftSoft · 24/10/2017 10:15

So what are the chances Anna fosters the twins?

MusicToMyEars800 · 24/10/2017 10:43

That's what I reckon will happen NoCry

eddiemairswife · 24/10/2017 11:04

What has Phelan done with Vinnie's mother? Surely even the worst care home would keep better tabs on their inmates than that one; there were no staff around at all last night.

JustDanceAddict · 24/10/2017 11:07

I did actually think last night that Adam is very good looking after all the talk on here. Prob cos he’s a bastard it’s put me off, but he is...

JustDanceAddict · 24/10/2017 11:09

Bakingnovice so true. I also grew up watching, when it was on twice a week and had decent plots!! Lord knows what my mum would make of it these days if she was still alive.

MusicToMyEars800 · 24/10/2017 11:17

She's probably still at the beach eddie Grin
Bloody ridiculous story!

honeyroar · 24/10/2017 11:29

Scrabbler I heard it as George Micheal too. I did a double take!

honeyroar · 24/10/2017 11:30

Oh - and if Seb wasn't old enough to look after them wouldn't he have been taken into care too?

ToEarlyForDecorations · 24/10/2017 11:31

So what are the chances Anna fosters the twins ?

Virtually nil, I hope.

Look how Fay turned out - Pregnant at 13 by the jail bird boyfriend who is not much older than her. That child given up for adoption.

Coming home at lunchtime in her school uniform to meet the boyfriend, Seb, for sex. Grim.

IMO Anna is a rubbish parent. Her parenting of Fay was and continues to be shockingly lax. (I don't like Anna anyway. She's cold. She's violent. Though not to Fay.)

Coronation Street is just awful atm. Even eye-candy Adam (Scottish werewolf) was looking shabby last night. Trim your beard man, and get your poise back.

The Phelan storyline is tedious and I resent all the other story lines that are dependent on it. When can Eileen get her personality back ?

Once again I ask: Where is Rita ? Did she have the operation ?

The last we saw of her she was in her hospital bed and the character played by Vic Reeves visited her with the paperwork regarding the sale of the flat over the Kabin.

Also, Simon has become a character in search of a storyline.

NoCryLilSoftSoft · 24/10/2017 11:33

Rita is off at the beach with Florence Grin

Powergower · 24/10/2017 11:58

Can I butt in and say I called adam Barlow a hottie when he first reappeared and was pooh poohed. He is the only reason I'm still watching.

I'm actually very sad that a lovely soap has become so so so terrible in the last decade or so. The plots are ridiculous and everything happens do fast with characters I mostly despise.

Eastie77 · 24/10/2017 12:20

This is going to sound terrible and a bit morbid but do you think the writers have 'back-up' or emergency stories in the event any of the older actors die suddenly in real life? The actor who plays Ken is 80 something? Rita and Emily must be quite close behind.

Obviously a sudden death can occur at any age but (and again this sounds bad) if it happens to a younger character I suppose they could be replaced whereas it would be impossible to bring in a new Rita or Ken after 50 odd years.

eddiemairswife · 24/10/2017 13:59

I expect they'll send them to Peru!

olliegarchy99 · 24/10/2017 15:51

thank you for the heads up about the ITV3 corrie classics. It is quite an eye-opener how far from its Northern roots and real characters it has strayed. I had a feeling that Gail had an affair with the Aussie (Ian) and there was query over Sara Lou's parentage - sad I can remember trivia like this Blush
I missed last night's (other things to do) but assume Andy is still in the cellar, Toyah is trying hard to be 'a landlady' at the rovers, and Elaine is still unable to see through Phelan - oh and Sinead is fighting off Daniel.

olliegarchy99 · 24/10/2017 16:17

just to add - Hilda and her words at Stan's grave made me well up Sad
Current corrie cannot do that for me.

Pastamancer · 24/10/2017 17:04

What year is the old corrie showing? Just wondering how far off the start of my beloved Steve it is

Akire · 24/10/2017 17:42

Expecting Emily to drop off a mountain or die saving someone to give her the saintly end off. Interesting. Now Norris and Mart are married if he dies she gets the house! Be funny if she and her son etc move in and Emily comes back to a house full.

woodhill · 24/10/2017 19:52

Where’s Sean, I thought he lived with Norris?

SmileSunshine · 24/10/2017 21:34

Maybe Phelan will kidnap Seb instead of Daniel or both of them since Seb saw the money and Daniel is so smug.

JustDanceAddict · 24/10/2017 21:51

Anne Kirkbride died quite suddenly didn’t she? They had to have Deidre die too.
I’m sure one actor who got sacked had to be rid of quickly, they probably have to rewrite some episodes I suppose.,
