Corrie Thread - I've seen lace with fewer holes than the current plots - NO SPOILERS PLEASE

Surely Phelan will have to get his comeuppance by Christmas?

Mind you, I hope Anna gets sent to prison too.

Is it legal for a business' cctv to overlook someone's back garden?

I asked that too when it came up. Me and my dad argued. I said it wasn’t legal, he said it was. He said CCTV is no use if it doesn’t show outside the perimeter of the property because you need to see where criminals have run off to

I agree the "racists" are so, so unsubtle - you could just record them on your phone and report them to the police. I don't think they would be such bigwigs in a multicultural industry like the rag trade with those foul attitudes.

Is Leanne on maternity leave from the bistro or has she left?

Those bigots were weird. Usually, those sorts of racists (educated, smart, good jobs) are from the "I'm not racist, but" camp rather than the 1970s throwback camp. It was too unsubtle for me, I'd have preferred more nuance. Was fuming for Alya and Luke though.

Agree. They were really beating us around the head with the racism when we’re quite capable of understanding subtle racism which is generally what happens nowadays in professional situations. (Although did anyone hear about that man who was paid almost £300k for being called a gypsy and asked if he’d left his horse and cart at home! )

So I've just spent five minutes and burnt my finger trying to light a candle with aligner - but ruby can use it to torch a trampoline?

I thought Daniel was just lying to thicko Chesney about the CCTV? And Thicko was too dim to realise there was no CCTV coverage?

Yeah I think we have to assume he was just bullshitting.

Yes he was lying, Peter told him it covered the alleyway but you could see it doesn't go into gardens.

Leanne must have left the bistro as Michelle has her job.

Isn't Leanne still on maternity leave? She's going to need money, having lost £25,000. Unless she goes on benefits, which no-one in Corrie seems to do.

No doubt she'll still be breakfasting in the cafe and drinking in the bistro, along with the other "paupers".

And doing her weekly shop at Dev's.

Oh now Seb's doing Eileen's shopping at Dev's.

I think we need to see a lot more of Luke's lawyer.

Didn’t we already have the kidney storyline with ourTracey? Weird.

Is Luke's lawyer Imran, Rana's brother?
Nice to hear Emily mentioned.

Is that the same mill Phelan was pretending to renovate? Is it where the bodies are?

I think we need to see a lot more of Luke's lawyer.

Agreed!

I was confused about the whole mill thing. Is that where pat was at the end? I was half watching so I missed what was said about it.

Oh yes, Ann - that mill?

We must be right. It must surely be time for Phelan to get caught?

Who brought up the mill this evening? And why dis phelan go to it tonight?

Oh.. its THAT mill? I wondered why Phelan was doing his 'plotting' face at the end.

I think the net is closing on Phelan. Circumstances/plotlines are closing:

A. Gary & Seb becoming mates
B. Gary & Seb going to work at THAT mill
C. Sophie finding Andy's little house thingy in the takeaway menu drawer
D. Luke spotting Andy's little house thingy on Eileen's desk
E. Phelan throwing Seb out and getting very angry with him that Eileen didn't like

What else points to it?

F. The Phelan storyline has been dragged out for so long it has to end sooner than later - please!

I have seen reports that the net is closing on Phelan thanks to Seb.

Only in online chatter - no official spoilers.
