CORRIE - The one where they finally bin Phelan?!

[Frillyhorseyknickers]

We all know that the writers read MN after all. Apparently it’s on at 8.30pm this eve?

Was that the same Gina?There was another Gina years ago, a pretty dark-haired barmaid.

I was roaring laughing at Eva standing by cab and everyone else 2 metres away because of bump

What do we know about steroids? Has he been taken ages? They all bore pants off me so I wouldn’t have been to busy day dreaming to notice. What where the bruises? Sex really?

Is it just me or is factory like third of the size now?

All those people hugging Eva didn’t wonder what the solid round lump was between them and her??

And Aidan isn’t going to be a bit suspicious when Torah and Peter bring home a new baby in 2 months just as Eva comes back without a baby??

She say it was adopted. Would just about pass given they set up other baby story months ago. Not sure how she is thinking can live back in tiny pub with baby and just crack on. Surely you have to leave it and give self distance. I’m putting down bets for Xmas story when it’s 6m old. It’s be in fire/emergency and all will come out. This is soap law!

But the actress is leaving anyway, isn't she, so the storyline will have to be resolved long before Christmas. I think she will end up keeping it.

How will it work with the paperwork though? Eva will be named as the mother on the birth certificate. Was Peter's sperm used in which case will he have the right to be named as the father?

Maybe the baby will be born with a buzz cut and be wearing a baby grow three sizes too small, so Aidan will know for sure that she is his.

Simon manages to be completely vile, with no redeeming features. Is he just going to get worse and worse until he's the next serial killer? True all that hugging of Eva and not even Leanne clocks the pregnancy.

clawdy No, Martin didn;t have a fling with barmaid Gina but Dev did- I think they were going to be married at one point. Martin definitely had a flilng with Sally's siter Gina, who was played by a different actrss back in the late 80s.

Why oh why are they giving Simon a storyline, like Craig the actor just can't handle it. They should be just in the background with no lines

Imagine finding out your best friends partner was using drugs and not telling her? So believable...

And yes, Simon might just be the most annoying character ever to grace the cobbles.

Simon was such a cute child as well. He's just vile now.

He was a sweet little boy, yes. It's a pity they had to turn him into a stereotypical sullen difficult teenager.

Ken did a bad day's work when he persuaded Peter to get custody of Simon over his rich and loving grandparents. Perhaps they can suddenly reappear and take Simon off.

How are Peter and Toyah supposedly paying for the "surrogate" (Eva's cottage)? Is Peter using Simon's inheritance from his mother for his own purposes yet again?

I'm sure Eva said that she will pretend to have lost her notes and give Toyah's name to the hospital she uses.

So Toyah's name will be on the birth certificate and such afterward.

How old is Robert? Is it really believable that he would be scouted as a professional boxer at his age and after just one fight?

I thought this was no spoilers?!

I didn’t know Eva was leaving the show.

My thoughts exactly.

I was wondering about the boxing scout, too. Robert is about 45 I think, slightly older than his ex wife Tracy. Unless there are veteran fights which bring in money for agents?

As if Carla would accept Robert's promise to quit steroids! She knows how addiction works.

I was annoyed about spoilers too. It limits the story options if someone maybe leaving.

Hadn’t thought about Birth certificate do thy ask for ID? But she need it to say the other ladies name right? You don’t gwt one until officially adopted?

I hate fucking spoilers

Surely spoilers are references to upcoming storylines? Stories about who is leaving a soap feature in so many papers and magazines, you can hardly avoid those, so talking about a character's exit is hardly a spoiler. Even if you don't buy them, they're on display in every shop.

It is still a spoiler. It doesn't matter if it is on the front page of the TV Mags, some of us don't see them / look at them. A spoiler is a spoiler. If someone is leaving then loads of plot possibilities are not possible.

Been watching loads of the 80s Corrie and I am always astonished at the number of vehicles on the Street. Where are they now?

When did they knock down the factory and build the houses? We're up to 1988 now I think and it's still there.

I don’t look as I pass magazines as I don’t want see “shock return of x” or “wedding Misery” or whatever latest thing is!
