Corrie - New Producer, New hope? No spoilers please

[HettySunshine]

Thought I'd start a new one as we're not far off and there'll be much to talk about this week, I I fear.

Nicola was bouncing around a couple of hours after a c section. Bring shot will be likewise taken in her stride. Maybe it's the Phelan blood that conveys them super powers.

Michelle will be bouncing off the walls by Monday's episode, as will Nicola. These writers need their heads testing - it says something about what the programme has become when every episode (pre-watershed) is preceded by a trigger warning!

I dint need to add anything. Hygge says it all perfectly!

Bit more I've caught up in do need to all about Sallys kitchen? When did that happen?

I know millimat I didn't know where they were at first! No skip, no kitchen fitters?

yawning sometimes when the programme finishes and they say "if you have been affected by the storyline.." we're not exactly sure which bit they're talking about, they've crammed that many issues into one half hour.

Precisely Hygge! Then they have to say "...by ANY of the storylines..." because there's so many!

Well, I've just caught up with all that. Obviously, yes, it was preposterous, but I did like the bit where Phelan was choosing a hostage - it was a bit like he had a list from us lot. "Is Fiz at this wedding? No? Erm, okay, ah, Michelle, she's on my list" I was shouting (not actually), "No, Pat, shoot Kate, shoot Kate!"

Yeah never heard that line " I need a hostage" before.

hygge your post was so funny and so accurate!

Your ‘worst bits’ post I mean.

There was only about 4 police wasn't there? !

4 cops and no CID despite a murder and a double shooting. Eileens house & the Bistro should have been sealed off as crime scenes. No sign of any forensics and Pats body removed straight away.

Not to mention suspects and witnesses wandering about Willy nilly

All totally realistic

I'm glad to see that Jack p shepard won the best actor award tonight.

The trouble with them winning best soap means there is no reason for them to change the formula!

Does anyone think that Lucy Fallon (Bethany) deserved to win best actress? I'm not a fan tbh.

No, crazycatgal she just had a high profile juicy storyline. I know that she's older than the character in real life, but she looked a lot older tonight!

Best soap!!!!!???? Thank goodness I don't watch any of the others then.

Well there's no point in me watching the soap awards now!

I was really annoyed that Kevin was just strolling round the street whilst Jack was inside. Gunshots, armed police and you've an eight year old and you don't think to go in your house and look after him.

It was really all a joke. Very daft

It was daft really. Coronation Street should stick to what it's good at. I'll forgive it this this time round.

The David Platt story got going though - that was good.

Yes, the Soap Awards just recognise the high profile story lines, and, with the exception of David Platt last night, the newer characters. Lucy Fallon isn't a better actor than the women who play Leanne or Eileen, for example (and Eva, who was also nominated, certainly isn't). I was amazed Corrie won best soap, having given up on it due to its dire storylines this year!

Did Shane Ward not win anything for the Aiden suicide story?

I don't think he did, although I didn't see all of it.
