Corrie Thread - the best (of the worst!) NO SPOILERS PLEASE!!

[yawning801]

Good God... how did they win best soap? The best soap is Molten Brown. Fact. (Lime and Patchouli, specifically!) What with dozy Rosie, booed Jude and airy-fairy Rosemary... think we'll all be reaching for the remote control by the time Jude has emerged from his kennel!

So at least five, possibly six bedrooms upstairs in the Rovers but not as many as Eileen's, which seems to be bigger than the Tardis.

I think the moving walls depend on the story. On occasion people have had to sleep on the sofa. When Liz had the pub a few years back, Steve and Michelle lived there, Amy had a room and Liam was a lodger - so 4 bedrooms I suppose. When Bet and Alec had the pub they seemed to just have one bedroom and a spare guest room.

The kitchen is also an issue Bet and Alec talk about "the other kitchen" now and again (assume a commercial kitchen) and I remember Michelle mentioning one but we only ever see the silly alcove one and once saw Sean take hotpots out of the tiny fridge there and check dates (not very hygienic). Toyah and Peter seem to have given up the pretence that food is produced at all in the pub.

I think Steve and Liz will find the money from somewhere and buy back the pub, I hope they do, and give Moira a job Peter and Toyah are not pub landlords.

Yes I'm hoping my Steve will get his pub back.

Steve, Liz and Moira in the Rovers!! Dream Team !!

Peter and Steve need to swap their shares in the pub/cab office, and Liz and Toyah need to swap jobs, then all will be well. (And Moira can pop into the pub every day to bitch to Liz about Toyah's moany face).

Any man that works at the rovers has to wear the obligatory tea towel over his shoulder, i suppose to make them look busy.

Jack Duckworth was too much of a man to wear the tea towel- he went for a full blown apron.

Yes to Steve, Liz and Moira in the pub! Hope the Corrie team are reading this thread.

Thanks keepondreaming

Oh, I remember when Bet&Alec owned the pub, they had to pay £££ to upgrade the kitchen to allow them to serve food (Alec Gilrpy nearly chocked on his ciggy )

The pub must be massive upstairs though- the whole footprint of the bar itself , the lounge in downstairs , the pub loos are downstairs, so if upstairs has the same area they could easily have 5 + bedrooms?

Sophie’s a bit bossy isn’t she!

Where's her clipboard?

Peter and Toyah have to be the worst landlords of the Rovers ever. No banter with the regulars., no involvement, Toyah has as much charisma as a wet dishcloth......and why in the name of goodness would an alcoholic choose to work in a pub. Get Liz and Steve back, their comedy scenes were brilliant.

Moira was in Unforgotten series 2 last night, playing a pathologist.

So is that money that Flora inherited the money Vinny scammed off everyone on the street.

I've not watched tonight's (if it's been on) but why don't seb and his mum just rent Eileens house?

Sgt that's what I thought. Surely the police would be involved.

Well considering detective Daniel did all that research you’d think he’d have copped on but he didn’t do any ‘suspicious face to camera’ acting.

millimat because that would make far too much sense for Corrie.

Sgt I completely forgot that. I think that's the problem with doing so many dramatic stories, the writers can't keep up with themselves

Also Flora was deemed to be unfit to live on her own so was in a nursing home? She seems pretty with it these days?

Yes, Flora seemed to have improved from living in the nursing home to now being quite capable and independent.
That discovery of Kayla's notebook was like something from The Famous Five! "I must get Bethany" "Craig is on my side"!! Laughable.

Flora has had a complete personality change.She was a dithering and deluded old lady, but is now apparently a wise, kind grandmother character, giving advice to a beaming Daniel and Sinead !!
