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!

Why do they dick about with their most popular shows schedule instead of scheduling around it? Seems bonkers.

I'm sure that announcer just called it a 'Meditation' session... Lol.
I was expecting mediation.. not sitting cross legged on the floor.. Grin

Poor Jenny

Johnny is being so awful to her

thenightsky · 16/07/2018 20:00

Oooh Jenny. LTB.

zukiecat · 16/07/2018 20:02

Poor Jenny is not having a good time in either Classic or Current Corrie just now

Alan Bradley's just turned up to threaten Rita again

redshoeblueshoe · 16/07/2018 20:03

Johnny is being a total wanker.

Funny he forgot to mention he had a daughter who he didn't bother with for over 30 years.
And the fact he has MS
And the fact he got someone to steal the fake birth certificate

Yes zukie I really felt for Jenny

Clionba · 16/07/2018 20:04

The actress playing Jenny is excellent. She's in so much pain and putting up with so much abuse! Go back to live with Rita!

blackbunny · 16/07/2018 20:04

Johnny seriously needs professional help,such as bereavement counselling. He's being such a bastard towards Jenny, she's shown him nothing but endless patience and compassion. I don't see a future for them unless he can start coping with his loss.
In other news,didn't Sally run a hardware shop once? That was obviously a resounding success!

zukiecat · 16/07/2018 20:12

Wouldn't someone have something to say how Johnny had looked at confidential papers on Adam's desk?

I forgot about he hadn't bothered about Carla for 30 odd years

I get that he's hurting, but he needs proper grief counselling

redshoeblueshoe · 16/07/2018 20:15

I get he's grieving, but when he went for Jenny he didn't even apologise,
and of course she doesn't know he's busy shagging Liz Sad

zukiecat · 16/07/2018 20:24

Oh yes redshoe

He's not too busy grieving to shag Liz!

Hygge · 16/07/2018 20:51

Nobody brought up the fact that he made Aidan homeless either.

eddiemairswife · 16/07/2018 21:02

It was so silly how everyone started wanting items of hardware.

thenightsky · 16/07/2018 21:41

I'm admiring Liz's sensible talk to Johnny. Funny how's he's not raising his fist to her when she talks the truth to him.

coolncalm · 16/07/2018 22:03

Yes Liz was great tonight, her hearts in the right place.

Clawdy · 16/07/2018 22:44

Johnny's gone from being a pleasant, amiable dad figure, to a hateful aggressive man. I really want Jenny to leave him and get some revenge!

thenightsky · 16/07/2018 22:54

yes. Jenny should take him to the cleaners. Abusive arse.

Honeyroar · 16/07/2018 22:58

Johnny is horrible at the moment. I'm actually wanting Jenny to leave. And where were the three hags when they came back from the hearing? They'd all driven him there.

Johnny also pushed Aiden to stay with Eva when he was having cold feet over Maria, which led to the affair continuing, the broken wedding and all that followed. He played a big part in fucking up Aiden.

You'd like to think that the mediator would see the nasty, unhinged, angry side to Johnny during their meeting. Eva, on the other hand, came across well.

What happened at the end of the episode? Did Toyah take Suzy?

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 16/07/2018 23:05

I cannot bear Johnny now, his aggressive, abusive behaviour towards Jenny is awful, I was glad she stood her ground tonight when he was going to punch her in the face, however I wonder if this is now going to move into a domestic abuse story line as Johnny was not even remotely sorry or ashamed of his behaviour.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 16/07/2018 23:09

I agree honeyroar re the 3 hags, they are like a nasty witches coven, find it hard to believe that all three of them would happily take Eva’s baby off her and think it would be better of being brought up by an elderly man with MS.

redshoeblueshoe · 16/07/2018 23:15

Also why has there been no mention of an inquest for Aiden ?
Johnny bought up the fact that she had lied about being pregnant before, whilst very conveniently forgot to mention he had an affair with Maria.

redshoeblueshoe · 16/07/2018 23:16

Aiden obviously

Honeyroar · 16/07/2018 23:19

The only thing he didn't mention was the thing that actually happened - the factory burning down.

Eastie77 · 17/07/2018 10:17

Can't believe Johnny raised his fist to Jenny. Seems completely out of character. Surely any normal woman would have left by now. He reached a new low when he mocked her dead son and blamed her mental illness on him losing Susie - there can't be any coming back from that.

Mc180768 · 17/07/2018 10:34

Awful behaviour from Johnny towards Jenny.

Also, the mediator was utterly useless. She hardly calmed the situation down. Allowed Johnny to speak yet allowed him to interject while Eva was speaking.

Own your behaviour, Johnny.
