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!

Looks like Johnny's going to take up residence in Weatherfield Hospital's private suite.

Johnny is an absolute bastard. Can't believe either of them want him.

Jonny and the MS storyline is really poorly done and giving such a false impression of it

Poor Jenny. Does Johnny want to be with her really, or is he just angry with Liz?

I reckon he's just angry with Liz, Jenny should cut her losses and leave him, I presume eventually he'll leave her anyway for Liz.

I wonder what mayhem Gemma will cause at the pub, I hope her and Henry bring a bit of fun to the show

Steve is annoying me with whole wedding thing with Tracy, just tell her for gods sake.

Maybe Adam is doing their legal work at mates rates?

Really good acting tonight.

Does Henry seem sincere though? He cringes when she talks.

I think Henry really does like Gemma but there is no way he has told his parents about her, and I bet he is still engaged to Cressida.

No, there's something dodgy with Henry. And too much of Gemma proving he's for real/telling people off for not having faith. Something's going to happen.

i'm so bored of gemma. she supposed to be at least 26/27 and looks /acts like a stroppy 16 year old.
amy seems more grown up than gemma

delores - I agree
I think she is supposed to be 'funny' but she is just irritating. Being silly and stroppy is not funny it is just infantile.

That's what I thought Clionba

I think he's just hitting out at Liz through anger

I don't think he'll go to prison, his lawyer will cite mitigating circumstances, and Johnny will think it will look better if he's in a happy, stable" marriage, as opposed to being a nasty, cheating scumbag

If they want someone funny in the Rovers they should bring Liz back. The scenes with her and Steve are often hilarious, Liz has far better acting skills than Gemma has too.

There is no way that someone like Henry would choose to be with Gemma. He'd settle with someone educated, attractive and cultured. He must be up to something.

I enjoyed the dialogue between Johnny and Liz and between Johnny and Jenny. That felt like "old" Corrie, how it should be...character driven. Rita's closeness to Jenny was lovely too.

I think that Tracy and Abby could be an interesting friendship pairing.

The actress who plays Kayla is very good.

All the ones just mentioned are very good actors. Kayla sounds so much like Michelle Keegan. I reckon she will go far as well.

This could be the moment that Gemma grows up a bit, if they don't spoil it with more nonsense from Henry.

They could have two characters who work really well together, which both of them developing as people, if they don't spoil it with yet another stupid storyline.

Johnny and his sour face are annoying me now. He's angry and Liz and punishing her, but he's also clever enough to know he needs Jenny right now. He admitted it before when he thought he had a chance at custody. Now he needs her to keep him out of prison.

EachabdEveryone

I have to mute Kayla's scenes, I couldn't stand Michelle Keegan's voice, and Kayla sounds far too much like her!

Mind you, Tina irritated me so much, I was so happy Rob did her in

Yes i fast forward her scenes because shes so wicked i cant stand it!

Kayla’s Mouth irritates me. Are her lips naturally that bubbly or has she had them done? They look too big and she can’t keep control of them when she is talking.

I don't like Kayla because she's like a pantomime villain with her secret smirking and eyebrow wiggling when she thinks she's got one over on somebody.

And that book with her notes was like something out of the Famous Five, and she sits there in front of the prison guards doing her speech about "They think they've gotten away with it but I'm going to bring them down mwah-hahaha!"

She's annoying, and I just don't care about Craig or Bethany enough to be bothered by her pointless 'revenge' against them.

Kayla's mouth is very irritating and I find myself distracted by it in her scenes. I agree that the notebook was ridiculous, as if anyone would do that! But it's also another Corrie pointless scene, because Craig and Bethany still pretty much trust her. I'm also put off by the fact that Bethany looks mid thirties, at least as old as her mum!

Ches is awful, just a sad ginger 6 year old. Fizz is equally awful....that croaky voice thing.
Sinaed and little Simon who isnt little anymore have the same Bury (?) accent.
Kens looking his age.
Rita same.
Gemma is overdoing it.

Ive just seen Peter Barlow RL.

Lucky you

I think Johnny must be a good actor because I really believed he had come to his senses and realized that Jenny has been wonderful to him. I could be just gullible though. I like Gemma, and her and Henry could work if it's written well. I won't hold out too much hope though. And surely Gemma will employ Liz to help her run the pub.

Are the Battersbys all leaving then? I hope so!
