I was thinking Adam and Jenny. She's had such a shit time and deserves a fit young bloke. Either him or Imran.

Oh dear god, that is awful... Jim is exploiting the death of his own baby??

Absolutely sick of the producers to do this.

southeastdweller · 12/09/2018 20:26

Corrie are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this appalling Katie story.

tinstar · 12/09/2018 20:35

I know I am over dramatic but can we petition to get this stupid disgusting story line dropped?

Good idea Year. It's appalling. I'd far rather watch Rita and Norris bickering or Roy talking about steam trains than this tosh.

MrsTommyBanks · 12/09/2018 20:44

Agree with the awfulness of the Jim Katie thing.
But am loving Maureen Lipman. I've been a fan for years.

MrsTommyBanks · 12/09/2018 20:46

Also the Imran, Leanne, Toyah love triangle will prob lead to a massive fight for Easter.

The Tyrone storyline is intriguing - just what a soap should do. Maureen Lipman is always good.

Just watching the first episode. You've got to love David & Gail!

I fear the Tyrone storyline is merely going to be an excuse for a visit to South Africa to coincide with Fizz's real life pregnancy and mat leave.

I don't know why they bother to write characters out on mat leave - you don't see some characters for months on end with no explanation.

Hahaha, loving the hospital radio playing The First Cut is the Deepest for someone who has just had an operation!

They've already done the Toyah creeping around behind Leanne's back with someone they've both hooked up with (Peter).

EachandEveryone · 12/09/2018 21:29

I love Maureen Lipman she must be in her ellement. Didnt her husband have something to do with Corrie in the early days, shes from my town.

The Katie story line is too stupid for words and rhe need to knock it on the head asap.

Is Bitcoin really worth that kind of money?

JustDanceAddict · 12/09/2018 21:34

Maureen is great, the Katie storyline is moronic.

Clawdy · 12/09/2018 21:54

They certainly won't drop the horrible storyline, it was filmed weeks ago. The actor playing Jim has already finished filming the story line.

tinstar · 12/09/2018 22:24

Interesting that Eileen is so suspicious from the off - Phelan practically had "murdering psychopath" tattooed on his forehead and she didn't notice.

Mc180768 · 12/09/2018 23:05

What a terrible story line. And her accent? It's dreadful.

IdahoJones · 12/09/2018 23:26

I turned over. Not watching this. I would wonder if Maureen Lipman knew she would sandwiched into such gratuitously offensive cobblers.

Redglitter · 13/09/2018 00:58

I thought the Hannah/Katie storyline was going to be her scamming them for some reason. Never saw Jims involvement coming.

ellenanora5 · 13/09/2018 01:32

Thanks Honeyroar thought it was.

I'm off to check am I right about her being in it before.

I've been confusing myself a lot lately.

cloudyweewee · 13/09/2018 06:25

Why are Ryan & Ali looking for the Gazza book? Did I miss something?

Original poster
Clionba · 13/09/2018 07:31

Ryan put his password in the back of the book. He has a lot of money in Bitcoin, £250k, but can't access it. He wrote it down in the book, so they're on the trail.
For a hospital doctor, Ali has a lot of time just to be bumming around.

OP posts:
tinstar · 13/09/2018 07:35

And how many people other than Ali would know off the top of their head that a whip coin bought for £50 would now be worth £250k? And why would they celebrate before checking their facts? Only in soap land ....

tinstar · 13/09/2018 07:36

I also think the Katie story would be slightly less ridiculous if Jim was being scammed as well.

KlutzyDraconequus · 13/09/2018 08:34

Why are Ryan & Ali looking for the Gazza book?

If I had too guess, and it is just a guess, I'm.going to say:
Some how Ryan convinces Ali to give him £10k for a stake in the bitcoins.
It'll be either someone Ryan knows and they won't give the book back for less than £10k or some other devious plan.. this, in turn, will have Ryan proudly declaring he outwitted the clever doctor and winning him the £10k bet and the dinner at the Bistro.
Ryan, only having £2k left, didnt lose it on a horse, he used that it to grease the palms of people that are helping him play the joke on Ali. Tims dad, the book owner etc.
Of course Ali won't find it at all funny and there will likely be an incident in the bistro, something thrown at Ryan and Ali storming off red faced.

Now if any of that happens on Friday, I'll eother be shocked that my psychic powers are improving or dismayed that Corrie is so predictable..

ajandjjmum · 13/09/2018 08:53

Wow Klutzy - amongst all the other drama, I'd forgotten the bet! If it doesn't happen, maybe you should offer your services to the writing team! Grin
