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

Yes, I thought that about Toyah and Imran as well. Hopefully that will put Peter’s nose out of joint as Imran is a hunk, and Peter is a sleaze who probably stinks of fags. Go Toyah, it about time she got a decent man.

Am I the only one that doesn't like Imran, I think he's awful.

Why on earth won't Sean just admit he's been an awful gobshite and tell someone about his situation.

I'm not sure Tim believes Sally at all, but I do feel sorry for her, she's very gullible sometimes.

That was an odd scene between Imran and Toyah. I wondered if it was the beginning of a relationship. It's the first time I've seen her assertive. She never stood up to Peter. Imran would be a move up for her!

All Sean needs to do is tell someone and ask for help eg Liz, Rita, Eileen, anyone!

Yes it’s so irritating that Sean won’t tell anyone his situation and it does not ring true, he has been within a tight knit community for years and has lots of friends so rather than feeling sorry for him I get cross, just tell Eileen, Billy, Liz,anyone! They would all rally round and help, his situation is unlike so many homeless people who really do have nowhere or nobody to turn to. I hate this Sally storyline and hate that Tim is just paying lip service to her, disappointed as I thought he would have been a tower of strength for Sally.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 13/08/2018 22:05

Would love Toyah to get with Imran just to wipe the smirk of Peters face!

Honeyroar · 13/08/2018 22:22

I'm not an Imran fan either Ellenanora5.

I don't think Tim looked like he believed Sally either, which is irritating - most people initially believe their partners, even when they are cheating (something I've learned from Mumsnet!).

Suzie will turn up in 18 years to stake her claim on the factory.

Imran and Toyah would be even less believable than Peter and Toyah.

Suzie will marry Harry or Oliver (checks they're not related) and they could run the factory together.
Imran and Toyah is totally implausible.

Since when has plausibility been in the Corrie writers brief? Grin

Never! Grin but there are times when you want to at least suspend your disbelief!

Corrie these days... It's not so much Suspend disbelief, it's more 'Take it the back, shoot it, cut it up with a chain saw, bury it, wait for it to come back to life, chop it up with an axe, put it in a wood chipper and use the chippings to line a hamster cage'

Oliver and Suzie share a grandparent- Stella.

Oh, Cloudy, that's true. I'm very confused. I do hope they employ someone to draw up family trees otherwise it could all get very awkward.

Last night, when they were in the Bistro, I was thinking - will Imran and Alya get together? I could not work out the relationship for a good 10 mins, then remembered he's Rana's brother and Rana was/is married to the vanishing Zeedan, Alya's brother. But most likely he'll get together with Toyah.......

Could anyone on the street be single for 5 minutes. You know, like real life where we don’t all marry our neighbours twenty minutes after we split up from our husbands?

Ha ha SgtFredColon! they all have to pair off together like a country dance.
For the moment, Leanne is single......

The ink must have been still wet on Michelle and Steve’s divorce papers when she married Robert. And now Steve is engaged to Robert’s ex-wife!

Yes Oliver and Suzie are cousins. Happy to take a job at Corrie doing family trees! I could also object when they do a story that’s been done 8 times already (kidney transplants e.g.)

Kidney transplant. Wrongful arrest. Wrongful imprisonment. Paralysis which wears off. Concealment of baby's true paternity. Concealment of body. Sudden career change. Sudden purchase of business. Sudden leaving of /home /family /business with one small suitcase.

Miraculous heal thyself illnesses. Jack’s leg will probably grow back in a few weeks.

Wasn't Sinead paralysed in a minibus accident? Billy was paralysed at Christmas? Wasn't Michelle shot by Phelan? Rita had a brain tumour, aged 86?Max had ADHD?

Did Michelle and Robert get married in the end?

thenightsky · 14/08/2018 12:05

I don't think they did get married. Wasn't it all put on hold due to Aiden's death? My memory is getting as bad as the scriptwriters'.

thenightsky · 14/08/2018 12:06

And wasn't Peter also paralysed at one point too?

eddiemairswife · 14/08/2018 12:12

I haven't seen Ken for ages. Has the actor retired at last?
Another point regarding Norris. I know the actor is 'taking a break', but no-one refers to him, not even Mary.
Where are Angie and wooden Jude living?
