I'm so enjoying revisiting this - Lisa Duckworth getting run over is one of my earliest TV memories!

It seems weird to me that no one appears to use a buggy - they just haul the kids around in their arms everywhere!

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 24/07/2019 09:45

And yes, Mark and Nicky are both appallingly wooden.

That fun pub was very typically early 90,s I remember those bottles of lager with bits of lemon in them!😂She's a proper little Madam ,Tracy Barlow, do you think those original actors are getting paid again for being back on TV ?

x2boys · 25/07/2019 20:38

I do think Maggie's being very selfish about Mike ,seeing Mark ,first of she stop s him having anything to do with him for years, tells Mark another Mans his Dad and when they finally do meet wants it all on her terms,and then let's her new boyfriend who she,s been seeing for all of five minutes who. just happens to hate Mike tell her her that she shouldn't let Mike see Mark ,no consideration for what Mark wants at all.

I briefly saw a big poster for the Punt and Dennis "milky milky" tour today on the street.
It brought back such fond memories of a more innocent and simple time. Oh to be 15 again!

Lisa Duckworth is due to get run over next week. I think 90s Tracey is good in her part. She easily stands out amongst the other awkwardly bad Coronation Street child actors.

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 26/07/2019 08:40

I'm a bit baffled by the whole thing with Doug's cheque.

RavenclawWriter · 26/07/2019 12:20

I had to laugh when Sally lectured Kevin that she'd cut off his 'family allowance' if he fathered a secret child!

x2boys · 26/07/2019 14:59

Yeah 90,s Tracy does a good petulant teenager! I used to Frequent the same Pubs and Clubs as the actress who plays 90,s Tracy she looked as exactly the same Irl as she did on screen .

x2boys · 26/07/2019 15:00

I mean we went to the same Pubs and Clubs in the mid 90,s!

AuntyMarysBigRedPants · 26/07/2019 15:25

My God , did you see the size of the heels on Mike's bowling shoes !

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 27/07/2019 09:27

I'm quite fascinated by Kev's 'family allowance', in those tight jeans!

It has a big enough on-screen presence to deserve its own listing in the cast credits.

DaveCoachesgavemetheclap · 27/07/2019 15:39

Kevin certainly liked the 'sprayed-on' look Shock

justthecat · 27/07/2019 16:08

Has Carmel gone for good?

x2boys · 27/07/2019 17:01

No she will be back in a couple of weeks for a final show down....

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 27/07/2019 17:32

If it wasn't down to Caramel, why did Gail and Martin split up eventually?

What else happened?

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 27/07/2019 17:52

I meant Carmel - blasted predictive text! Angry

Kannet · 27/07/2019 18:17

Didn't Martin cheat with the 16 year old neighbour

OP posts:
x2boys · 27/07/2019 18:30

He had an affair with another Nurse ,but not for a few years yet, ,and yes he did have a thing with a 16 yr old neighbour but it was after Gail and Martin split up.

justthecat · 29/07/2019 15:20

Ashley from Emmerdale has just killed Lisa 😱

HelenaDove · 29/07/2019 16:44

I couldnt fucking stand Veras "Terry can do no wrong" attitude.

x2boys · 29/07/2019 16:48

Yeah Vera,s being absolutely vile isn't she ,seriously what do Deirdre and Tracy see in Dougie ? He's hardly a catchConfused

HelenaDove · 29/07/2019 16:59

The 90s was when i used to buy Woman magazine and Womans Own regularly This was when they would have huge articles about soap storylines and always pics of soap stars on the cover.

They are just celebrity/reality TV rags now.

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 29/07/2019 22:10

Just caught up with last weeks episodes.

Why did Maggie bring home a big bag of dog food?

There's been no mention of having a dog - and who looks after it while she and Mark are both out of the house all day?

x2boys · 29/07/2019 23:08

Yeah I noticed the dog food ,I didn't think to deeply about it ,but yes now you mention it there's no sight of one ,mine would be all over a new person like ken and Mike so her dog must be very quiet and well behaved !
