Hi everyone, the last thread was nearly full. Is Imran so short of work he can take on a case at 2 mins notice?

It was all crap. The dialogue was awful. Adam is lovely. Give that man a decent story line before the actor ups and leaves. Crying over the photo was a nice touch. Daniel is a rotter pulling the wedding at the same time as Tracey's nonsense. It was like a very bad sitcom.

Tracey looked nicer the last time she married Steve, when Becky dropped the truth bomb then fecked off on a plane to Barbados.

I hate what they are doing with Sinead. She's just not allowed to be happy.

Yes that was awful of Daniel, it wasn't even a real wedding.

And who would think anyone would appreciate a surprise 'wedding'?!

It's just so dire at the moment. But I do think one thing Corrie does well is the funny one-liners from people like Mary, Steve and Tim, I even catch DH - who hates Corrie - chuckling at some of them.

I don't understand why key members of Tracey's family dropped her to attend Daniels (non) wedding without a second thought. Hers was the 'real' wedding and Ken should have given her away. Ken should have told Daniel not to be so childish and to arrange a different day. Or say 'sorry, I'm booked up on that date'. Also, what was Beth thinking? Nobody would walk away from being MOH to their very best friend at the last hour would they? Bloody nonsense.

Yes Daniel was an absolute arse to arrange their whatever it was marriage on the same day as the wedding that Tracey has been planning and stressing over for months. Adam is lovely, lots more of him please.

As if Ken would not be at Tracy 's wedding! He would have walked her down the aisle, then perhaps nipped round to Daniel 's ill-planned ceremony. And where was Steve's twin brother?

The whole thing of Andy not coming over to meet his long-dead sister is remarkable in itself. For the whole family to be together at Steve's wedding is what any family would do - dis-functional or not!

On another note, anyone seen that Jim is in a play at the moment, and they had to stop the performance as he had a funny turn? Rebus?

It’s like a really bad Carry On Film at the moment, ridiculous story with Daniel and Sinead wedding with Kirk really stupid!

Saw he was in a Rebus play, didn't know about the "turn" though.

And I am sure the actor who played Andy would have loved to return, even for one episode. He doesn't do much now. They could have had him discovering the truth about Hannah!

Odd casting for Rebus who is Scottish!

Who wants a surprise wedding when you're coming back from the dentist (as far as he knew) with what looked like bits of bog roll hung in the trees and right next to the tram stop!

Why haven't they just given Andy a new head?

Clawdy · 09/10/2018 19:49

Or even better, kept the old one!

Andy has been out of it for so long that some viewers have never seen him. If Nick returned with a new head a few years ago, then surely Andy can do the same.

I never understood why they didn't just give Todd a new head. It would have saved us from some utterly ridiculous storylines where they twisted and wriggled trying to write him out.

Did Tracey get married in the end? I haven't seen the most recent one.

I don't care what anyone says, I like Tracey, I feel quite sorry for her that she's always loved Steve but she's always been his fall back.

Corrie is so shit at the moment, they do have a few good characters but too many drippy hangers on.

They did get married. They're actually a good couple and I kind of feel sorry for Tracy. She also really missed her mum on her wedding day.

They are quite a good couple. What a shame that for once, they could have written it as a happy occasion, and ended with the Special Dance! Instead it's the usual revelations and tears and vows of revenge.......Angry

I’ve said this before but Steve and Tracey have the makings of a new Jack and Vera, and Amy I’m sure could give Terry a run for his money when she’s an adult! Come on Corrie scriptwriters, expand your minds, just a little bit....

Honeyroar · 09/10/2018 23:33

Yes I like Tracey and Steve, and yes how hysterical it would've been to see that dance. I felt sorry for Tracey too. She wants to be loved deep down, and she has loved Steve for so long, but he's never been as keen. She works well with Mary too, Mary softens her a bit.

Although Tracey is painted as the Corrie villain and I know she has done some grim things, if you are her friend or family she will literally defend you to the death! I know she can be pretty horrible to her family as well but she will always have their back and I don’t think her family appreciate that side of her they just see the bad. Deep down Tracey just wants to be loved.

Another talking at cross purposes plot device leading to oops-the -secrets-out. Does no one engage their brain first. Most of the street must have done at least one Grin

Tracey has grown on me. They used to give her one liners that were far too long to be off the cuff, but that seems to have stopped. Or it could be that everyone else is so god awful.
