I recognised the pyramid selling chap too. And Jamie's dad. And Sister of Paediatrics who had a row with Martin.

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 26/11/2019 20:52

There's an actual real-life company nowadays called Envirosphere, selling the same sort of stuff!

I wonder if they know about this storyline Shock

Bluerussian · 27/11/2019 06:12

The actor who played Ronnie Cooper is called Matthew Marsh. Name means nothing to me but MMarsh is a familiar face, one of those actors you often see in things but don't necessary know their name.

x2boys · 27/11/2019 06:28

The paediatric Sister looked familiar to me too , I think she's played a nurse in something else ,more long standing role ,may be Casualty/Holby City or Doctors ?

Smelly50 · 27/11/2019 08:29

Yes I got it wrong. Jamie's dad was in bad girls . Pyramid chap has been in lots of things midsummer murder, the coroner. The nurse has been in wallander law and order uk amongst other things

HeIenaDove · 29/11/2019 16:22

If you mean the Sister Martin was shouting at she played Delbert Wilkins girlfriend in The Lenny Henry Show in the 80s and Rons wife Stella in the earlier episodes of Goodnight Sweetheart in the 90s.

thenightsky · 29/11/2019 18:46

Stella!!! That's it. I was watching Goodnight Sweetheart repeats earlier this week on Forces TV. I knew I'd seen her recently.

HeIenaDove · 29/11/2019 19:02

I love Forces TV Smile

Funny seeing Norris and Emily’s first meeting. They became such great friends.

I was thinking that Denise Welch must be imminent as Natalie. Pretty sure that was mid-1990s.

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 30/11/2019 07:46

Ooh, can't wait for Natalie Horrocks to rock up!

I always thought she was dead glamorous, swishing into the street in her sleek BMW.

Just a shame it started the slow disintegration of Kevin and Sally's (almost) perfect marriage ☹

Redglitter · 01/12/2019 05:12

Thankfully theres a while to go before Denise Welsh appears. Its currently early 1994 she doesnt appear til Summer 1997

SapatSea · 01/12/2019 10:19

I actually find Kevin and Sally quite annoying. I don't understand their money issues. They bought Hilda Ogden's house at a knockdown price (about £7kiirc) and got thir mates to help refurb it in return for a few cans. Curly bought Rita's house a few years later and paid £28k and the Platt's paid about £21k for their pad. When S&K were having trouble paying the mrtgage her mum gave her several thousand from the dad's life insurance which would have near enough covered their mortgage.They both work and now Sally blubs a bit and Rita gives them five thou. Sally never seems satisfied and Kev is just volatile and shouty.

SapatSea · 01/12/2019 10:20

Poor Percy how is he going to extricate from Maud's clutches?

x2boys · 01/12/2019 11:48

Yeah I don't understand the whole Kevin and Sally and Rita money Buissness ,she hardly knows them they were not exactly close, she made a big deal of only giving Jenny ( who I know was being devious) £1,000 and Jenny was like a daughter to her yet gives Kevin and Sally £5,000 for no real reasonConfused

SupersonicGerm · 02/12/2019 08:39

Hating the Norris and Derek storyline, so tedious, thank god for fast forward!

SapatSea · 02/12/2019 09:06

I agree Supersonic. I think the slide has definitely started. The mid 80's ones were better and more gripping IMHO. Where is Phyllis? was the actress ill at this time as Phyllis would be fighting tooth and nail to keep Maud Grimes away from Percy, helping in the cafe when Gail is with Sarah and advising Des on Raquel.

x2boys · 02/12/2019 09:18

I read somewhere that the actress who played Phyllis had a break of nine months in 1994 not sure why exactly ?Maybe ill health ,I haden t ,realised that Fiona ,s character didn't really have a big part for a while ,she's been in it for over a year ( in their time) and we don't see much of her did they slowely build up.her character ?

SapatSea · 02/12/2019 14:13

I think that once Fiona gets with Steve and the salon becomes a definite fixture on t'street she becomes more of a regular.

ConfCall · 02/12/2019 14:19

Yes, I’m missing Phyllis in the Maud/Percy storyline. Would have added a bit of spice!

I ageee that the Norris MLM story is dull although he became a valuable character later I think. There’s a clip doing the rounds currently on Twitter of him, Blanche, Sally and Jack letting themselves into Rita’s flat because they think she’s dead! Lots of retweets with “when CS was good” comments.

justthecat · 05/12/2019 15:53

Don is sooo creepy

x2boys · 05/12/2019 17:37

He is @justthecat ,the actor who played Bernard the Vicar is a terrible actor.

justthecat · 05/12/2019 18:16

All I could focus on when Bernard was breaking the engagement was his comb over 😱

thenightsky · 05/12/2019 20:54

I don't understand why Denise snubbed Ken after the barn dance. I know she was rattled by having Don turn up in the taxi, but it wasn't Ken's fault.

justthecat · 05/12/2019 21:12

Any sane woman would run away from ken Barlow

HeIenaDove · 06/12/2019 16:52

Curly and Des are both arseholes.
