*** New Corrie Thread (No Spoilers... or I'll spit on your turkey)***

[MonkeyToesOfDoom]

Christmas Day...

Merry Christmas Corrie Fans...
And those who watch through habit.

Rita's in the floor, Derek's in a bind, Gemma's had babies and is going out her mind.
Nick is grimacing nicely, and Sarah's forgot the plot.
And we're all just gathering around and hoping Dev gets shot.

Bertie has given Maria the measles, hasn't he? So what will happen when Maria finds out??

Yes I think that’s the way the plots going. Daniel’s getting another guilt trip.

Could you contract measles from a two second cuddle with a baby? Or had she had previously had contact in an episode I missed?

Maria will weep a lot, Gary will threaten Daniel, beat him up, possibly murder him. He is a bad lot, stay out of the ginnel Daniel. I wish someone would murder Gary, Daniel is sweet.

Could Maria have given Bertie measles?

I think when she cuddled him, she said he felt hot.

Yes she did Clawdy, I saw that bit. Would that be enough?

I guess in Corrie, it would be enough!

They can't have a spin off, Aggie might get confused and think she's Mrs Tenbe

And God only knows what would happen to her accent then! Has the Tracey/ Paula lesbian fling been resolved?

It must be great to live in a soap. All your problems are resolved very quickly or just magically go away!

Oh i don't know.. never know when you'll be blackmailed, cheated on, surprise child found, shot by accident, murdered etc.
I wouldn't mind being an extra in the background mind, sipping ale in the Rovers and watching everything.

They don't have many extras now. I caught a glimpse of Classic Corrie earlier this week, and was surprised how much was going on in the background of a cafe scene; it was so realistic, whereas nowadays extra characters are only there there to have a row, or to overhear something they shouldn't.

Has the Tracey/ Paula lesbian fling been resolved?

Good question! The last time I saw Tracey was when her and Steve were in a therapy session and had somehow trashed the room off screen.

They don't have many extras now
That's true, the Rovers is rarely busy these days. Everyone's gone to the Wetherspoon's.

What happened to Eccles, did he die ?

Maybe a vet spinoff would be good? With a handsome vet like our local locum (works Wednesdays, dogs with lady owners snaffle his appointments). We only see Cerebrus now, I don't know who is minding David the dog, Eccles must be elderly as he was around with Blanche I think, Steve has forgotten he has a dog but there was scope for issues with the kitten who has vanished.

All this talk of spinoffs, creating a 'Wetherfield Extended Universe' , can we get at least one spinoff where they cast actors that can act?

Don't forget Peanut, Beth's cute sausage dog ( can't spell daschund (?) )

Surely its far more likely that Maria gave Bertie the measles? She would have been in far more contact with a variety of people??
Why is everyone - Daniel, Bethany- assuming Bertie gave it to Maria?

Because Bertie was already hot when maria cuddled him.

Where did that torrential rain come from all of a sudden?!

A bucket!

Yes I expect there will be a twist and Gary will have punched Daniel for nothing.

Hope Maria sees the nasty side to him, but doesn’t look like she will.

Bethany has a shower at Daniel's. Please don't say that's Sinead's dressing gown she's wearing.

The dressing gown only just mentioned by Adam. Poor Daniel. But Maria is more likely to have had the virus first, some friend of Liam will have had it, or a child of Gary's that he has forgotten about.
