Corrie Thread - No spoilers please! When we will run out of episodes?

[ajandjjmum]

Hopefully not before the end of this thread!

Jim not recognising Liz would be a fabulous storyline. I dread to think what the writers are concocting on their zoom calls just now.
Ken is lucky he is home now, avoiding the Corona and being minded by his family.

Now isn't that funny... I hated watching Jim don't you know

He kept the same head but at some point had a nasty personality transplant.

Could never stand Jim, hope he never returns.

Ah, I really liked Jim, and I think Liz looks lovely (in a Street kind of way where the older women, bar Eileen, are always way over made up and over-dressed). I also think it’s perhaps not the best idea to be a bit harsh about her face as the actress who plays her has had problems w depression, so whatever makes her happy, you know?

I never like Jim either so I didn’t. He had some funny lines/quirks though but wouldn’t like to see him back. The actor isn’t the most pleasant person either so when he was on screen for the last story I couldn’t see past his RL personality.

Mind you lynne Perry who played Ivy Perry was sacked in the 80s for having a face lift

I don't mean to be derogatory but it was gobsmackingly awful, her final scenes in Corrie looks like a completely different person.

I thought Lynn Perry was sacked because she leaked stories after having a few drinks.

I've heard that before about the man who plays Jim Chandler

Builder dad's acting has reached the Dev standard of awfulness.

I’m irritated by this Oliver storyline - YET ANOTHER serious medical condition like the many others which Street characters have (MS, HIV, brain tumour, kidney transplant, depression, amputation, epilepsy etc. etc.) which are swiftly forgotten about and thereafter appear to have minimal impact on their lives.

Amy having a day off school

How could anyone like Jim when he was violent towards Liz ? There was a DV storyline.

I’d forgotten that, I think it was early in the days of me and Corrie. I am just a sucker for a Northern Irish accent, it’s my kryptonite.

In 1994, "Poison" Ivy was despatched to a religious retreat from which she never returned - Perrie had been sacked from Coronation Street after having cosmetic surgery to give her fuller lips.

Just googled it but perhaps the other things suggested upthread didn't help either

I quite liked Gemmas speech on the vlog today. Given the vlog is cringey but I like what she said. Because it's all very true in the media world. Selling you a perfect picture, trying to aspire to be like that when it isn't reality. Good message

Yes but it all felt like another miraculous ending to a problem - Gemma is all bubbly and normal again..

So Gemma has been to one meeting and is like s different person. The miracle of Coronation Street again 🙄

X post 😊

😄
And she didn’t even have to go into the room at Wetherfield General that’s solely for residents of Coronation St!!

A shame Nurse Aggie didn't bump into Tim & Sally so we could see how Geoff was doing.

Don't really get Nick's reaction?
Gemma cured, after one group therapy session. In fairness to Steve, the doctor vis absolutely shite. They haven't given any information at all.

I still can't warm to any of the Aggie family; they are all terrible actors.

On itv hub, it has an episode dated 23 May, is this a mistake?!

I saw that too. I didn't want to tempt fate by trying it out in case I got sucked into a temporal vacuum.
