New thread...

Will Yasmeen get her freedom or will she languish in the jail (where so many have before her!) by the end of this thread?

Doubtful!

Head screenwriter:
"Oi Pete, we're levering in Fizz next week, write something that lasts 1 minute 30 seconds, OK?
And John.. we are still paying Imran you know, and he hasn't been on screen for 4 weeks, so do something with him perhaps having a conversation with Seb, no idea what, make it up as you go along
While you're at it, forget Yasmeen and Geoff for a few weeks, she's banged up anyway and Geoff is living on his own with nothing to say, let's save it because it's the only decent storyline this year."

@Roussette has nailed it 😄👍

wizzbangfizz · 27/06/2020 15:30

Doesn't Imran have kids with his ex wife? Two I recall?

eggandonion · 27/06/2020 15:32

I forgot he has an ex wife. I'd be a great screen writer. If he had kids would he not take them on days out or to a caravan? Maybe a cottage in the lakes.

wizzbangfizz · 27/06/2020 15:35

Maybe I've got it wrong!

YouDirtyMare · 27/06/2020 15:41

Bloody hell, I bet the script writers hate us

Fiddlersgreen · 27/06/2020 15:53

I thought Toyah and Imran lived with Aliya and Ryan?

Starbonnet123 · 27/06/2020 15:54

@PinkDaydreams ah Thankyou , I must have missed that bit Smile

Roussette · 27/06/2020 16:04

I just wonder....

I am finding it all far more disjointed than it ever used to be.

Is it because suddenly they went from 6 to 3 episodes a week and each double episodes were written as mini stories so that's why we're find the writing a bit crap?

eggandonion · 27/06/2020 16:10

I think so, like they are written as two episodes per day but they don't make sense as stand alone.

AllAboutHallowsEve · 27/06/2020 16:19

Geoff was never nice at the beginning. He took the piss out of Audrey on the hospital radio when she first bumped into him. And he also bullied Brian over some seeds. I think he secretly dug them up or something, while Brian couldn't understand why they weren't growing. It showed a nasty streak.

PoloNeckKnickers · 27/06/2020 16:22

Don't Imran and Toyah share with Craig? I thought they moved out of Nick and Leanne's flat when Imran accused Nick of being responsible for Rana's death. Does Ryan still live in the flat where Michelle and Robert lived? Where does Alya live?

crunchypeanutbutterontoast · 27/06/2020 17:12

Yes what’s happened to Robert’s flat? And where do Brian and Cathy live? Does anyone remember Cathy used to have a big house when she was a hoarder?

PinkDaydreams · 27/06/2020 17:14

Oh yeah I forgot Cathy was a hoarder!

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 27/06/2020 17:19

Yes what’s happened to Robert’s flat

Shhh Dont mention Robert. He has been expunged, deleted, censored and forgotten about. I reckon he annoyed someone high up in ITV...

Roussette · 27/06/2020 17:25

When was the last time Robert was on... ?

What happened to the irish mother and his baby. I think there's something wrong with me when it comes to Corrie. I have the memory of a goldfish Shock

Robert is dead. I think Vicky took the baby back to Ireland.
crunchypeanutbutterontoast · 27/06/2020 17:56

I think it’s quite safe to mention Robert without fear of him popping up, the last we saw of him he was dead. Although thinking about it there was no funeral, so who knows.. anything could happen!!

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 27/06/2020 18:03

It really is weird that Robert was a huge part of the street for ages. With Tracy for a while, owned the bistro with Nick, with Michelle and her lads and then has a hidden baby with another woman.

Then bang.. shot.. dead, forgotten about completely. No send off, no wake in the rovers, no funeral scenes, no tearful music and sad scenes etc.

Maybe he will be back in a shock comeback with his child from ireland.

They live in the flat next to Rita - the one where she and Alec Gilroy briefly had inter-connecting doors. (The one Ken was living in until ‘recently’, for those following the classic episodes.)

I think the return of Cathy’s hoarding tendencies would be a good storyline for her.

Oh I wouldn’t be so sure!! We’re still being subjected to the odd Sinead appearance.

eddiemairswife · 28/06/2020 12:09

I would be happy for Robert to be resurrected if it would mean never having to see Daniel and his beard showing Bertie that awful recording of Sinead's dying message.

desperatehousewife21 · 28/06/2020 13:21

Yeah I’d happily not see Sinead’s video messages ever again. Once is ok to show that she’d made them for Bertie when he gets older. We don’t need to see them every week.

Honeyroar · 29/06/2020 23:34

Oh god how long are they going to drag out the Oliver story? Leanne is driving me mad flouncing out of offices.

StillCoughingandLaughing · 29/06/2020 23:40

Does anyone else dearly love Emma?
