LOL.

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 14:06

Megan?

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:06

Even Emma wouldn't bother with the gardener.

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 14:07

Where have I seen the daughter before?

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:07

Jimmi and Megan was a HUGE disaster!

(She was awful in Doctors, the actress- but great in the Umbrella Academy).

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 14:08

I can't remember who Megan was

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:10

ha! I told you so Grin

@RaspberryCoulis

The only GP surgery in the UK which doesn't ask your name, date of birth or reason for an appointment.
Weirdly, I just called my surgery, launched into a list of why I need an appointment, got one made, and never got asked for my details (they have phone numbers linked with patient details when you ring, I think) - just a cheery 'the dr will phone you tomorrow nervous ...

Where's Joe?

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:11

Easily she was a therapist/counsellor, who worked at the practice for a bit, who ended up having a fling with Jimmi- and was bonkers. It did not end well.

Namaste Grin

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:11

Nervous - spooky!

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 14:12

Not the one who was his ex-wife?

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:15

Easily they are probably not supposed to be working with the child actors due to Covid . It is due to SD and chaperones. Certainly the case for Corrie, anyway.

They will just not mention him -and hope we don't notice?

He was in a 'previously' bit (when he broke Harper) but hasn't been seen yet.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:16

Easily no- that was Amanda (Emma Samms)- who came back just to take all his money (which is why he isn't a partner anymore).

Slightly gutted I didn't get the dress and turn it into a top.

I have to say if Alexa was capable of reading poetry like that I might get one. But seriously is any trying-to-be-AI system capable of inflection?

Who else is playing the pre or post covid scene game? It's very entertaining.

Binglebong · 05/11/2020 14:31

I though Sid gor with Megan, not Jimmy?

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:41

You're right, it was Sid- after Jimmi asked her out first- I think he split something on her? I know he liked her first. I think Megan was a bit of jealous sort.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:45

Our Alexa doesn't get used as much now that we rarely ever leave the house Grin. It used to be used to 'babysit' the dog- we would leave the radio on, so he didn't get lonely when we went shopping.

There is always someone in, now- so it really doesn't get used much.

I occasionally ask it to find my keys (it is connected to a tile on my keyring) Grin.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:50

In the same way we might not see Joe, we might not see any 'older' patients- again, on Corrie (this was one of the first soaps to return to filming, so my only reference, I don't actually watch it Grin)- the older actors/over 70 mainly - were not working, due to Covid. So storylines might reflect this- even if they are operating in a Post-Covid Letherbridge Grin.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 14:52

Which leads me onto this (I'm waffling a bit - but I thought about her yesterday)- I wonder if Eve, Al's mum will get a mention? I like Eve. She has been a big part of the past few years. In reality, if Al continued working, I would imagine Eve was on her own during the early months of lockdown.

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 16:16

Ah yes, I hadn't thought about the child and elderly actors not working. The social distancing is very obvious in some scenes (the mother/daughter/gardener reveal). I'm also on the lookout for the body doubles mentioned in that video on FB the other day.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 16:24

I was reading the FB page, and someone on there said that Harper was voiced by Elisabeth DW's RL partner - I'm not sure if that is the 'new' voice (is Harper's fixed voice different to his 'old' voice?) because it wasn't voiced by her RL partner previously.

EasilyDepleted · 05/11/2020 16:52

I noticed "Harper 1" in the credits.

Raahh · 05/11/2020 17:04

I have just remembered it is not on tomorrow Sad
