Is this the lead up to The Weatherfield One? Deidre hasn't thought about paying the mortgage or the gold card.

Kindperson · 21/03/2021 13:30

I thought that about the taxi and also imagine the cost! He went from Rovers to Airport to Oak whatever road and then waited then took her home. Must have been double time at least!

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 21/03/2021 15:18

Oh yes, MrsDoctorDear, this is definitely the lead-in to The Weatherfield One storyline!

As Deirdre so rightly said on Friday 😲

There is more to come...

Ha ha can't waitGrin 2 episodes a day is not enough. Me and DH toyed with the idea of saving them up for the week but every night it's 'quick get Corrie on!' pure nostalgia.

I'm loving watching the downfall of smug Deirdre.
She needs to go down for a long time ... for the haircut at least. Did Audrey do that in the dark, with a knife and fork, after one too many gins with her Alfie?

x2boys · 21/03/2021 17:53

@SophieB100🤣 I'm not commenting on the hair ,but yes she has been far to smug and condescending recently ,I bet Liz is secretly gloating 😂

StillCoughingandLaughing · 21/03/2021 18:17

Even at the time, people were asking what the hell was happening with Deirdre’s hair. So it can’t even be blamed on changing fashions!

I do remember long ‘sideburns’ being fashionable for women, but below the chin is taking the piss Grin

MrsDoctorDear · 21/03/2021 18:19

Dreary has been a right cow and very condescending to poor Liz. Going on about her kitchen and dishwasher. Smug mare.

And I agree about the hair, shocking sideboards. Really winds me upGrin

StillCoughingandLaughing · 21/03/2021 18:23

I watched Corrie religiously at this point, but have no recollection of Mike offering Liz a job at t’factory. Where is it going?

Talking of hair, isn’t Janice’s suspiciously glossy for a backstreet fag-ash Lil?

SophieB100 · 21/03/2021 18:33

Yes, Janice does have remarkably shiny hair.
I don't recall Mike offering Liz a job either.
Someone else who grates on me - Judy "but she's maa baaaby Garrry" Mallett. God, I though Fizz could shout out every line in woeful Corrie of today, but Juuuuday could give her some lessons.

Exactly! He never does anything that he won't benefit from, so what is his motive taking on somebody who isn't trained?
MrsSteveMcDonald · 21/03/2021 19:54

Still yonks behind. Fiona's mum doesn't half remind me of Lydia in current Emmerdale, maybe she should have played a relative of Diane

StillCoughingandLaughing · 21/03/2021 21:19

I wonder if a Mike and Liz affair was planned but ultimately never happened?

Housewife2010 · 22/03/2021 06:37

I really want to take a pair of scissors to Deirdre's sideburns.

eggandonion · 23/03/2021 17:27

Nick was very handsome when he was younger, you'd hardly recognise him now with a new head!
Did Emily always have a car? Isn't Ashley nice? Isn't Spider lovely?
I enjoyed today's episodes.

x2boys · 23/03/2021 17:42

Didn't Emily buy a car off Vera ?Yes This was the most handsome version of Nick ,sadly Adam Ricketts hasn't aged that well 😢

Mairyhinge · 23/03/2021 17:46

Hope this photo shows up! This is Adam rickit now!! Does anyone else see a very strong resemblance to Ben price who plays Nick now?

x2boys · 23/03/2021 17:52

Yes they could definitely be related.

justthecat · 23/03/2021 18:57

Emily playing the didgeridoo was ridiculous

BewfulYungGelLozza · 24/03/2021 15:44

I remember having a massive crush on Spider when I was younger, I seem to go for that sort of bone structure, way better than Adam Rickitt IMO BlushGrin.

Me too, I still think he's quite nice!
eggandonion · 25/03/2021 17:01

Poor Deirdre.

Housewife2010 · 25/03/2021 18:19

Has anyone noticed Frankie's sideburns too? I don't remember sideburns being a 90s female fashion trend.

StillCoughingandLaughing · 25/03/2021 20:07

It was definitely a trend, but even at the time, people were laughing at Deirdre’s.

Even 23 years on, I still can’t fathom Jon’s motives. Was he just a total fantasist?

StillCoughingandLaughing · 25/03/2021 20:09

For all those of you saying to yourselves, ‘Ooh, what’s she been in?’ after today’s episodes:

The bank manager is Wendy of Emmerdale fame.

Frankie is Imran and Rama’s mother in modern day Corrie.
