Couldn't see a new thread so started this one. So we're now into a show of two halves, edited together - pre and post lockdown! Who's shouting "before" "after" at each scene?

SmallSteps I feel like Gary knows about Maria and Dr Ali and forgave her? Or am I imagining that?

ColonelNobbyNobbs · 15/08/2020 07:30

I thought the same Porpentina about the women being neighbours. Thought they lived somewhere naice

Roussette · 15/08/2020 07:55

I thought the Ben Shepherd blanket bit was filler again. A scene they've done some time or other just to stick in the middle of stuff. It has no relevance to any current storylines which means it can be slotted in any old time.
Totally daft!

So glad Faye saw Geoff and his nastiness and I think it was striking to her from him spitting out insults to all nicey nice.

I know TheFormerPorpentinaScamander I fancy David too and it feels wrong but there it is Blush

ajandjjmum · 15/08/2020 11:34

I think the blanket scene was from Rousette's 'Bank of Dross'.

Are they ever going to find Geoff's recordings? I so wished Faye had hung around on the stairs a little longer, and the scene between Sally and Geoff had developed. Corrie like this slow burn thing though don't they - remember we were begging them to kill of Phelan, but he kept coming back!

Smallsteps88 · 15/08/2020 11:56

The scene outside Preston’s petals where Sean was telling Mary that singing out the window of number 11 wasn’t the same as singing on a balcony in Italy was so out of place considering her singing from number 11 was two weeks ago. Another one from the bank of dross. They need to schedule these filler scenes with a bit of thought as to whats happening elsewhere in the episode.

Smallsteps88 · 15/08/2020 11:58

They’re obviously using up all the scenes they filmed on Sean and mary’s Day in the studio. Grin

It would be more interesting if it was Norris on the blanket, or anyone recognisable.
I had a neighbour who was obsessed with Jeremy paxman, so I suppose anything is possible. She was a bit like Mary actually. Her brother was called Andrew, but she called him Roderick.

Smallsteps88 · 15/08/2020 12:39

Her brother was called Andrew, but she called him Roderick.

Oh I can totally imagine Mary having a brother and calling him Roderick in her very unique voice. Grin

Grin Deffo!

Totally agree Smallsteps88. They rotate who they call in to keep numbers down, and film twaddle and just slot it in.

Did anyone else find the opening music and halfway through was a bit odd too?

eggandonion mouth agape at your neighbour and her Jeremy Paxman fetish, if she ever met him she would probably squeal in delight if he was rude to her! Grin

eggandonion · 15/08/2020 17:49

She sent him a teaset as a gift, he returned it.
She left a neighbour once minding her cats, and didn't tell him they were both ginger. She returned to find two ginger guys and a very confused black Persian.
She was excellent!

Smallsteps88 · 15/08/2020 19:01

Hang on, Jeremy Paxman returned a gift from a fan???

Shock

How sodding rude!

eggandonion · 15/08/2020 19:48

It might have been sensible. Perhaps a knitted teacosy would have been ok, but a teaset might be too big? Something like that, maybe Mary will clarify in her storyline!

Smallsteps88 · 15/08/2020 19:50

@Smallsteps88

😂😂😂

“Awks”

I love David!

That bit was amazing 😍
EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 16/08/2020 10:28

Maria's dress looked really poorly fitting, and her hair was exactly the same as she has it every day, felt like they made zero effort to make her look wow.
Has Adam actually dumped Sarah do we think?

Roussette · 16/08/2020 10:40

Totally agree! My first thought about her dress was... blimey, they had a root about at the back of the wardrobe for that wedding dress.

Gary looked no better than he normally does even though he was suit etc... but you can't polish a turd Grin

Smallsteps88 · 16/08/2020 11:47

Maria’s dress looked as though she could have spun around inside it and the dress stay still! Grin

Is Sarah really going to fall into Gary’s arms? It looks like that’s what they’re building up to. Urgh. Sarah, fire up a braincell!

JamieLeeCurtains · 16/08/2020 12:07

I suspect Gary won't be able to get through the vows at the thought of Sarah, and do his special 'acting conflicted' face, you know, the one that looks like all his other faces.

Smallsteps88 · 16/08/2020 12:18

He always looks like he’s trying to fart.

eggandonion · 16/08/2020 12:38

Poor Maria, it must be time for her to find a decent man. Bring back dr Ali, preferably stepping out of a shower.

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 16/08/2020 13:17

😂😂 Sarah must be losing her eyesight as well as her brain cells, I mean it's not even a fair match is it, Gary the gerbil or the big hot Scottish hunk!

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 16/08/2020 13:18

Oooh yes I used to like Ali before he stopped washing.

JamieLeeCurtains · 16/08/2020 15:25

And then will Maria fall weeping into Adam's arms and thus begins yet another grindingly tedious love quadrangle.

PoloNeckKnickers · 16/08/2020 15:40

Although because there are 4 participants, wouldn't it be a love square ?
