Corrie Thread - NO SPOILERS please! 2m apart on the cobbles!

[PennyRoyal]

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?

😂😂😂

@JamieLeeCurtains

Ed has got to be on the scale of 'My missus has photos of the producer fellating Donald Trump and the CIA put a call in'.

Ive seen the photo... It's not pleasant...

Almost as bad as the one Ken had of Tony Warren, a tub of vaseline and a small clan of gerbils in gerbil sized wetsuits..

And Mary - Church drama group, where everyone laughs kindly at her because she is good at running the raffle at the Christmas Fair.

Mary at an Am Dram yes! Where she has to play 3 parts because they don't have enough volunteers for all the parts

@EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide

I agree about Gary's hair, it's like the hair cut of a drug dealers five year old son.

His hair reminds me of a croissant every time I look at him.

@PinkDaydreams

Did Sophie go traveling? She was meant to go with her lawyer girlfriend but I can’t remember what happened? Also (I’m not going to say her name) where has Sophie’s sister gone?! One of the worst actresses ever so I hope she doesn’t come back now I’ve mentioned her!!

I know she is no Oscar worthy actress but I do have a soft spot for Rosie! She is so daft she just makes me laugh, though she used to be a right scheming little madam in the Stape years but as usual in Corrieland had a personality transplant. Remember Tim’s face when she was doing aerobics in the front room in her bra?!

I like her too. Is Paula working on yasmeens case, she has no time to go on a gap year.

May son used to work as a car mechanic and his overalls were always caked with oil.His hair and hands as well.Kevin and his co workers always have spotlessly clean overalls, Tyrone nearly aways has his top of boiler suit tied round his waist! What protection that gives his top clothing goodness only knows. And there was Abby wearing make up and not a hair out of place and of course a spotless boiler suit.
My prediction is the engine falling on her is lead up to her getting her twins back.I could be wrong of course.
Sorry but I still find Gemma unbearable

The croissant picture is so funny!!!

I find Gemma unbearable too nildesperandum. I recoil slightly when I'm watching her with that hanging-open mouth of hers and whiny voice. Ches is another one who can't act. He seemed such a good child actor but he's turned into an unconvincing adult.

Che always seems to be pulling a face, like he’s keeping in a fart!

Toyah is so vanilla now, she used to be so feisty, I switch off when she's on now

Who thinks Gemma's resurrected new bestie who was a bully is up to something?

I do.

Whose man will she steal. Or will she take over the factory.

@Roussette I agree, I also think she’s up to something but I don’t know why she would be? She said she isn’t friends with the rest of the group anymore but I think she is

Maybe some publicity story, she’s friends with the Freshco woman and they’re going to do a story on her about how she can’t cope with parenting or some other rubbish?! Freshco woman didn’t seem happy when they pulled out of the deal so she may want revenge?

Ooooh... you need a fat fee for that very plausible storyline PinkDaydreams
I'll get on to the Corrie script writers right away

No fee wanted, just get rid of a few rubbish characters instead, obviously as agreed by fellow mumsnetters!

If she's not up to something then she'll be working at the cafe/knicker factory/kebab shop/bistro by e end of the month.

On the other hand she may end up shagging Adam/Gary/David etc etc

That's what usually happens.

@Roussette

Who thinks Gemma's resurrected new bestie who was a bully is up to something?

I do.

Me too! They did that with Bethany though I think.

Since when has having done that already stopped the Corrie scriptwriters?

Just watching an old Silent Witness from about 2005 and both sleazy bistro man and Yasmeen are in it. Gemma's mum (forget the character's name) has been in a few. Would love Ed to pop up to see if his acting has deteriorated over the years! Will catch up with Corrie later!

My prediction is the engine falling on her is lead up to her getting her twins back.

She can’t get them back. They’ve been adopted.

If Abby is a recovering drug addict why didn’t she tell the hospital she couldn’t have morphine? Soaps keep forgetting little details like that.

Gemma’s mum was Dixy in Casually
