Corrie Thread - No SPOILERS. Jonny, Scott & A Tub of Lube Edition.

[MonkeyToesOfDoom]

No spoilers...

If it ain't been happened in the show..
It's a spoiler... So... SHUT IT..

I really can't fathom why Ray would do this (or how) and how on earth if David called the water board did Ray's man intercept it?

It’s so stupid. I can only guess it’s because they’ve let one person do the whole thing from writing, scripting, directing and filming. And whoever it is has got some serious dirt on every single other member of cast and crew so they don’t object

If the Platt family are now lounging in a posh hotel I wonder how long it will be before Sarah-Lou hooks up with the nearest man

Or is it time for Gail to get a new hubby?

Do you think they have different writers “living in” for a few days, who don’t confer and direct their own, totally separate, plot lines? That could be why certain stories get picked up and others put down for a couple of weeks!!

Yep! You got it there Honeyroar !

Well they need to sort it out!! How hard is it to have a zoom meeting every few days?

If we can manage to plan things they should be able to do it too, half an hour on this thread would sort them.

"Oh my god my fucking garden has disappeared, 999 hello can you help me, my garden is now a crater, emergency services are on the way don't panic and move everyone out of danger"

Meanwhile in Corrie, "ooh look at that, I'll call water board"

Christ on a bike, how much do these muppets get paid for writing this crap.

After Wednesdays brilliant episode and brilliant acting they should be ashamed to have put this on.

Also agree with the pp who said Sally was the best in the cab office conversation, she's great, I love Sally too.

The Shona storyline ..... ridiculous - make it stop, so irritating and unlike real life. As is the Gemma and her invisible quads - they all need to go asap to retain credibility.

Agree on the Shona bit... creating the non drama of her bouncing on the trampoline and the sinkhole appearing, was she in it. No drama at all. Just silly daft unbelievable stuff.

The intern must've looked through the tapes and thought... can't do aeroplane crash too much make up needed for injuries, too much rubble.... can't do 'car running into whoever on cobbles' we do that monthly.... ahh look I've found footage of a sinkhole and we can transpose them looking down it... brilliant!

I was watching on catch up yesterday and got as far as Cathy talking to the dummy then switched off. Life is way too short to waste watching that shite.

I wasn’t watching Corrie 10y ago so no idea on who Natasha was and the son. Quick break down of the plot anyone?

Shonas illness is just a joke now. She can do whatever outrageous thing for a laugh or drama. Forever. We just have to put up with it. If her condition is long term and no sign of improvement then she needs 24h care as she can’t seem to look after herself at all. The fact that David is trying to build a relationship with an adult with behaviour and understanding of your average 7year old. Isn’t going go well is it? In fact I just find it creepy. Surely she can’t consent to a sexual relationship if at the same time she thinks it’s ok to take your clothes off in the street. She can’t make reasonable decisions about her sexual health or contraception and the like.

The coat thing was on a different planet. The Todd story line also is dire. How many conversations can you have about trying to find someone. Without doing anything. Or same Conversation about I don’t mind if you look for your ex.

Shona had a shock and ate a magic banana, so she'll be fine now.
Natasha was a hairdresser and Nick's girlfriend. She was pregnant, he wasn't supportive, she had a termination, he wanted the baby, she tried to get pregnant. Gail worked in the health centre and found out, told Nick, she went away in a taxi. She was lucky, she wasn't seriously murdered, she can come back (and people can google her).

Why was she lucky she wasn’t murdered? Don’t want google as new/old characters tend to bring up spoilers for the come back story line.

Who knew that you could do a sinkhole to order.

I think they meant she was lucky she wasn’t murdered so she was able to come back?

If a bloody great sink hole opened up in my garden very close to my house I’d not be stood there peering into it. You’d be out of there, surely, and ringing the emergency services.

Just watched the last few episodes and what the hell is going on! How do you order a sink hole? And Ray being in the back street bistro all the time when he has a posh hotel to run is weird.

Yes, you want to go in a taxi. Being murdered or going to a far place like Scotland or Bristol means goodbye for ever.

I kept thinking the trampoline bouncing was so that Shona fell off and banged her head and ended up cured. Me too! Or that she was going to be at the bottom of the hole, magically cured. Tbh, as unrealistic as that would be I'd prefer it to the current Shona storyline which is just really awful.

And, aside from all the other weird stuff that happened in Friday's episode, I kept finding myself fancying David with his hair and his beard and his denim jacket. Why? I didn't see that one coming for sure!

I do remember Natasha and the abortion storyline. So will this be like Leanne loses a son while Nick gains one?

Or Steve gains yet another child!

And, aside from all the other weird stuff that happened in Friday's episode, I kept finding myself fancying David with his hair and his beard and his denim jacket. Why?

God, no! But as I'm probably twice the size of him, that's probably why!

I think there's a website out there called sinkholesareus.com. They'll recreate one in your back garden for fun!

sorry that looks a bit rude now I've typed it

I don't think yer man from the bistro does fun. And calling him Ray and the cafe owner Roy is causing confusion here when I try to explain to my dh what's happening.

I quite like Ray for some reason i can't fathom, i was hoping he might turn nice and be a keeper. I think David is starting to resemble a garden gnome, must be the beard. I imagine if Ray made them a really good, way over value offer for that house David would grab it, no need for bloody sinkhole nonsense.
