Does anyone else want to know what the HELL happened to Tracy?? I get she hasn't spoken to anyone else since March but she was NICE. Not rude, not snarky, not sarcastic, towards the cardigan prossi ... that's a complete character change. It's TRACY!! She's fab when she's rude (like Blanche!).

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 10:38

Yes, Mairy, I can't really see the point of Tracy being in that scene, apart from to say, 'I've had a kidney transplant'. (Yeah we know, it's the writers who forgot).

As a plot device to discover Cardi, they used Adam coming back, which also allowed Daniel to say 'sex worker' at 7.45pm, how very modern and ground-breaking and creepy.

I know it has been difficult to keep making episodes, but these are like disjointed dreams! Still watching it though.

Smallsteps88 · 02/09/2020 11:25

At least there was an element of realism regarding Tracy's kidney & shielding.

It was very obviously just clumsily shoe horned in because they’ve remembered (or been reminded by us Wink) she would be shielding.

On that point- if she was shielding she couldn’t actually be looking after Bertie so the whole story is bollocks.

Yes, Mairy, I can't really see the point of Tracy being in that scene, apart from to say, 'I've had a kidney transplant'. (Yeah we know, it's the writers who forgot).

Yep that was the sole purpose of her scenes. Total rubbish.

ColonelNobbyNobbs · 02/09/2020 13:34

Is Carla shielding then too? Even tho Peter is out and about talking to everyone on the street

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 13:42

Well she should be, but that's a very big bubble Peter's got there ...

PoloNeckKnickers · 02/09/2020 18:00

Has Peter always had a fringe? He just looks wrong somehow.

Roussette · 02/09/2020 19:29

Peter looked ridiculous with that fringe! Hoping it's gone tonight.

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 19:34

And here's the magical alcohol licence

Libertylee · 02/09/2020 19:38

David not wearing his mask to get takeaway coffee...Dev sounding croaky

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 19:41

Oh here's the plot part where Tim looks for a socket for the hoover plug and der ... der ... DER!!! What's this, Lassie?

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 02/09/2020 19:48

I wish some one would kick the everliving shit out of Geoff.. Aliya could do it and claim self defense..
"He attacked me officer and just happened to accidently fall repeatedly into the frying pan I was swinging..."

Monday suggests selling alcohol.
Wednesday alcohol arrives!

Daft.

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 19:57

It really is insulting.

Roussette · 02/09/2020 20:00

I felt Aliya's meltdown was ridiculous. Apart from getting cross with Geoff, she's kept her cool in general... then this

Honeyroar · 02/09/2020 20:05

Tim was remarkably nice to her though.

JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 20:15

Well obviously when you're running a restaurant you don't shove all the unwanted boxes of booze out the back, or ring the Council's licencing dept, or actually ask the chef to get yer arse in here now, please!

No, just wave a broken bottle around.

Like fuck would Alya ever do that.

This seems Hollyoakie, not Corrie. All those carefully sculpted characters, just trashed. The audience ridiculed.

PoloNeckKnickers · 02/09/2020 20:41

Shall I bother watching tonight's episode? Got stuck in a Silent Witness black hole.

PennyRoyal · 02/09/2020 20:53

Wondering why sleazy Bistro man keeps pooping up?

Where's Eileen these days? And Brian?

Tim couldn't fix Geoff's hoover, Aliyah got annoyed after Geoff cancelled the cheque... I mean cancelled the chef.. she threatened him with broken bottle.
Shona got her boobs out in t'street, but she had a bra on.
Devs got money problems by the look of it.
Sean and Mary are BFFs

That's about the highlights.

The hoover will be the key player on Friday. It's a better actor than a lot of the current cast.

PoloNeckKnickers · 02/09/2020 21:11

Hey thanks for that comprehensive round up of events, MonkeyToesOfDoom. You've added 30 minutes to my life 😀

I was cleaning while half watching. Did Tim discover something at the plug socket?
JamieLeeCurtains · 02/09/2020 22:38

@Smallsteps88, no, not yet. I got a bit ahead of myself. I assumed he would ferret about and find some evidence, Like the recording devices or whatnot. Maybe on Friday.

Or maybe there's something inside the hoover. Like a key to a wonderful lost kingdom where all of this makes sense and people don't keep having personality transplants mid-week.

Smallsteps88 · 02/09/2020 22:41

When Geoff was farting about with ten hoover on Monday I thought he would find/or miss a forgotten piece of tape in the shape of an X on the socket. Maybe Tim will find one.
